In the great scheme of things which is worse, kicking a defenceless cat or physically abusing a woman? We have waited a while before posing this question in order to see how things panned out once the dust had settled on Zoumagate, both acts are heinous, of that there can be NO doubt, but the mightier than thou 'wisdom' dispensed from all corners became an absolute joke.

Hammers fans who have grown used to showing only a distance interest in BT TV's European competition coverage and questioning why they pay their subscription, finally have an evening of 'indulgent' UEFA Europa League Cup coverage to enjoy as they watch the teams that have dropped down from the Champions League battle to earn a place against the teams that finished 3rd in their group for the right to appear in the knock out stages, something West Ham have already achieved.

It is strange how one event can trigger another and so on at a football club, there are few places in the World of Sport stranger than the Premier League, so the shenanigans going on at West Ham during the last week or so will come as no surprise to some observers.

The now infamous Zoumagate affair shone a not too decent light on West Ham as a football club and an even worse light on Kurt Zouma who, quite rightly, has come in for a lot of flack, however the surging indignation eventually grew out of all proportion to a ludicrous level.
