Due to the depressing combination of living up north and having little disposable income, I seldom get to watch West Ham in the flesh. So it was even more depressing that my first trip to the London Stadium this season was to watch the hammering by Liverpool between Christmas and New Year, when the home team looked almost as bloated and hungover as I felt.

When Fosun international purchased Wolves in 2016, there was only one man they wanted for the job. Kenny Jackett had done a brilliant job steering the club back to the Championship after a ridiculous relegation to League One, but things had gone stale and the double promotion hadn’t happened. In truth, he was never going to get the chance to try again, as the new owners wanted their own man in.

Back to Pic of the Day List Blowing bubbles Steve Leonard, taken from Markham, Ontario, CanadaThe Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635) is an emission nebula surrounding the star SAO 20575 in Cassiopeia; the faint shell is created by its intense winds. The imager used a 4.5-inch f/5.7 refractor to take 24 hours of SHO data and 3 hours of RGB data.

Many players have joined and left West Ham over the years. Players such as Christian Dailly, Nigel Quashie, and Scott Minto did not perform well for the team. However, some players became legends at West Ham. They made a big impact, like scoring a late goal to win a promotion or making a crucial tackle to keep a lead. This list has ten players who helped make West Ham great. We will look at the top eight Hammers in history. Bobby Moore stands out as the greatest West Ham player ever.

West Ham’s European campaign officially came to an end after an impressive, yet emotional game against Leverkusen. As my first game back at the stadium, I was surprisingly nervous to return for such a huge fixture, but I still had the belief that an early goal could change things. And that it did. Our opening goal saw the stadium erupt as we put in the most impressive performance I’ve ever seen, particularly against such a difficult side.

It’s been a manic start to 2024 after having a baby just before Christmas, but I thought I’d take a break from changing nappies to write about my beloved West Ham. Keeping up with the absolute madness of West Ham is hard enough with all of the crazy news stories we have, but with a baby, the lack of sleep and continuing to run my own copywriting business, it’s stepped up a whole level.

The Hammers hit the headlines with news the club was hiking ticket prices by between 6% and 14%, ignoring the rapidly falling rate of inflation, of just 3.4%. But the detail flagged by the West Ham Supporters Trust (WHUST) was that no new concession-priced tickets will be sold in the best seats. Only band five and six – up in the gods – will be available for concession rates to new applicants.

David Meagher: We have steadied the ship after the awful Arsenal game but we have let too many points slip in games we could have won to expect a top six finish and our run-in is tricky. Paqueta’s return has been key as he maintains our attack-defence balance and his passing precision keeps opposition defences on guard, and a little deeper. A Europa League final in which we avenge the 2006 Cup final by beating Liverpool in Dublin has always been the dream, so beating Frieberg was the key result.

After some huge wins against Arsenal and Bristol City and a brilliant home draw against Manchester United, we are six points clear of the drop and a far better goal difference to the bottom placed side. Since our new signings have joined, they have helped transform our team, they are a huge reason why we had another good month in March. But we have now lost Kristie Mewis and Katrina Gorry who are crucial in our midfield.

I’m writing this after we capitulated against Newcastle. The fact that we shipped four goals and VAR shafted us, along with some typical Moyes’ in-game management, has taken the focus away from the three good goals we scored, one of which was Bowen’s 19th of the season. For West Ham, across all competitions, Bowen has scored 19 goals, and has eight assists – not bad at all. Particularly as he did not have the best start to the season, and his indifferent form saw him lose his England squad place.
