He looks tired and fed up in his interviews. Anyone else think he's fed up with the board perhaps regarding transfers? Downing, song and nolan gone. Make what you will of their abilities but fact is they were two first teamers last season. I'd say we need 3 or 4 players in and quality ones. Not the bartons and loanees but some class. Other teams are getting them, leicester, stoke, villa, swansea, newcastle and palace to name a few. We're in danger of being left with what we have and for a new manager trying to put some new ideas across imo this will be concerning. Thoughts?
So King Kev-Chicken Kiev-Nobby Nolan Departs, An Analysis
Lots of media coverage about Kevin Nolan's departure from West Ham United, here is a player who was given a ridiculously long five year contract on his transfer from Newcastle United, courtesy of Sam Allardyce, sanctioned by the Hammers hierarchy. If 'Nobby' had had a cockney accent and not been directly associated with Sam Allardyce, then it is quite safe to assume he would have gone down as one of West Ham United's best captains, his presence and stabilising powers were omnipresent during his initial tenure as captain. In fact for the first two and a half years he was absolutely phenomenal, both on and off the pitch, sadly his energetic approach began to be exposed as he lost that all important 'yard'. Once that 'beasty' was exposed King Kev went on to become chicken kiev and a side of coleslaw, he became a snarling angry man who realised the top flight game was up. So now that is out of the way, possibly it is time to remember the good times and wish Kev well in the future. He managed to jump the match of the day cameras, without injuring himself, during a goal celebration which they used for a complete season, something Andy Carroll could not have done without sustaining at least a three month lay off as he crashed ' unfortunately and accidentally in to the camera man. As mentioned before, Nobby was always going to be tarred with the same brush as Big Sam, but he put in a shift, apart from the odd xmas red card that is. If Nolan had only been offered a four year contract, instead of a five, he probably would not have left the Toon, it is a bit of a pity, because if last season had been his last at the Boleyn , then he would undoubtedly have received the praise and lauding that he deserved as a player, a professional and as far as we have gathered a thoroughly decent person. This site, among many others, was not slow to criticise Kevin Nolan, but he was one of the few players aspiring youngsters should respect, and one of the very few they should aspire to, and he possibly the only one of the very, very few most players would envy.
Good on you Nobby! - Ed

Some posts appearing on Facebook that Kevin Nolan has left the club after being paid off. Not sure if this is true or not.
Nolan been paid off

Has anyone else seen that , that he has left the club?
Well then, Nolans been Paid Off!
Forums:
Looks like Kevin Nolans been paid off. Got to be honest poor player and for half a season did his job on the field aswell as off the field. One of our better captains but poorest players, hope he does well at his new club, who ever that may be. Am getting worried about our squad depth though.
So Zsa Zsa Gabor isn't coming and we have sung a different song.........again!

Apparently the deal is dead for the Juve striker and Song may not be coming after all? So apart from signing Payet, where are all the top players we were promised? We lost Downing who gave us width, which was totally lacking in the last two games and Song now may not re-sign after all. The centre half was subbed after only 35 minutes against Bournemouth, and we paid £8.5m for him! We still have Nolan, Jarvis and Maiga making regular appearances so, are we being duped yet again into thinking it's getting better and we will be a bigger club? or are we still just punting rumours to sell seats in the new stadium? It's worth debating me thinks......
KUMB reports Kevin Nolan has left the club!
Forums:
all over facebook and twitter that despite training with the club today that Kevin Nolan has left West Ham yet no mention of a destination, if true I wish him well, he led us back to the big time and secured our first win when back, good luck Kevin.
Lousy week

Must be the worst spell for a long time for the club. Valencia slagging the club in an interview, Sakho arrested. Total chaos surrounding transfers with constant reports of turned down bids or players not wanting to come, finally found Maiga a club and can't let him go as he the only fit forward. Kieran Bywater's dad written quite a damming attack. Terrible home defeat and another red card
We really need some leadership right now, Gold and Sullivan need to ensure available funds to secure two or three signings, the market has gone mad but that is because of the TV deal and we need to keep pace. We need some real clarity on what is happening, a major crackdown on our discipline and a performance from the team.
Would be a fantastic time to get a result at Liverpool and end the ridiculous record we have had up there. Time for the board and manager to show real leadership because this shit needs to stop right now.
