The draw for the Europa League will take place at midday on monday June the 22nd, West Ham are top seeds, but could face a journey nearly as lengthy as their ill fated tour of New Zealand and Australia last year. Much has been written about the amount of games that have to be played, in fact the team that wins may have ended up having to play TWENTY THREE games before they can lift the Cup.

When you next pay your BBC licence fee for the year, kindly consider, not the fact that one of the characters that you gladly paid your dues for was the hugely entertaining Jeremy Clarkson, now removed, but the fact that the BBC and the licence fee payer continually 'sponsor' the opinionated and deluded, 'senior' journalist, Dan Roan .
This is what happens when the truth is on offer!

It is neither Christmas, nor the Pantomime season, but that doesn't stop a good West Ham story does it? Dimitri Payet has been linked with a move to the club for the past couple of weeks, it had been reported that West Ham had lodged an ​improved offer for the Marseille midfielder, having had an initial £7.5 Million offer turned down, (where do people get these figures?).

Hammers kick off their final season at the Boleyn Ground with an away fixture against Arsenal and then TWO consecutive home matches against Leicester and newly promoted Bournemouth, the season ends with an away match against Stoke City. -Ed

Slaven Bilic has signed a three year deal to become West Ham United's 15th manager, replacing the unpopular but efficient Sam Allardyce. Bilic will have to get up to speed quickly, with player acquisitions and the impending Europa League matches foremost on his mind.

Following the news that West Ham United managerial target, Unai Emery, has signed a two year extension to remain Sevilla manager, Slaven Bilic appears to be the 'last man standing'. Quite how Bilic feels about having to wait as all the other high profile targets have rejected the post before being included in the frame himself is a matter of some conjecture, but suddenly, apparently, there are TWO other 'high' profile contenders on the agenda! But what does "high profile' mean? Do they do class 'A's at a lap dancing joint called the Agenda? Or are they the figment of a PR spin?

Here is a cross amalgam of betting odds for the next permanent West Ham United manager, interestingly David Moyes is still there in fourth despite claiming he is happy in Spain, which is of course where the two Davids currently are!!
Slaven Bilic 4/6 Unai Emery 8/1 Marcelo Bielsa 8/1 David Moyes 10/1 Eddie Howe 10/1 Steve McClaren 18/1 Roberto Di Matteo 20/1 Sean Dyche 20/1 Frank de Boer 20/1 Andre Villas Boas 25/1 Carlo Ancelotti 25/1 Paul Clement 25/1

Having had more come backs than Status Quo, www.westhamfans.org really is back. Leaner, meaner and on a new secure server with much greater speed and capacity, the site can now finally return to being the best West Ham forum in the world!
The Org will be developed over the coming weeks, just in time for the beginning of the Europa League competition.
Know an Orger? Let them know that their disfunctional rag tag family is back, you know it makes sense - Ed

As you are aware we have been having extremely slow site speeds and an abundance of issues with the site, but I am pleased to announce that will come to an end this weekend! This Sunday at 4pm GMT, we will be performing several software updates and moving our servers. The move to the new server is required in order to keep The Org secure and up-to-date. We may be momentarily unavailable around the time of switch over.

I will post updates here as needed.

Once again I would like to say thank you to the Orgers for your on going support of the site.

The season is going to start really early for the incoming manager of West Ham United, the club have just been declared top of the fair play league in England, and as such have obtained entry for a Europa League qualifying place along with Liverpool, Tottenham and either Aston Villa or Southampton. As fair play qualifiers Hammers will have to play their first match on July 2nd, in order to enter the competition 'proper' they will have to play a further three matches.
