Happy 75th birthday to former West Ham United and England striker - Jimmy Greaves!

Well it's been a hell of a season hasn't it? On reflection a much better season than most of us would have even anticipated. We lie in the top half of the table and have some great performances to look back on (as well as a few shoddy ones too!).

There are some quality players in the team and others who have the potential to shine. Some, on the other hand, may well need to up their game or move on. Is there any extra planning needed for the run in? Have we got a squad deep enough to compete or will we be found out? Where do we go from here??

Lots of rumours doing the rounds and denials by "a spokesperson" from West Ham that Big Sam was fired today after a meeting with Co-chairman David Gold over several disagreements on selection of players tactics and recent results!!!
David Gold remains tight lipped and it seems Big Sam is still there but we all know it's Nolan and dare I say it an unfit Noble and the poor performance on Saturday that is causing the rift!!! Most is from the KUMB website but redtops are running with it as well now. A season that started so well is beginning to fade and it seems the board want answers!!! thoughts!

It's been posted by the site owner, so whilst unconfirmed, it's not from somebody who would post nonsense.

Kouyate might have broken his arm in training today he could be out for 7 weeks if true.

Damn it, damn it, damn it!!

I'm not a fan of Valencia and think he is too lightweight as a forward in the UK. The Bristol City game was evidence enough to see how easy he was knocked off the ball and doesn't cope with physical side of the game. Add to that the lack of goals, and lack of movement off the ball in recent games, leads me to believe that if Chelski did really want to sign him then I would be very happy for us to get the £15-20m as quoted. Your views to a £12-15m signing with no proven statistics in a league comparable to the Premier League? And BFS went public to admit he wanted Carroll over Bony so why are we so bad at signing decent forwards? It's been annoying me for weeks, the thought of the absolute rubbish that BFS has bought in terms of attacking players and for paying over the odds. Do you agree? Sakho was a board signing and not BFS, so does this prove his lack of attacking ability as a manager?

As you have all been so kind in your messages of good will to my daughter I thought I should update you on a few things. Tilly had an accident in December 2014 and managed to break her leg, she blames me to anyone who asks even though I was downstairs getting her wheelchair ready, so was in cast for 8-10 weeks. The level of care we had got used to for so many years went up a few notches and it proved difficult. Just over 2 weeks ago, during a routine day at Great Ormond Street Hospital, the Mrs mentioned the fact that Tilly's leg and foot was still severely swollen so they did a scan. The scan revealed a blood cot so Tilly was admitted and remained there for 12 days, then her blood was thinned too much so warferin was given to thicken the blood. The long and short is that Tilly returned home last week but, will have to have weekly blood tests and daily doses of the drug for life, along with the 10 other daily medications. Tilly is home and we are blessed so let's see what tomorrow brings....:) COYI and thanks to everyone on here as it is a great release and bonded by great people, so big thanks to Nev as I have missed the org
