That Was The Week, That Was

In all honesty, I am extremely pleased to see the back of the last week or so. Not one thing has happened on which everybody could agree and therefore the potential for upsetting people has been off the high end of the scale. We had snow in the UK, and lots of it. Now we […]

The lid is off the can. An iconic image of the past is being put on display again.

Mention of West Ham has the tendency to make me twitch. Not as badly as Harry Redknapp when he finds an Inland Revenue envelope on the doormat, so perhaps a little flinch would be a better description. Why? Well generally it’s true we have got the better of the Hammers on far more occasions than […]
