Curbs denies Bellamy exit - KUMB

West Ham United manager Alan Curbishley has denied reports that Craig
Bellamy is set to join Manchester City.
A clearly upset Curbishley told SkySports this morning: "It is nonsense. I
don't think anybody else will be going. Craig Bellamy is in full training
today.
"I want to concentrate on Macclesfield and put in a display so we can look
forward to Blackburn at the weekend."

Curbishley has already been caught cold twice by his employers this close
season; he told reporters hours before it was revealed that Freddie
Ljungberg was being released that the Swedish international was still part
of his plans, a situation that was repeated last week with Anton Ferdinand -
who is expected to sign for Sunderland within the next 24 hours.

There has been a swell of support for the manager amongst fans this morning
following this latest evidence that his players are being offered for sale
against his wishes, with many supporters slamming the board for undermining
Curbishley's position.
