West Ham United are keen to take Darron Gibson. The Republic of Ireland international is down the pecking order at Manchester United, and his current contract is set to expire in the summer. Gibson almost joined Sunderland during the last window only to see the deal collapse at the last minute, but he could well seal a transfer…

It somehow seems a little disrespectful for Fernandes to be spinning his yarns on the day after Gary Speed’s death, but the guy is bursting with bull so I suppose he couldn’t keep it in for 24 hours. Just listen to the egotistic self publicist! Talking about the wheeze of tweeting the fans to ask them to nominate potential new signings…

Playing badly for most parts but still winning. Surely champions form aren’t we? What do you think at this moment in the season? Anyone remember the last time we finished champions of the (old)2nd Division? I think we have to go back to the days of B&W!! Guess the year…(don’t cheat) View This Poll

The Nativity play season is upon us, and many of you, I suspect, will be taking an afternoon off to sit in uncomfortable chairs in a school hall craning your neck for a fleeting glimpse of progeny in the part of fourth sheep or “angel that stands at the back…

There was a time when relegation from the Premier League was considered little short of a death sentence as clubs fought to deal with the dire financial consequences of losing their place among the elite. The experience can still be traumatic – witness Portsmouth’s woes following their relegation last summer – but parachute money has cushioned the …

Good to see Danny Fcuk the West Ham Fans Gabbidon playing his full part in helping QPR to defeat at Norwich. We Hammers fans are well used to seeing forwards unmarked in the six yard box with Gabbidon standing watching, so it is nice to know that Danny Boy is maintaining his West Ham form whilst playing …

Ex Hammer Jermaine Defoe has dismissed rumours that he might join QPR in January. Judas he may be, but he is not willing to walk out on Tottenham when things are looking so good – even if he isn’t playing; and there is just a suggestion that he doesn’t consider the Rs worthy of his …

Read a funny piece today about Gold trying to calm our fears about Tomkins leaving in January. Apparently he isn’t for sale but Gold said ‘we have to be realistic, Ronaldo wasn’t for sale at any price but he went for 80 million’ Cough up QPR. The price has been set…..

You only have to go back to 2008-09 to find Tottenham and West Ham finishing on the same points total in the Premiership. Then Zola worked his magic and ‘Arry transformed Tottenham, and the rest, as they say, is history. Look at Tottenham now! True they are only in third place in the Prem, whilst we have…

Milestones seem to be the new in-thing! Not long after England scored their 2000th international goal, West Ham have notched up something similar. The equaliser at the Ricoh Stadium was our 2000th away League goal, a feat that Carlton Cole admitted he never knew about but was pleased to have scored it anyway, …

Leicester 3 Palace 0. Oops, we could have done without that! True Palace started the game above Leicester in the table but we really didn’t want the Foxes running riot in the bins of the Championship. We remain nine points ahead of Pearson’s charges, but that gap could close quickly if Leicester start playing to their potential and our luck…

Dear God, how desperate are the Doctor Evil apologists? Over on the Org there is a thread running eulogising Allardyce, and the consensus is that Allardyce is doing a fantastic job, not because the team is playing well, but because the team is playing badly! The logic is so perverse it requires …

Interesting to read that Andy O’Brien has refused to play for Leeds and Grayson has said he will never play for the club again. This is hot on the heels of the Leeds manager insisting that there was no way the Anglo-Irishman would be allowed to go out on loan after he was linked with West Ham. O’Brien, …

Not perhaps a name to ring a bell with a many these days. West Ham United followers of my vintage, however, will recall what a steadfast guardian of the Hammers’ goal Ernie was and how he went on serving the club in various capacities until he was past 70. But this isn’t just …

I had nothing against the guy until this week, but his switch from Hull to Leicester in mid season is nothing short of disgraceful in my book. Fair enough if a Premiership club head hunts a manager in the Championship, but to jump ship and climb aboard a rival shitik is utterly despicable. Of course, we are not …

I’m confused. Isn’t there a rule limiting the number of clubs you can play for in a season? At this rate, Montano will play for every team in the bottom two divisions before the end of May. What is Allardyce doing to the guy? Nottingham is OK, but fancy sending him to Swindon! And …

£12m for Taarabt? Who are they kidding? There’s a report suggesting that Napoli fancy him, but the whole of Italy combined couldn’t afford to pay £12m at the moment, never mind the little donkeys of Seria A! PSG are also rumoured to be interested but surely not at that price tag. He looked…
