So let's start with a couple of quotes from the Cardiff message board before the game…. "Not worried about this West ham team 1 bit!" "There's no one in that West Ham team that particularly worries me. I think we can win this one" Ah, bless the optimism of the newly promoted club! Not to … Read more
I'm sure you are aware by now that Stewart Downing has joined us today. I believe it's a really good signing for us – I can see where he fits into the squad quite easily, and with our attacking options of Cole, Carroll, Nolan, Jarvis, the improving Morrision and now Downing, there will be a … Read more

West Ham have confirmed the signing of the wonderfully named Razvan Rat, the Shakthar Donetsk left back. It's certainly an area that needed strengthening and a great mvoe by the club to do it so early and give the lad time to settle in. Welcome to Upton Park Razvan! In sadder news, it appears Carlton … Read more

I think it's good news, putting us … Read more
Our development squad hosted a QPR team today including some senior players such as Hoillet and Onohua, but our lads came out on top, with Blair Turgott catching the eye with a very clinical hat trick in a 3-1 win. The third goal in particular is a lovely finish, let's hope we see more from … Read more
