musingly in 'Arry's book he says that even with Hurst, Moore and Peters we still only finished mid-table, "showed how crap the rest of us were," he said! Best was the Cottee/McAvennie years and I look back fondly on the period when we had Hartson, Kitson and Lomas. That was under Harry's tenure. Indeed most entertaining period recently was as Harry as manager (DiCanio, Joe Cole, Trevor Sinclair etc.) I think we had 4 players go to the World Cup one year, yet he seems universally disliked by some element of the crowd.
Not me. For me Arry is a proper hammer.bad company said:
Looks like we are trying to buy this guy - http://www.teamtalk.com/west-ham-united/9386861/Tr...
Where is all the money coming from?
Received over £73M for the PL finish last season so presumably they've allocated a chunk to paying off debt/stadium & thought sod it; let's buy some players with the rest. Where is all the money coming from?
I've only heard about him in the last few days. For some reason Southampton were mentioned in connection with him. I can't understand why we would want to sell him to Southampton. Now I hear he's having a trial at ManU. It seems he want's away from the academy either way which is sad.
Likewise; hadn't heard of him till today - shows how much of the programme I read each week
Watched the clip on the DM website, couldn't see anything that impressive but as I don't watch football at that level hard to say what's decent & not. One of the other regulars (SJC I think) has the connections at WH youth level so will be better placed to comment.
Agree though that it's a shame to see any talent go elsewhere.

Apparently Carrol is injured again!
What a surprise. Was hoping for a good pre-season from him this year. If he's as unfit as suggested & has another POS season like last think patience will go. Hopefully Valencia will prove a good purchase as thought of going into another season w/ carlton up front's depressing me already (and I quite like CC).
