Alex Dyer was happy with the reserve team's goalless draw at league leaders
Aston Villa on Tuesday
14.01.2009
Alex Dyer was delighted with his reserve-team's resilient showing after a
tight defensive display helped earn a 0-0 draw at league leaders Aston
Villa.
The 18-year-old goalkeeper Marek Stech was one of the main reasons the
Hammers left the Midlands with a point, although the five defenders in front
of him also contributed in a big way. The Czech Under-21 stopper made a
string of superb saves to deny the home side, who had offered plenty of
invention going forward at Hinckley United's Marston's Stadium.
Time and again, Villa found their attacks halted by the brilliance of Stech
and defenders James Tomkins, Bondz N'Gala, Jordan Spence, Walter Lopez and
Jonathan Spector - who played as part of a five-man back line in the first
half. Despite having to reshuffle after the break when Lopez was forced to
leave the field with a slight groin stain, United stood firm.
The performance of his defenders was just one of many plusses for Dyer, who
saw his namesake Kieron play another 70 minutes to continue his steady
progress in recovering from injury while Diego Tristan also got another 90
minutes under his belt.
"It was a great point for West Ham," the reserve-team manager said. "The
boys worked hard again and there were lots of positives. Kieron getting
another 60 or 70 minutes, Diego Tristan getting 90 minutes and Jonathan
Spector coming back and playing really well again. Obviously Marek in goal
was excellent tonight so overall I thought we did well."
Dyer's side have a proud 100 per cent record at home this season, but
Tuesday night's point was their first on the road so far. No doubt they will
be trying to close the gap on Villa at the top next Tuesday, when they play
host to Fulham at Bishop's Stortford.

Zola in tapping-up storm?
KUMB.com
Filed: Wednesday, 14th January 2009
By: Staff Writer
The Hammers could face charges of 'tapping up' Manchester City striker
Valeri Bojinov after the player claimed he had spoken with Gianfranco Zola
about a possible move to East London. The 22-year-old Bulgarian
international signed for City in August 2007 but has seen his career in
Manchester wrecked by injury. A long-running achilles injury has restricted
Bojinov to just three appearances for the club since signing in a
£5.75million switch from Juventus. But now, according to the player,
Gianfranco Zola has been in touch with regard to taking him to West Ham -
something, that if true, would appear to flout Premier League rules with
regards to appraoching players from member clubs. "Two days ago, Zola called
me on my mobile and told me that he wants me at West Ham," Bojinov is
reported to have told the Bulgarian press, according to the Manchester
Evening News. "I answered that I feel great in Manchester and don't want to
leave the team. I'm happy the City management values me. The only thing I
want is to be healthy again, so that I can prove myself. "Mark Hughes told
me that Zola wants me but City made it perfectly clear that they don't want
to sell me."
Bojinov has been mentioned in dispatches as a possible makeweight in a
potential deal to take Craig Bellamy to City, where he would reunite with
former Blackburn boss and fellow Welshman Mark Hughes. However City appear
to be determined to hold on to a player that, despite his horrendous injury
problems, they believe can still make an impact in the Premier League.

Roeder fired - again
KUMB.com
Filed: Wednesday, 14th January 2009
By: Staff Writer
Former Hammers boss Glenn Roeder has been sacked by Norwich City after a run
of poor results.
Roeder, who managed West Ham between 2001 and 2003 received his marching
order this morning following Norwich's FA Cup exit at the hands of Charlton,
who had gone 18 games without a win prior to last night.
Despite being the only English manager to take two different teams to top
seven finishes in the Premier League Norwich become the fourth club to fire
Roeder, who had previously enjoyed spells with Gillingham, Watford, West Ham
and Newcastle.
His spell at West Ham, which began promisingly with a seventh place finish -
the club's fifth best ever in the top flight - ended when he was sacked
three games into the 2003/04 season, just weeks after he collapsed during
West Ham's 1-0 win over Middlesbrough in April 2003.
His career has been dogged by bad luck, having taken over his last four
clubs just as they began to experience severe financial problems. His
critics, whilst on the whole agreeing that he has solid coaching credentials
argue that he was never cut out for management. Indeed, given today's news
it is difficult to see a way back for the former Newcastle defender.
Glenn Roeder - managerial record
Gillingham (1992-93)
Having saved the Gills from relegation to non-league football by virtue of
winning their final game of the 1991/92 season he was poached by Division
One (now The Championship) club Watford.
Watford (1993-96)
Roeder built a good side during his time at Vicarage Road and narrowly
missed out on the play-offs in his second season in charge. However huge
financial problems led to the Hornets selling some of their best players and
Roeder was sacked the following season with the club in danger of being
relegated.
West Ham United (2001-03)
Roeder, backed financially by the Hammers board achieved a seventh place
finish in his first season at West Ham. But having been granted a transfer
budget of precisely nothing the following season his side went six months
without a home win and despite much improved form in the second half of the
season were relegated on a record 42 points. Roeder was fired three games
inot the 2003/04 season.
Newcastle United (2006-07)
Roeder, having initially been appointed as a coach replaced the sacked
Graeme Souness and rescued the Magpies' season, taking them from the lower
reaches of the Premiership table to a respectable seventh place finish. They
qualified for Europe the following summer via the Intertoto Cup -
Newcastle's only trophy since 1969 - but Roeder was fired in the 06/06
season following a disappointing run of results brought on by an injury
crisis (and despite achieving a win rate of 45%, a figure bettered by just
Bobby Robson at St James Park in the last 20 years).
Norwich City (2007-09)
Roeder was appointed as successor to former Hammers assistant managwer Peter
Grant two months into the 07/08 season with the Canaries four points adrift
at the bottom of the Championship. A 13-match unbeaten run saw them to the
verge of the play-offs but City's form dropped and they ended the season
just outside of the relegation zone. Having been forced to release a virtual
entire first team Norwich struggled this season, and defeat at home to
basement boys Charlton last night led to Roeder receiving his marching
orders for the fourth time in his career.

City say no to Bojinov swap
Striker will not be involved in swap deal for Bellamy or Parker
By Elliot Ball Last updated: 14th January 2009
SSN
Manchester City will not allow Valeri Bojinov to leave for West Ham as a
makeweight in any deal for Craig Bellamy or Scott Parker. Sky Sports News
chief news reporter Bryan Swanson revealed City's second bid of £9million
for Bellamy was turned down on Sunday. In the latest twist in the ongoing
dialogue between the two clubs, it has emerged that Upton Park boss
Gianfranco Zola has been in touch personally with Bulgaria international
Bojinov. But the injured striker says boss Mark Hughes has reassured him
that he will not be leaving Eastlands in January. "Two days ago, Zola called
me on my mobile and told me that he wants me in West Ham," Bojinov told
Bulgarian media. "I answered that I feel great in Manchester City and don't
want to leave the team. I'm happy the City management values me. The only
thing I want is to be healthy again, so that I can prove myself. "Mark
Hughes told me that Zola wants me but City made it perfectly clear that they
don't want to sell me."
Bojinov, who has been out of the side since he ruptured his Achilles in the
warm-up for the opening game of the season at Villa Park, is expected to be
back in training with the first-team squad in the next month.

Fulham star looking forward to West Ham clash
3:20pm Wednesday 14th January 2009
Echo
By Simon Fitzjohn »
Fulham defender John Pantsil insists it will be business as usual when the
Cottagers visit Upton Park on Sunday, despite him being a former West Ham
fan favourite. Pantsil has produced a series of all-action displays since
his summer switch across London, part of an impressive backline that has
driven Fulham's promising opening to the Premier League campaign. And the
Ghana international has vowed that that will continue. Pantsil said: "For me
playing West Ham is normal - it is still just football. "Obviously I played
for West Ham but that makes no difference to me. "I play for Fulham - that
is who I represent. "I will be very happy to see the West Ham fans as I love
them so much. "They were really behind me when I was there and they gave me
a lot of support. "But when the game starts I will be trying my hardest to
get the points for Fulham."
Roy Hodgson's men will be looking to extend their unbeaten record to 11
games when they travel to the Hammers. And Pantsil reckons it is the spirit
that Hodgson has fostered that is driving the club forward. He added: "The
manager keeps everybody focussed. "We play as a team and that is working
very well for us - when you start to play as individuals then you have
problems. "We all respect each other and we will always be there for each
other. "We are united. "The team is like a family and we all consider each
other as brothers. "I do not think anything can go wrong for us."
Fulham's move up the table has raised eyebrows across the nation, with the
Londoners on the fringes of the European places. And the right-back is
confident they have what it takes to succeed. Pantsil added: "We know where
we want to be come the end of the season. "Our target is to finish in the
top half of the table, and we certainly think we can finish in the top ten -
no doubt about that."
Fulham's next three matches: Jan 18 West Ham (a), 24 Kettering Town (FAC,
a), 27 Sunderland (a)

Davenport move is in the balance
BedfordToday.co.uk
Published Date: 14 January 2009
Bedford-born centre-half Calum Davenport's proposed move to Bolton Wanderers
from West Ham United looks to have fallen through. The 26-year-old England
U21 international, who has also played for Spurs, had reportedly looked set
for a switch to the Reebok Stadium after falling down the pecking order at
Upton Park. But negotiations seem to have stalled for the player, who last
season coached Gloucester Arms to D&V Millward Cup glory.

Roeder Sacked by Norwich
West Ham Till I Die
Glen Roeder has just lost his job as manager of Norwich City. I got a lot of
flack from Norwich fans when I wrote in my Eastern Daily Press column that
the club would come to regret his appointment. The insults which Norwich
fans left on this blog had to be seen to be believed. Since then, I have had
a trickle of emails telling me I was right all along. Last Saturday, this is
what I wrote in my latest EDP column…
Back when Glenn Roeder was appointed manager of Norwich City I issued some
dire warnings about his abilities and the likelihood that he would get off
to a great start but then the troubles would really start. The abuse I got
via email and my blog from Norwich City fans was breathtaking. My downbeat
predictions came as a result of my own experience of Mr Roeder when he
managed my club West Ham. Since then, I have had a trickle of emails from
Norwich fans all saying the same thing: "I was one of those who slagged you
off when you wrote bad things about Glenn Roeder, but I now realize you are
right." It was Enoch Powell who said that all political careers end in
failure. The same could be said of football managers. There are very few who
have the wisdom and self knowledge to get out at the top. Most are sacked in
after appalling failure. In Roeder's case he has left every club he has
managed in a far worse position than when he took over. At Norwich he has
totally reformed the team and despite bringing in some good players has been
unable to get the most out of them. I have just read the autobiography of
former Arsenal and England player Kenny Sansom, who was Roeder's number two
at Watford. Any football club director who reads that chapter would never
give Roeder a job in football again. At the time of writing, Norwich lie a
precarious two points above the relegation trap door. The directors now have
a big judgement call to make. Do they give him until the end of the season
or do they risk things getting worse? I know which way my decision would
fall.
Call me Mystic Meg, if you like. Did I see a cab for Mr Curbishley heading
up the A11?

Faubert. My Agent is in talks with....
Setanta.co.uk
by Laurent Picard , 14 January 2009
West Ham midfielder Julien Faubert says his agent is in talks with possible
suitors. Former Bordeaux star Faubert has grown frustrated by his lack of
action with The Hammers, and he is seriously thinking of a January move away
from Upton Park. The one-time France international has revealed that his
representative is holding talks with a number of clubs that are interested
in his services. Faubert has also claimed that his boss Gianfranco Zola has
told him he relies on him, but the midfielder is disgusted not to have
appeared against Newcastle. Faubert told French radio station RMC: "Zola has
said he relies on me, but I don't see anything coming. I didn't play against
Newcastle and I don't know what he is up to.
"Right now my agent is discussing with clubs. Playing for a club such as
Lyon is my priority to re-launch my international career. "But the problem
is that my selling price is very high."

MORTE'S HULL OF A MOVE
The Daily Star
HULL will sign Luis Boa Morte from West Ham in the next 24 hours after
agreeing a £2m fee for the Portuguese star. The forward travelled to the KC
Stadium last night to undergo a medical and discuss personal terms with the
Tigers. The cash-strapped Hammers have decided to cut their losses on the
former Fulham player who cost them £5m from Craven Cottage in 2007 but has
failed to shine at Upton Park. He becomes boss Phil Brown's first signing of
the transfer window and the 31-year-old is expected to be followed by
Wigan's Kevin Kilbane once a fee is agreed. Boa Morte is not expected to
feature in tonight's FA Cup third-round replay at Newcastle. But Brown said:
"We've made progress. The clubs have agreed terms on Luis Boa Morte and
we're trying to agree terms on Kevin Kilbane."

Feeling Blue?
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
MONEYBAGS Manchester City will test the resolve of the West Ham United board
for a third time this week as they prepare another bid for Welsh
international Craig Bellamy, writes DAVE EVANS. After an initial joint offer
for Bellamy and midfielder Scott Parker was turned down flat, City stepped
up the pressure with a reputed £9.2million bid for the Welsh skipper which
was rejected earlier this week. But under-pressure City boss Mark Hughes is
determined to land the 29-year-old striker, who he coached at both Blackburn
Rovers and Wales, and he is set to come back with a bid of around
£12million. The Hammers have been consistent in their statements, claiming
they do not want to, and do not have to sell their best players, but with
the club set to face another inquiry into the Carlos Tevez affair later this
year and cash-strapped owner Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson looking to release funds
from the assets he has left, a £12million bid may be difficult to turn down.
One bid that was always likely to be accepted was the one that seems set to
send Luis Boa Morte to Hull City. The Tigers had an offer of around
£1.5million accepted for the 32-year-old former Portuguese international
winger, and if he can agree personal terms, he will be set for the KC
Stadium. Boa Morte never found his old Fulham form in his two years at Upton
Park, playing some 66 games, but scoring just one goal. He became a subject
for the West Ham boo-boys and though he always gave 100 per cent, it was
clear that his best days were long since gone. Manager Gianfranco Zola may
well have been happy to see Boa Morte on his way, but he will certainly not
be keen to see his better players leaving in January. "Obviously it would be
disappointing if this team was broken up," he said. "It has grown up through
very difficult and bad times, but it has put a lot of problems behind it.
"The players have been fantastic. Having been a footballer, I know that it's
not easy to concentrate and perform when you have so many rumours flying
around."
If that is true, then West Ham fans are in for a treat when the rumours stop
and Bellamy, who has six goals to his name this season, can concentrate on
his football! Whether that benefits the Hammers or Manchester City, remains
to be seen.

Matt's your lot!
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
IT WAS one of the greatest moments in West Ham's recent history, writes DAVE
EVANS. May 30, 2005, just before the hour mark in the play-off final against
Preston North End at the Millennium Stadium and Matty Etherington received
the ball on the left flank. He darted forward, his low cross evaded two
Preston defenders and Bobby Zamora pounced to shoot West Ham ahead and back
into the Premier League. So last week's departure of the nippy little winger
to Stoke City in a £2million deal, took a little piece of that history away
from Upton Park, and left many fans thinking about what might have been for
a man who was the club's longest serving player until last week.
Etherington, who arrived as part of the deal that took Freddie Kanoute to
Spurs, had already had success with West Ham before that Preston game,
helping the Hammers to the play-off final the previous season, where they
missed out against Crystal Palace.
Along the way he collected the Hammer of the Year and Hammers News player of
the year awards and a bright career and maybe international honours seemed a
possibility. But in the end the overriding feeling after the departure of
the 27-year-old, is one of a wasted talent. His 195 appearances in claret
and blue yielded just 18 goals - two of them this season - but at the moment
when he should be at the top of his game, he is having to rebuild his
career. Etherington's demise was two-fold. First, he found himself missing
too many games through niggly injuries, and second, and perhaps more
importantly, his off the field problems seemed to seriously affect his
ability to concentrate fully on the game. It must be hard enough trying to
give everything in the Premier League as it is, but when you are worrying
about how much you owe the bookies, or how much you are down in a card
school, then it must be almost impossible to put in consistently decent
performances. Etherington has tried to fight his gambling problems, and he
may well conquer them in the future, but it was always going to be difficult
to do that while he stayed at West Ham and therefore a move may well be just
what he needs.
A fee of just £2million shows just how far the winger has struggled over the
last couple of seasons, but West Ham fans will remember him as the player
who played in the FA Cup Final against Liverpool, who played in Europe for
the club, who claimed the Hammer of the Year award in 2004, and most of all,
for crossing the ball for Zamora to fire West Ham back into the Premier
League. He made his Stoke debut against Liverpool on Satur-day evening and
was given the man of the match award in a 0-0 draw. Hammers fans will
certainly wish him well, though not when West Ham make the trip to the
Britannia Stadium in May. Another May match-winning cross from the wing man
would be more than the Hammers' fan could bear.

Brum deal as Bowyer is off
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
LEE BOWYER'S loan move to Birmingham could herald the possibility of three
permanent moves from West Ham to St Andrew's. The 32-year-old midfielder,
who played his last game in claret and blue in the home defeat by Aston
Villa last month, has until the end of the end of the season to impress
Birmingham manager Alex McLeish enough to earn a permanent contract. And
before the January transfer window is out, the Blues may well have added
loan signing Nigel Quashie and defender Calum Davenport to their permanent
squad. Quashie, who last played for West Ham in April 2007, has played 10
games for promotion-chasing Birmingham and will be looking for a full-time
contract when his loan deal runs out in a couple of week's time. Davenport,
meanwhile, had been interesting Birmingham before the defender seemed to
have sealed a deal with Bolton Wanderers, but with that falling through,
City may well come back into the equation.
For Bowyer though, his second spell at West Ham, was almost as frustrating
as the first, when a niggly injury meant he could not find the form to
prevent the Hammers from being relegated back in the 2002-03 season. This
time round injuries have left him on the sidelines for long periods and his
hopes of forming a central midfield partnership with Scott Parker were
constantly dashed. He played 50 times for the Hammers during this spell,
scoring five goals, but even if things don't work out at Birmingham City, it
is almost certain that he will be surplus to requirements at Upton Park in
the summer. Bowyer missed out on his debut for the Blues on Saturday as
their match with Blackpool at Bloomfield Road was postponed.

Knives are out for Hammers again
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
CARLOS TEVEZ may have given a lot of joy to a lot of West Ham fans with that
dramatic winner at Old Trafford to ensure Premier League survival, but there
must be few Hammers fans left who think his arrival was a good thing.
Already fined £5.5million for misleading the Premier League over his
registration, West Ham will also probably have to pay millions in
compensation to Sheffield United over their relegation after an independent
panel ruled in the Blades' favour. And now the club faces the prospect of a
further hefty fine and even a points deduction for next season after it was
announced that a new inquiry would be held jointly by the FA and the Premier
League. The motives for this latest action seem a little unclear. The events
happened in 2006 and 2007 and the Hammers already seemed to have been
punished twice for their misdemeanours.
But it seems that a power struggle between the FA and the Premier League is
about to explode and West Ham have been caught in the middle.
The latest allegations concern Hammers' actions after the £5.5million fine
was imposed on the club. They guaranteed the Premier League that their
illegal third party contracts with Kia Joorabchian's MSI company had been
torn up allowing Tevez to play the last three matches of the season, but the
Iranian businessman's lawyer - Graham Shear - suggested to the most recent
hearing into the case, that West Ham chief executive Scott Duxbury had
verbally assured him that the contract was still in place. The chairman of
that panel - Lord Griffith - summed up the position: "If the Premier League
had known what Mr Duxbury was saying to Mr Joorabchian's solicitor following
the commission decision, we are confident that the Premier League would have
suspended Mr Tevez's registration as a West Ham player."
The word of one man against another seems the flimsiest of evidence on which
to condemn West Ham, but nevertheless it is that statement that has prompted
this latest inquiry. A statement from the club read: "West Ham United will
co-operate fully with the joint inquiry convened by the FA and Premier
League. "We have acted in good faith throughout the various inquiries and
investigations into this matter and fulfilled the undertakings to the
Premier League following the initial penalty. "We have nothing to hide and
will ensure that this is once again reflected in our evidence to the FA and
the Premier League."
However faithfully they have acted in the past, and that is a matter of some
considerable debate, it seems that this is not going to go away until
everyone has had their pound of flesh. Fulham and Wigan are waiting in the
wings for their own day in court, while like a boxer on the ropes, West Ham
continue to take the punches and insist that all is well, when their legs
are wobbling underneath them. Remember Tevez scoring that goal on the last
day of the season? Who wishes they didn't?

Valon: 'It felt like a defeat'
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
WEST HAM'S Swiss midfielder Valon Behrami returned to the first team at
Newcastle on Saturday with yet another accomplished display, but he was
still unhappy with the result. "I think the emotion I felt when the game was
finished was disappointment because we could have won the game," said
Behrami, who was rested for the FA Cup victory over Barnsley. "If we had
won, we would have been in a very, very good position. I think we showed the
right mentality, but we should not be happy with this result." That sort of
attitude is a far cry from the gloom of earlier in the season when nothing
seemed to be going right for the Hammers away from home. The 23-year-old
accepted that expectation has changed since those times: "Maybe we would
have been happier with this point earlier in the season, but we had the
opportunities to close the game out, so we are a little bit disappointed,"
he said.
* MEANWHILE, West Ham have been forced to change two more of their Premier
League fixtures. Their home clash with Manchester City, scheduled for
Saturday, February 28, has been put back 24 hours to Sunday, March 1 as City
are playing in the UEFA Cup the previous Thursday.
The game will kick off at 12.30pm, as the Carling Cup Final is being played
later that afternoon. The fixture change means that the trip to Bolton has
now been put back 24 hours to Wednesday, March 4, with a 7.45pm kick off.

Sunday's big match preview
Newham Recorder
14 January 2009
ONE TO WATCH: Clint Dempsey.
West Ham United v Fulham
Sunday, January 18, 1.30pm
Upton Park
SOME OLD acquaintances you loathe and detest and never want to see again -
Jermain Defoe and Frank Lampard for instance. But it is likely to be a very
different scenario on Sunday when some old friends make the journey across
London to Upton Park. Bobby Zamora, a Hammers fan who took the club back
into the Premier League with his winner in the play-off final, will no doubt
receive a hero's welcome - as long as he doesn't score! While John Pantsil
became a cult hero at Upton Park with his eccentric antics on the field and
his ability to keep trying when his lack of talent let him down. Add to that
Paul Konchesky and former Academy boy Jimmy Bullard and there looks to be
plenty of spice for Sunday's London derby clash. Roy Hodgson has been at
Craven Cottage for just over a year now and in that time seems to have
turned them from something of a shambles under Law-rie Sanchez, to a
well-organised team capable of holding their own in the Premier League.
After initially splashing out on Scandinavian players, he opted for
personnel with more Premier League experience in the summer, bringing in
Zamora, Pantsil, Dickson Etuhu and Andy Johnson for a combined £18.3million.
It has certainly done the trick. They are currently on a 10-match unbeaten
run which includes wins over Newcastle, Spurs, Middlesbrough and Sheffield
Wednesday in the FA Cup as well as draws against Liverpool, Aston Villa,
Man-chester City, Stoke, Spurs and Chelsea.
The emphasis on the team has meant that there have been no outstanding
players in the Fulham ranks. Johnson, who was sent off at the Cottage
against the Hammers back in September, has six goals to his name, while
Clint Dempsey has impressed with four, but Zamora has struggled to find the
net, having managed just the one. History though suggests that West Ham may
have the upper hand in this clash. They competed the double over the
Cottagers last year and have already won there this season. In fact they
have a seven-match unbeaten run against the west Londoners that they will be
keen to improve. It all points to a close game, but if West Ham can continue
their recent run of fine displays, especially with their strikers in top
form, then they should nick it.
Probable team: Schwarzer, Pantsil, Hangeland, Hughes, Konchesky, Davies,
Bullard, Murphy, Dempsey, Johnson, Zamora.
Prediction: West Ham 2 Fulham 1
