Times are tough for West Ham fans. Our Premier League season is in tatters, and we sit on the brink of relegation – third from the bottom! With just 20 points, we are right in the thick of the battle, and the only saving grace is that there are five or six teams in a similar situation.

Leicester City, Wolves, Everton, Bournemouth, Leeds, and Southampton are all on similar points, and we aren’t out of the EPL yet! With all this doom and gloom, we need something positive!

The Premier League has evolved into a global phenomenon. Sure, it’s a British footballing competition. However, the money involved, the excitement of the games, and the celebrity status of the players mean that it attracts attention from the four corners of the world.

This holds for our beloved West Ham too! When you think of West Ham, you traditionally think of East London and our native fanbase. The club has a deep history in London, and this is usually where most of our fans hail from.

French outfit Stade de Reims' manager Will Still revealed that it is his dream to manage boyhood club West Ham United in the future, the highly sought after manager's team remains unbeaten in the league since he took over from Óscar García on 13th October. The Belgian-English manager oversaw a five-game unbeaten run at the club before being handed the role until the end of the season. Reims are now unbeaten in 16 games, which is a record dating back to 1959.
