Disappointingly, Leeds still have not sold 1500 of their ticket allocation for the game at Peterborough. This is odd given Leeds fans claim they have the best away support in the country. When West Ham travelled there last season, there were more West Ham fans in London …

You could have knocked me down with a feather when I heard that Dyer had scored twice at Loftus Road. Then I realised it was Nathan Dyer, netting for Swansea! And Kieron? Well he didn’t start of course! Season 2 and he has managed a grand total of…

Sullivan has tried to justify the parsimonious attitude to new signings by explaining that money is still owed to Shafting United to compensate them for being shit and getting relegated. They have had £15m already and there’s another £10m…

Congratulations to Southampton for their spirited performance at the Etihad today. True they lost and true Man City could have scored six before Southampton equalised, but the positive approach adopted by Adkins’ charges was a joy to see – and Lambert proved that …

After Green’s horror show yesterday, step up Ramis today. He was turned like a piglet on a rotisserie for Chelsea’s first goal and gave away an absurd penalty for Chelsea’s second. What a shame he opted for Wigan over West Ham eh?

I’ve just seen the first goal! My Mum could have saved it and she is in her eighties! And the curler into the top corner that England’s 666 went for with both hands! Five nil! And the gRs thought they were getting a bargain when they agreed a salary of 50k…

Just back from Lords. Average day of cricket but great result for West Ham! Captain Kev scored and the defence kept a clean sheet. Brilliant. Nothing to say about the game because I didn’t see it and I’m pissed – but my son tells …

Go back two years and we went into the first game of a new Premiership season full of hope after a superb pre season. Villa had lost their manager and with Grant at the helm, many of us cherished hope that the dark days of Zola …

So Warnock doesn’t hold out any hope of a take over this week, next week or even next month for that matter. Leeds fans keep firing from the hip and posting on here that the take over will happen tomorrow but tomorrow…

So even though Man City didn’t want him, Arsenal have still contrived to lose Van Persie to another English club. The fact that old nemesis Ferguson has prised away the only “great” left on Arsenal’s books must be all the more agonising for Wenger. Arsenal fans should be kept…

That’s it then, Warnock is buiding a relegation eleven! Four players from Portsmouth, one from Doncaster, and now, if the rumours are true, he is intent on signing the biggest Jonah since the Leviathan suffered an upset tummy! Yes, Freddie Piquionne could…

Remember how we sold Scott Parker for £5m and Cole for a relative pittance when we went down? Compare that to the Wolves approach. They have set ludicrous fees for Jarvis and Fletcher and are either playing poker very well or are determined to …

Stage one in the Italians’ conversion of Watford into a nursery club for Pozzo Wood’s Udinese. Why do you need to develop home grown talent when you can send Italian youngsters over to your very own Hertfordshire finishing school? Godfather Nani has accepted responsibility for explaining this one, putting…

Love him or hate him, you have to hand it to Warnock, he is a wily old sod. With the season about to kick off, Warnock has down played expectations of automatic promotion – why up the ante unnecessarily? – whilst setting a taget…

Gold has said that he wants us to win a domestic cup and the Capital One Cup (stupid bloody name isn’t it?) probably offers the best opportunity, given the clubs in Europe join late and the big boys only take it seriously from the semifinal…

I complained yesterday that there was nothing to write about, and Sullivan is clearly attuned to the sense of white noise surrounding the Boleyn. Not good for business that. Season ticket sales aren’t boosted by inertia. No news is bad news. He probably put a call through …

Rarely has it been so hard to find something to write about West Ham. There are no current transfer rumours, the tactics to be employed in the up coming season are hardly in question, and we still want to move to the Olympic Stadium, but there’s no update on our…

The Hornets won in the end but there wasn’t much of a sting in the performance. According to GianFredo, speaking after a narrow extra time one nil victory over League Two Wycombe Wanderers, the whole team need to “move the ball faster” but this is a familiar gripe to…

August 13, 2005. West Ham’s first game back in the Prem. I was in Venezuela, on a paradise beach with my radio glued to my ear, picking up BBC World Service through a white noise of interference. Reo-Coker, Etherington and Sheringham netted in a truly glorious…

I was always an Ovett man. I disliked Mr Establishment Coe, especially after he came out of the closet and declared himself a Thatcherite Conservative. I was opposed to the Olympics too. A dreadful waste of money in my book, and that was before…

No Nolan in Portugal and both Collins and Collison out of the Welsh squad for Wednesday’s international. McCartney was also absent in Braga, forcing Allardyce to play O’Brien at left back. Is there a mounting injury crisis at the Boleyn or is Doctor Evil sticking two fingers up to …

The signing of Diouf can be read in one of two ways. He has been knocking around all summer and Leeds haven’t shown any interest until now, perhaps because of the hope that they could afford much better. The move to sign him in the week…

It seems Hell Hadji isn’t all bad. I knew about the spat he had with Warnock but I didn’t appreciate the wisdom of the Spitting Image’s words. For the record, here’s what the Senegalese shit said: “This guy Warnock talks a lot of shit and everyone knows he talks…

I suppose there was a certain inevitability about this, given that Leeds DisUnited’s fans delight in the “Dirty” tag and have no say in the way their club is run anyway. When Allardyce invited Hell Hadji to West Ham for a trial, the…
