News that struggling Premier League newcomers Nottingham Forest are keen to offload Jesse Lingard and cancel his contract in January has been greeted with joy and FEAR by the Hammers faithful, joy that his time at the City ground has been such a disaster as it was rightly or wrongly viewed that he only went there for the money and absolute FEAR or terror that Moyes might finally get his man in what might be one of his final acts as a manager of WesT Ham United!

It is just as well that Tottingham supporting Mayor 'Sadist' Khan ensured the Overground wasn't functioning for the West Ham v Palace game otherwise there may have been some unpleasant scenes as many supporters of both clubs would have had to share the same carriages home on what would have been a journey of paradoxcical highs and lows.
