Newcastle to West Ham by bike for Bobby Moore Fund
A few weeks ago there was the football tournament in aid of the Bobby Moore Fund (organised by the guys over at WestHamOnline.net ) Congratulations to the lads who raised a fantastic £1260 for the charity. A new fundraising effort from Jamie Penfold came to my attention today. Again he is raising money for the [...]
O’Neill Quits Villa
Martin O’Neill has quit Villa – just 5 days before we play them on the first day of the season (Aston Villa statement) Is this good or bad news for us? (there’s not much else I can say really – so long as it doesn’t mean that Milner will be next to leave, followed by [...]
Reid between the lines
Sky Sports have confirmed that we have agreed a deal for Winston Reid. Potentially a very good bit of business – he’s young, in a position that we need cover for (right-back/centre-back) and by all accounts a pretty promising player. It does raise the question however, how necessary are the constant publicity stunts from SuGo? [...]
West Ham Home Kit 10/11 – Leaked Pics
Massive credit of course has to go here to the guys in the KUMB.com forum for finding these photos As not everyone uses the forums over there, I figured I’d share here too….assuming they are real (they certainly look it), Macron have more than exceeded my expectations with these two kits.

Don’t trust anyone
So turns out you cannot trust anyone these days. The Jewish Chronicle who originally published the story about Ben Haim failing a medical has now retracted that report, saying that he did in fact “pass the tests at Upton Park. However, any possible deal remains incomplete as Ben Haim has yet to sign a contract [...]

Is Parker is just a potato to SuGo?
“He [Parker] is not for sale, but who would have thought Ronaldo would leave Manchester United?” (I think everyone did Mr Gold) “If Manchester City pay Aston Villa £50m for James Milner then Aston Villa have that £50m and are going to want to replace Milner.” Are we to read from those from David Gold quotes that [...]
It’s a joke, right?
“LeBron James to West Ham“, articles like this I wouldn’t even expect from the Daily Mirror. Reading that West Ham are a possible career move for basketball superstar, LeBron James had me in hysterics. Until, I realised that it was published by the club’s official site. Of course, this isn’t going to happen and it’s clearly [...]
