Rat in, Cole Out

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

West Ham announce Adidas Deal

Hammers must start New Year with resolve

…and not the kind that Messrs Nolan and Collins will be reaching for in the morning either, after their interesting yellow cards that ensured them a New Years Day break.  In fairness though, Super Kev does look like he needs a break and Ginge probably does not want to show his face round the manor … Read more
