Big weekend for loan stars
WHUFC.com
With eight players out on loan, James Tomkins could be among those in action
this Saturday afternoon
28.11.2008

West Ham United may not be playing until Monday with the small matter of
Liverpool away, but the eight players out on loan should provide plenty of
Saturday interest.

Three of them will be on Championship duty, while the five other loanees
will be involved in League One or FA Cup encounters. whufc.com rounds up who
will be in action and where this weekend.

James Tomkins (Derby County)
The England Under-19 international travelled to Derby on Thursday to join up
with Paul Jewell's side, who are 14th in the 24-team Championship and just
four points off a play-off place. Derby go to Burnley, who themselves are in
fifth place, with Tomkins looking to build on Tuesday's reserve run-out
after a spell out injured and his six first team appearances last season.

Kyel Reid (Blackpool)
The pacy left winger celebrated his 21st birthday this week with an assist
and a goal for the reserves and will now look to build on that with
Blackpool after his Thursday move - his third loan spell away from the
Boleyn Ground. The north-west club, sitting in 18th in the Championship,
have a long trip to the south-west to take on seventh-placed Plymouth
Argyle.

Nigel Quashie (Birmingham City)
Midland derbies are usually tasty affairs but the lunchtime showdown between
Wolverhampton Wanderers and Birmingham City promises to be extra special as
the two teams currently occupy first and second places in the table. The
30-year-old is into his second month on loan at St Andrews and has proved
popular. A knock to his achilles in midweek could yet keep him out of the
trip to Molineux though.

Jimmy Walker (Colchester United)
The 35-year-old goalkeeper got Thursday's loan activity under way with his
five-week switch to Colchester United. Walker could make his debut in the
League One fixture at Northampton Town on Saturday, with the Essex club
sitting just outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

Junior Stanislas (Southend United)
The last of Thursday's loans to be confirmed, the attacking midfielder, who
turned 19 this week, has made the short trip to the Essex club for a
six-week stay. Southend are tenth in League One but will get a break from
that competition when they welcome Luton Town in the FA Cup second round.
Stanislas has been given special dispensation to play.

Jordan Spence (Leyton Orient)
The England Under-19 defender, still only 18, could make his FA Cup debut
for Leyton Orient in the second round trip to Bradford City after his
month-long loan move at the start of the week. Spence has already played at
the Matchroom Stadium this season, when representing the reserves against
Tottenham Hotspur earlier this month. Orient are 17th in their division, two
points above the drop zone.

Josh Payne (Cheltenham Town)
Having just turned 18, midfielder Payne has been out on loan at League One
strugglers Cheltenham since September. He began his stay with a goalscoring
debut and has already made nine appearances including one in the FA Cup. It
is that competition that concerns Cheltenham this weekend with Martin
Allen's men contemplating the second-round visit of Morecambe Town.

Bondz N'Gala (MK Dons)
After two impressive appearances off the bench in consecutive 3-0 victories
for the League One high-fliers, managed by Roberto Di Matteo, the imposing
19-year-old defender gets a weekend off. MK Dons may be going well in the
league but they were eliminated in the FA Cup first round and consequently
do not have a senior fixture this time around.

Fanimo earns England call
WHUFC.com
Matthias Fanimo is in line for an England Under-16 cap in the Victory Shield
against Scotland on Friday.
28.11.2008

West Ham United will again be represented when England Under-16s look to
clinch the Victory Shield at home to Scotland on Friday night.

After young striker Robert Hall appeared in the first two matches of the
round-robin competition - 6-0 and 1-0 wins away against Northern Ireland and
Wales respectively - his club-mate Matthias Fanimo has been selected for the
first time. The 14-year-old left sided attacker was a late call-up to
replace Manchester United midfielder Ra'vel Morrison. England need only
avoid defeat to claim the trophy.

The match, which will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, gets under way at the
Sincil Bank home of Lincoln City at 7.40pm. England have won the last seven
editions of the Victory Shield and Fanimo follows in the footsteps of a long
line of homegrown Hammers to appear in the competition including Trevor
Brooking, Joe Cole and Jordan Spence.

Mayor lends his support
WHUFC.com
The Mayor of London spent some time with trainee coaches from West Ham
United at a recent show
26.11.2008

A group of trainee coaches representing West Ham United at a prestigious
careers event were rewarded with a visit from Mayor of London Boris Johnson.

The coaches from the West Ham United Community Sports Trust spent three days
at Skills London, delivering high quality football sessions to more than
44,000 other young people. Throughout the event they encouraged prospective
candidates to apply for places on the Trainee and Mentoring and Voluntary
Work Experience schemes by giving talks about their experiences of working
for West Ham United and by the end of the event, more than 1,000
applications had been received.

Chief among their admirers was the Mayor, who was led through a series of
exercises by trainee coach Jackie Alecho. Mick King, Chief Executive of the
West Ham United Community Sports Trust, discussed the aims and objectives of
the project with the Mayor, who was impressed by the trainees' level of
professionalism.

Afterwards the Mayor said: " I really enjoyed meeting young Londoners and
the WHU Community Sports Trust coaches and I even had the chance to have a
go at some ball skills myself! So many of our young people work hard and
achieve great things. I'm keen to support their ambitions and help them
boost their skills so they can achieve success in their chosen careers."

After the event, the Community Sports Trust CEO was delighted with the
coaches' performance. "The trainees demonstrated as a team their growing
confidence and levels of capability throughout the exhibition," he said.
"Their presence embodied the ethos of Skills London, which is about enabling
London's youth to discover the options open to them, and forge a responsible
plan for their future.

"In doing so they not only created a positive image of young people in
general, but represented West Ham United to their peers and the wider
community."

McCabe rues 'Tevez affair'
Blades cash losses blamed on the Carlos Tevez affair
Last updated: 28th November 2008
SSN

Sheffield United chairman Kevin McCabe says the club's financial losses are
down to the Carlos Tevez affair. The Blades have announced an operating
loss before tax and interest of £3.5million compared to a £2.7million profit
this time last year. Tevez was the man who effectively relegated Sheffield
United from the Premier League when his goal beat Manchester United on the
last day of the 2006/07 season to keep West Ham up at the expense of The
Blades. But irregularities had already been found in his contract rendering
him ineligible to play - and The Blades have been campaigning for
compensation ever since. McCabe said: "One can only ponder as to the
potential turnover and profitability that may have been achieved were it not
for the circumstances and events emanating from the media-named 'Tevez
affair'.
"Sheffield United are now a robust, strong and proud club, who will simply
not back down or walk away from tackling head on those organisations
responsible for the shameful actions and events that have tarnished English
football."
McCabe added: "Turnover in 2008 was £32.1million, a reduction from the
£44.2million of 2007, arising from our unjust relegation from the Premier
League in May last year and thankfully limited due to the success of our
off-the-field interests." The Blades are hoping to recoup some of that
deficit with compensation figures of up to £50million being bandied about
after an arbitration panel ruled that the Argentinian should not have been
allowed to play. West Ham say they have already been punished by the
£5.5million Premier League fine, and have this week launched an appeal
against an injunction that blocks them from appealing to the Court of
Arbitration for Sport. Both sides will meet the arbitration panel in March
to thrash out a compensation deal, but the longer it drags on, the more
likely it will be that the case is settled out of court.

Masch has no love for Hammers
Midfielder feels nothing for former club
Last updated: 28th November 2008
SSN

Javier Mascherano insists he has no feelings about former club West Ham as
Liverpool prepare to face The Hammers. Mascherano joined West Ham along with
countryman Carlos Tevez - who went on to play a major role in keeping The
Hammers in the Premier League in 2007. Tevez's controversial participation
in West Ham's season is now leading to court battles - but Mascherano's
Upton Park career passed off without anywhere near as much controversy.
Indeed the combative midfielder managed just seven games for The Hammers
before joining Liverpool in January 2007 - and the player admits he has
little feeling for West Ham given how little he played for them. "West Ham
brought me to England. That was very good for me, but I still could not play
there, it was not like at River Plate or Corinthians when I could play and
win titles," he said. "I only played a few games, so I do not have a big
feeling for the club. "But I was very pleased that they brought me to
England, and happy with the welcome I got there. They did give me the chance
to play in England, that is clear. "But I do not feel a big passion for the
club because I couldn't play there. I was there for four months, I did not
have a feeling with the people. "I don't feel anything about them. My club
is Liverpool, and I do the best for the people here, my team-mates and
supporters. "I do not think about anything now at West Ham. West Ham is
nothing in my life now because I was not able to play there. "It is just
another team in the Premier League. I do not feel anything else. "The
important thing now for me is to win with Liverpool and to keep going. We
want to be top of the table and we must just keep going."

RAFA: BELLAMY WILL BE DANGEROUS
Joe Curran 28 November 2008
Liverpoolfc.tv

Rafa Benitez today warned of the threat former Reds striker Craig Bellamy
will pose when West Ham visit Anfield on Monday. The Welsh captain scored
nine goals during a one-year spell with the Reds before moving to Upton Park
in July 2007, and Benitez admitted the Hammers, who climbed to 13th in the
league after a 1-0 away win over Sunderland last week, could be dangerous
with Bellamy spearheading their attack. "It will be difficult for them to
take something away from Anfield, but it will be hard for us too because it
is the Premier League and it's always tough," said Benitez. "We have
experience of teams coming here very well prepared and defending, and I
think it will be the same situation with West Ham - they will be organised
and have some good players with Bellamy up front, so they will be a threat.
"Bellamy is a good player and was a very good professional when he was with
us - he worked very hard. "We had a lot of confidence in him, he was a good
player for us and he is a winner, but some players prefer to play every week
and it's something you need to understand."
The Reds boss also revealed he was grateful to get a few more days before
the West Ham clash and said: "Clearly it makes a massive difference when we
have extra time to prepare for a game. Just one day can be important, but
two or three extra days is even better. "Maybe I will watch some of the
other games on Sunday, but I am more concerned about my own team. The main
thing for us is to improve and try to get the three points - you cannot do
anything about the other teams' results.
"Sometimes it can be more pressure watching what the other teams do, so it's
better to relax, enjoy the weekend and try to win when our game comes."

Sheffield United chairman points finger at Tevez after lossesBy Sportsmail

Daily Mail

Sheffield United chairman Kevin McCabe has blamed the club's financial
losses for the year ending June 30 on the 'Tevez affair'. The Blades have
announced an operating loss before interest and tax of £3.5million, while
for the same period last year the club made a profit of £2.7million.
Retained losses stand at £6.3million compared to a £300,000 profit at this
time in 2007. Turnover is down from £44.2million to £32.1million. McCabe
said: 'One can only ponder as to the potential turnover and profitability
that may have been achieved were it not for the circumstances and events
emanating from the media-named 'Tevez affair'. 'Sheffield United are now a
robust, strong and proud club, who will simply not back down or walk away
from tackling head on those organisations responsible for the shameful

'Turnover in 2008 was £32.1 million, a reduction from the £44.2 million of
2007, arising from our unjust relegation from the Premier League in May last
year and thankfully limited due to the success of our off-the-field
interests.' The Blades are hoping to claim up to £50million from West Ham in
compensation next spring after an arbitration panel ruled that Carlos Tevez
should not have been permitted to play in the final matches of the 2006/7
season, when the Argentina striker helped West Ham avoid relegation at
Sheffield United's expense. West Ham have argued they have already been
punished by the Premier League - they were fined £5.5million - but the
arbitration panel decided the Hammers had not abided by their pledge to end
all third-party agreements in relation to Tevez.
The matter will return to the High Court for a full trial next year when the
Blades will be seeking a permanent injunction. Both parties will meet the
arbitration panel in March to thrash out a compensation figure, but it has
been reported that should the case drag on, the matter could be settled out
of court.

Hypocrisy Personified Mc Babe And His Cronies
Submitted by Neville Nixon on 28 November, 2008 - 10:42.
West Ham Fans Org.

So the seekers of truth and justice Sheffield United have managed to get
some old soak to grant them an injunction to stop West Ham appealing to the
Court of Arbitration in Geneva. On the back of the original unjust decision
to penalise Hammers, despite the fact that a hefty fine had already been
paid for irregularities in the transfer of Carlos Tevez and Javier
Mascherano, the granting of an injunction is hardly surprising, however the
sheer hypocrisy of Sheffield United's ruling party beggars belief. Having
been guilty of having a third party agreement over the sale of one of their
players themselves, the Blades are now trying to turn a blind eye to the
thuggish and potentially career threatening assault administered by one of
their players as if it didn't happen, what world do they live in? ...And now
the monkeys want to do a deal! - Ed (Here follows a direct cut and paste
from the Guardian)... Sheffield United had originally put in a claim for
£30m to recompense them for being relegated. This was then increased by £20m
which included the cost of a second season out of top level football. The
Mail reports that directors at the Sheffield club are willing to save West
Ham from any further financial problems by settling for half of the £50m
they were initially seeking. With West Ham planning an appeal to the High
Court after Sheffield United won an injunction preventing the Premier League
side from appealing through the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the
affair risks running well into the new year. Amid suggestions that West Ham
are already suffering in the current financial climate, the risk of taking
the case to the CAS would cost time and money, something club owner
Bjogolfur Gudmundsson cannot afford. Speculation that he may be forced to
sell the club or go bankrupt if the FA award damages to Sheffield United are
rife. In a bid to bring the matter to a close, Sheffield United's chairman,
Kevin McCabe has said the club will accept staggered payments on the
condition that West Ham admit that they owed something for United's
relegation at the end of 2006-07. McCabe and Sheffield United are in the
position of strength as it has already been firmly established that Tevez
should not have been playing for West Ham in the matches that proved vital
in keeping the club up while United went down.

Sheffield United have a double standard for West Ham and Iain Hume
By Ian Winwood 28/11/2008
The Mirror

Sheffield United were unusually blasé this week following the FA's decision
not to take any further action regarding defender Chris Morgan's elbow smash
to the head of Barnsley striker Iain Hume earlier this month. Speaking on
BBC Radio Sheffield, Blades assistant manager Sam Ellis said his club now
consider the matter "closed."
Actually, make that almost closed, because Ellis couldn't resist one final
parting shot. "We didn't think there was anything more [to the incident],"
he continued. "We think people have made a little bit more out of it than
they should have."
Oh really, do you? It's a fact of football journalism that interviewers
don't ask those being interviewed to expand on their answers, so we don't
know who Ellis thinks these "people" actually are. But let's try and have a
guess. Could Mr Ellis be talking about Iain Hume himself? Leaving aside the
question of intent, the facts of the incident are as follows: Chris Morgan
planted his feet on the ground and swung his elbow into the Barnsley
player's head with enough force to fracture his opponent's skull, leaving a
scar the size of a breakfast bagel.
It's probably safe to assume that Iain Hume did not undergo this
life-threatening misfortune so he could get himself on the telly. Is it,
then, the FA who have made more of this matter than they should? No it's
not, because the FA have done nothing at all. Chris Morgan was awarded a
yellow card for his foul (rather than a three month prison sentence) and
that's how it's going to stay.
The Football Association would consider further punishment were the
'circumstances' more 'exceptional', but everyone knows that in the
Championship fractured skulls are as common as throw-ins. So it must be that
Sheffield United are referring to Barnsley Football Club as the people who
have made too much of the unpleasantness at Oakwell. It is, after all,
Barnsley who are threatening to bring a civil action against Morgan and his
club. United obviously think this is all wrong, and that the FA's ruling
should be a final end to the matter.
This, by the way, is the same Sheffield United who refused the official
ruling on the West Ham saga, and are using their own lawyers to try and grab
£30 million. The double standard at work here is both hilarious and pitiful.
If Sheffield United can have their day in court, then why can't Barnsley? If
an official ruling is the end of the matter in one thing, then why not in
everything? Why not? Because Sheffield United's talk of fairness only
applies when it's fair to them, that's why. Anything else gets the elbow.
