Unfortunately the Org's recent success has made it a prime target for ad hackers, and a new account managed to infiltrate the site with word linked ads, most, if not all of them have been removed now. They are very obvious because they are highlighted, but they are a pain. We are working to resolve the issue, the name and account has been deleted and barred from ever having any affiliation or connection with the Org. The Org is now locked down to prevent any such incursion in the future -Ed

West Ham's centre half Doneil Henry has been ruled out for the rest of the season after sustaining a serious hamstring during Blackburn's 3-1 victory over Charlton Athletic on Saturday. The news was confirmed yesterday afternoon by Rovers boss Gary Bowyer."Unfortunately for Doneil Henry it is going to be the end of his season for him, he's with a specialist as we speak. We wish him all the very best." Henry, who moved to West Ham during the January transfer window has already returned to Chadwell Heath, where he is currently being assessed.

Hot on the heals of Gus Poyet's sacking by Sunderland, Sam Allardyce has emerged as test placed to takeover as manager. Our gaming partner www.bonuscorner.com have confirmed that the serious money is being placed on the incumbent Hammer's manager replacing Poyet. The timing and sequence of events could prove to be acceptable by most parties involved.

Now up and running on it's new server www.westhamfans.org attempted a new chat line facility which worked really well for the Arsenal match, however due to a technical issue that has now been rectified, the normal comment and posting option was rendered inoperative from 8pm on Saturday until 9am on Sunday morning.
All aspects of the Org are now back up and running, which is more than can be said for West Ham United's season, which is lurching from crisis to crisis! -Ed

You could hardly make it up could you? Hammers striker Enner Valencia is a huge doubt for this Saturday's Barclays Premier League fixture against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, apparently Valencia cut his toe very severely on a broken cup at his rented home! Hammers move to the Olympic stadium cannot come soon enough for those who still believe in the Gypsy curse that has blighted the Boleyn Ground.

Alex Song's Dubai absence has been explained on the official site, as the Cameroonian defensive midfielder requesting permission from managment to remain at Chadwell Heath and train for fitness purposes with the Development Squad while the First Team were away in Dubai.

Song was quoted as saying “Yes, I think it was really good for me to work on my fitness and stay here to work. I feel I needed to work because I didn’t have a proper pre-season."
