No, it’s not the beginning of a new winter of discontent, it’s just that Doncaster are not signing Piquionne on loan after all. Not that it matters that much. They would only have been paying a fraction of the Frenchman’s wages – just like they did with Ilunga. And talking of Herita, he hasn’t found himself a new club yet….

Blackburn’s Yakubu Hungry to Feed on QPR
Posted on 09 February 2012.
Typical! Cisse collects a red and rules himself out of a six pointer to end all six pointers, and meanwhile Yakubu has served his time and returns rested and hungry for the loser takes nothing showdown with QPR. Anything less than 3 points would represent disaster for Rovers and would surely drive…

Capello’s Gone! Come On Down Trevor Brooking!
Posted on 08 February 2012.
Just as I predicted yesterday, Capello has gone. http://thegamesgonecrazy.blogspot.com/2012/02/brooking-to-replace-capello-as-england.html I predicted it, but I’m still in a state of shock! For once the FA have got something right. Great in qualification but nobody really wanted him in charge for the Finals. Well nobody except John Terry! So now for…

Brooking to replace Capello as England Manager for European Championships
Posted on 07 February 2012.
With the perfect storm gathering around Capello following his backing of John Terry and criticism of the FA’s decision to stand him down from the captaincy, West Ham legend Sir Trevor Brooking is set to step into the breach and, with another former Hammer, Stuart Pearce, as his assistant, looks likely to lead England into the European Championships. Capello may…

Birmingham now the big threat
Posted on 07 February 2012.
So Birmingham are now up to third, sitting on the shoulder of Southampton and just 6 points behind ourselves. Given all that has happened at the club, Hughton has done a fabulous job. Whilst Allardyce had the luxury of buying Nolan for £4m, Hughton has had to cope with asset stripping of his squad, …

QPR Busy Talking Themselves Down!
Posted on 07 February 2012.
First Fernandes said he would remain chairman even if the club went down, and now Beard has come out and said the project will not be derailed by relegation. He does, of course, insist that the priority is staying up, but the R word was nevertheless used again. Why? Of course the Rs will be reassured by…

Ex West Ham & QPR Striker Calls For Terry To Be Dropped
Posted on 07 February 2012.
Former Hammer and Hoops striker Leroy Rosenior has joined the John Terry lynch mob, calling on Radio 5 Live for Terry to be dropped from the England squad for the sake of unity. Now I’m not sure if it is the Rangers connection which has inspired this, or if the debate is now dividing down race lines, but I consider Rosenior’s …

A new Faubert or a brilliant blip in a career of mediocrity?

He arrived labelled the TGV but was derailed by injury in no time and his career hit the buffers. Zola came up with the wizard wheeze of playing him as a right back and Grant couldn’t understand it was a joke and persisted with the folly. Then along came Sam with 4-3-3 …

Piquionne to Doncaster
Posted on 06 February 2012.
Really? After they took Ilunga? Will Doncaster really do us a favour by relieving us of the services of Piquionne too? He would fit in perfectly up there. The whole place is a dump so he can fly tip where ever he likes with immunity. By the way, talking of

Super Bowl Super Farce!
Posted on 06 February 2012.
I didn’t see it. I know nothing about the sport. I’ve tried watching it and hated it. But even I can understand the farcical nature of the winning score, with the conceding team allowing the opponent to touch down unchallenged and the scorer himself desperately trying NOT to score – and falling on his arse in the process! Freddie the…

QPR Players to Refuse to Play for Racist Supporting Fabio Capello
Posted on 06 February 2012.
Ho, ho, ho. The plot thickens. I posted my views on the stripping of the captaincy from John Terry and was greeted with the usual knee jerk cobblers from the gRs, calling me a racist for holding the opinion that Terry is innocent until proven guilty. Well now Capello has come out and said it too. …

QPR’s Fernandes Planning for Relegation
Posted on 05 February 2012.
Apparently QPR fans should be delighted that Tony Fernandes has twattered that he will stay on as Chairman if the club are relegated. Personally, I don’t see why that would be a cause for celebration. Let’s face it, what choice would he have? The value of his investment would plummet and there would only be two ways of…

Have West Ham bought another Portugese pup?
Posted on 05 February 2012.
To be fair, Vaz Te looked lively in his brief appearance as a substitute against Millwall, but it was worrying to hear the Barnsley manager say that “anybody could have had him in the summer and nobody wanted him”. Nevertheless, on the basis of half a season, the Bolton, Hull, Panionios and Hibernian reject has been …

Freddie Sears out in the cold
Posted on 05 February 2012.
Where now for Freddie Sears? The arrival of Vaz Te, Maynard and Morrison has reduced his chances of playing again this season to virtually zero. With Allardyce unable to even find a place for a keeper on the bench – even when Lansbury isn’t getting splinters in his arse – poor Freddie doesn’t even …

Tottenham, West Ham & QPR to set up free schools
Posted on 05 February 2012.
With the government encouraging football clubs to set up free schools – addressing disaffection by linking learning with football idols – a number of London clubs are planning to join the education revolution. Tottenham’s plans are most advanced with a curriculum already agreed in principle and key workers allocated to teaching roles. Manager ‘Arry …

Allardyce Defends Nolan
Posted on 05 February 2012.
So according to Doctor Evil, Captain Kev was unlucky to see red against Millwall – well he’s not going to admit that his pet player behaved like a complete cnut is he? According to Allardyce, the tackle was not “endangering the opposition player” and was not “out of control” or “with velocity”. Bollocks. As I saw it, I flinched …

Leicester Lose Even More Ground

Two players off and defeat to a late, late goal – the Leicester horror show under Pearson continues.

Much more of this and, in the words of the XTC song, the Board will soon be making plans for …

QPR Savaged By Wolves

Oops, that didn’t go according to the script did it? At half time on Wednesday, the Rs were reckoning on having 26 points tonight, with Premiership survival looking like a probability. Instead, the Hoops are languishing on 21 points, having thrown away a two goal lead against Villa and a goal advantage against Wolves. The next two games are now huge: …

West Ham 2 Millwall 1 – Nolan sent off, so starting line up unchanged
Posted on 04 February 2012.
To begin, the line up looked perverse. Why bring in Vaz Te, Maynard and Morrison and then start with a team that has no width and screams negativity? To be fair, Tomkins played superbly in the holding midfield role and Faubert had his best ever game for the club, but it was no surprise to see Millwall seize the initiative…

So what? It’s just another game. A game between two average teams playing average football. Perspective is needed.

The media is trying to suggest something different of course. …

QPR’s Ferdinand Screws Up England’s Euros Bid
Posted on 03 February 2012.
So whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? If I was John Terry, I would tell the Football Association where to stuff their England shirt. IF the guy is guilty, then fair enough, punish him, but we have this rather quaint notion that people are innocent until proven guilty in this country, irrespective of your …

Five Hammers Sacked – but Piquionne & Carew still on payroll!

Ask West Ham fans to nominate two players who should be sacked and most would nominate at least one of Freddie the Flytipper or John Carew, especially after the signing of Vaz Te and Maynard. But no, both remain at the club, drawing more pension in a week than ten nurses will draw in a year. Ilunga has gone…
