Today’s result should open a few eyes. Fans have been falling over themselves to hail Allardyce as some sort of genius because he has guided West Ham to second place in the table, but some of us – a very small hub or cabal – have kept pointing out that this is a crap division and that any “improvement” …

West Ham 1 Burnley 2 – The Day the Luck Ran Out!
Posted on 03 December 2011.
This was coming. We have been getting results whilst playing poorly. So, no surprise that when we did play well in the first half and deservedly took the lead early in the second, that we get sucker punched and end up losing a game. Did Green have a save to make? He retrieved the ball from the…

4-5-1 with O’Brien, Cole and Collison reinstated!
Posted on 03 December 2011.
So Allardyce has ditched 4-4-2 and put all his eggs in the 4-5-1 / 4-3-3 formation. There remains a home formation and an away formation, with Diop figuring instead of Collison away from Upton Park and Collison coming in to add more attacking impetus for home games. Hopefully the set up with enable Nolan to operate in the hole. I …

O’Neil is manager of Sunderland; but for how long?
Posted on 03 December 2011.
When Geordie Steve Bruce was appointed manager of Sunderland, I said it would end in tears. And I suppose, wait long enough and any prediction like that about a manager will eventually be proved right. But the truth is, Bruce has been a disaster, not so much because of Sunderland’s league position – they are in the Premiership…

Please welcome the newest Hammer to our club, after it was confirmed late yesterday, 17 year old Pele Ruddock, who has signed a 2 and half year deal to join West Ham United from Boreham Wood.

Will the Clarets provoke the blues?
Posted on 03 December 2011.
The arrival of Burnley at the Boleyn brings to mind Dickens’ opening to “A Tale of Two Cities”: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” Let’s roll the clock back to the 28th of November 2009 and remember one of the most remarkable games of the last three years. It ended up 5-3, of course, amazing…

Rumour of the season (by far)

Junior plans to hault our run
Posted on 02 December 2011.
JUNIOR Stanislas is ready to strike a blow against the Hammers, and make them regret letting him go. West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has already expressed his concern that Stanislas and Zavon Hines could come back to haunt him tomorrow. The former Blackburn Rovers and Bolton manager allowed the duo to join Burnley in August. And Stanislas…

A kind draw or not?
Posted on 02 December 2011.
Well England’s draw certainly could have been much tougher but any claims that our group is “easy” are very wide of the mark. Sure we beat Sweden at Wembley but how many years did we have to go between victories over them? The odds must be on yet another daw. So that…

Scott Parker Premiership Player of the Month!
Posted on 02 December 2011.
Congratulations to Scott Parker, Harry Redknapp and Tottenham Hotspurs. What a fantastic bargain Parker is proving to be! No wonder some clubs were prepared to part with a lot more than £5m to prise Scotty away from West Ham. What a shame that the Hammers Hero refused to go anywhere other than Spurs…

West Ham to sign Peter Griffin!
Posted on 02 December 2011.
How else do you explain a headline of “Family Guy” on the Official Site? It’s a lovely idea! Sam would have somebody fatter than him on the playing staff and if Peter brought along Quagmire, the misdemeanours of Alan Pants Down Pardew would suddenly pale by comparison. Brian could come along too and would be perfectly at home…

West Ham Tenth in the Premiership!
Posted on 01 December 2011.
It’s just like having Curbishley back! West Ham are tenth in the Premiership table! Not on points of course, we are in the Championship for pity’s sake, but for expenditure on football agents. What a waste of bloody money! Man Utd only paid out £1.3m more, and look how many points they got last season…

Boys are back in town
Posted on 01 December 2011.
So this weekend we welcome Burnley to the Boleyn along with a couple of our old boys. I have to admit I thought Burnley were onto big things capturing Hines and Stani for literally peanuts! Between them Hines and Stani have played a total of 24 games and scored a grand total of 0 goals. Even more surprising (more …
