Stoke a disgrace. Mike Jones awful. FA worse.
First of all, apologies for not writing as regularly as usual. I’ve been working on a new project which you can find at BoleynGround.com. It’s shaping up to be a historical photo archive of the Boleyn Ground and Upton Park, so if you’re sitting on any photos you’re particularly proud of, whatever era, please do [...]
Are Walcott and Diouf really of the same human race?
“Are Walcott and Diouf really of the same human race?” It’s a good question. No really it is. The question refers to the weekend that Walcott confessed to diving in Arsenal’s FA Cup tie against Leeds – the confession came with an apology and remorse. It is the same weekend that Diouf stood over Jamie [...]
Sullivan & Gold. Cowards.
All was going to plan in the Sullivan & Gold offices at Upton Park. Slowly but surely turning the screw, increasingly making Avram Grant’s position as manager untenable. Avram himself wasn’t helping with results, it must be added. “O’NEIL TO BECOME THE NEW MANAGER OF WEST HAM”, we hear immediately prior to Grant taking charge [...]
Allardyce sacked at Blackburn
Earlier today, William Hill slashed the odds of Allardyce getting being the next manager to leave their post. Not so long ago, he was sacked. Bookies have now slashed the odds of him becoming the next West Ham manager to 3-1. Please no. Please.
Meeting with Ian Tomkins, Olympic Stadium bid director
As some of you know, I was kindly invited by MyWHUFC.com to attend a meeting with Ian Tomkins, our Olympic Stadium bid director. MyWHUFC are running petitions against the move to the Olympic Stadium and you can find the guys with a large banner and clip boards by the John Lyall gates before and after [...]
Wally Downes’ a Hammer, he wears a West Ham hat!
On one hand I’m absolutely speechless. On the other, there is so much to talk about. Spector, Cole, Tomkins, Obinna, Upson, Green……where do you stop with talking about player performances? Kovac maybe – not at all, he put in a very good shift last night. But I want to start with one man. Wally Downes. [...]
Game tonight being covered by Picklive (and snow)
Just thought I’d give you another notice that tonight’s game is being covered by the brilliant Picklive. I’ve written about the ins and outs of Picklive before but it’s basically a live fantasy football game. I’d certainly recommend you play along whilst watching in the warmth of your own home! If you need a little [...]
More life in a tramp’s vest
I’m not going to waste my time writing about one of the most disgusting performances of the last decade. And I’m not going to waste your time asking you to read it. The players and the manager do not deserve our time. Instead, I’ll leave you to enjoy this song – written for Avram For [...]
SuGo start property developer search for Upton Park
Here we go then. According to this article, as spotted by someone on Twitter, West Ham have begun the search for a property developer to ruin Upton Park assuming we win the Olympic Stadium bid. Makes me feel sick. ——- Don’t forget you can play along live to the West Ham v Liverpool game tomorrow [...]
Play live fantasy football to Liverpool game tomorrow
I know I’ve mentioned these guys before, but as they’re covering the West Ham v Liverpool game tomorrow night I thought I’d let you all know. The game is called Picklive and it works like this: – You stick a quid in the pot then pick three players that are on the pitch (say Parker, [...]
