Pre-season friendly
Bishop's Stortford v West Ham United XI
Woodside Park
Wednesday 5 August 2009
7.30pm
Referee: Chris O'Donnell
Final score - Bishop's Stortford 1-0 West Ham United XI
Alex Dyer will come away from tonight's game knowing he has some things to
work on before the new season but, equally, the reserve team manager will
know he still has four weeks until his team open their Barclays Premier
Reserve League South campaign.
Full marks to Bishop's Stortford, who played some neat football and
withstood West Ham's second half performance to nick a late winner.
92 mins - Edgar cuts inside from the right and shoots from long-range, but
his effort is straight at Eyre, who stops the ball with ease. Seconds later,
the final whistle is blown to cheers from the home supporters.
91 mins - We're into time added on for stoppages. We've had a shed load of
substitutions, so there could be a couple of extra minutes.
90 mins - We're into the final minute of the 90 and Hines forces Eyre into a
fine save with a snapshot on the turn. The goalkeeper did well to turn the
ball aside at the near post. The resulting corner is deep, but N'Gala is
penalised for a foul. Is that West Ham's last chance gone?
88 mins - I doubt there is going to be a lot of added-time, so West Ham are
going to have to hit back very quickly. They are trying their best, forcing
a throw-in deep inside the home half.
87 mins - GOAL! Substitute Jackman heads the ball in at the near-post from
Wright's corner to give the ten-men the lead. Angus comes on for Goodacre
straight after the goal.
86 mins - It actually looks like the hosts want to bring on another
replacement, but he's not ready yet. I can see him pulling on his red
shorts. Meanwhile, Zola slides in to concede a corner. Before they take it,
84 mins - Stortford are down to ten men for the remainder of the game as No5
Goodacre has been forced off with an injury.
83 mins - The impressive goes on a slalom run through the West Ham defence,
dancing around two challenges before finally being crowded out. He looks
like a decent player, the Stortford No7. Meanwhile, the star names are
slowly disappearing into the night. Sheringham and Lambert have both headed
home, as have Stimson and Robson.
81 mins - We're into the closing stages here at Woodside Park and neither
side looks like breaking the deadlock. West Ham have definitely improved
since the break, but they have seldom threatened Eyre's goal. Encouragingly,
however, the Hammers have not really looked like conceding either.
79 mins - Adam Bolle replaces Stortford striker McKenzie for the final
eleven minutes.
78 mins - Edgar loses the ball to Jackman. The substitute skips past Payne,
who cynically pulls him back, earning a stern ticking off from the referee.
The resulting free-kick comes to nothing.
76 mins - Kurucz is out bravely to dive at the feet of Jackman. That was a
decent chance for Stortford, who had three men in advanced positions against
only two defenders.
74 mins - A sixth change for West Ham. Savio is the man to be replaced, with
Hungarian Matyas Magos the man to join the fray.
70 mins - Another change for the home team as Richard Priest replaces Ben
Bowditch.
67 mins - Stortford win a corner off N'Gala. Before it is taken, Ben Nunn
replaces right-back Jones. Seconds later, Jackman has a dip and Spence
deflects the ball over the crossbar and out of the stadium. The England U19
defender gets a pat on the back from Kurucz for his bravery.
66 mins - Zola switches the play to Payne, who passes on to Kearns, who cuts
inside before finding Edgar. The forward has a go from long-range, but Eyre
gathers.
65 mins - Kearns and Zola have both looked good since coming on, while Payne
has picked up his game since the interval and is now dictating things in the
midfield. All West Ham need is a goal as reward for their efforts.
63 mins - West Ham have really picked their collective game up here. Kearns
comes close again, but Eyre palms aside his well-struck shot from the left
edge of the area. Stortford make a second change, replacing Nicholls with
No18 Reece Prestedge.
62 mins - Kearns nearly completes a superb move involving Zola and Savio,
but he cannot beat Wright. Moments later, Savio fizzes a low shot in from 25
yards, but it is too close to Eyre.
59 mins - That was Sheringham's last involvement as he is replaced by Duane
Jackman. Tonight's attendance is 751.
58 mins - A superb header from Zola clears the danger from under his own
crossbar after Sheringham had fed Harris and the midfielder had driven the
ball into the six-yard box.
55 mins - A decent chance for Harris, but Savio works back well and
half-blocks the midfielder's effort and Kurucz gathers. The pace of the game
has really picked up here. West Ham break, but Hines cannot beat Eyre from a
narrow angle. The changes have certainly livened things up.
53 mins - A quick throw from Kurucz finds Hines, who flicks the ball to
Savio. The winger repays the favour, but Hines can only divert his shot
narrowly over the top.
52 mins - Zola lifts a lovely pass over the Stortford defence for Hines, but
the striker's shot bends just wide of the far post.
49 mins - Zola is at left-back, with Spence and N'Gala in the centre of
defence and Brookes on the right. The midfield three are Kearns, Payne and
Grasser, with Edgar, Hines and Savio up front.
46 mins - Five changes for West Ham at the break. Fry, Eyjolfsson, Lee,
Quashie and Nouble are the men to go off, with Zola, Brookes, Grasser,
Kearns and Edgar the replacements.
Half-time - Bishop's Stortford 0-0 West Ham United XI
46 mins - We're into added-time and referee O'Donnell blows the whistle
after just 15 seconds.
44 mins - Into the final minute of the half and nothing much is happening so
far. Will Alex Dyer be tempted to make any changes at half-time? West Ham
will certainly need to improve if they are going to score a victory this
evening.
41 mins - Nearly a superb goal from the home side. Eyre's drilled clearance
was flicked on acrobatically by Nicholls to McKenzie, who laid the ball back
into the winger's path, but his pass was just too strong and N'Gala was able
to clear.
40 mins - Jones curls in a delicious cross from the right touchline that has
Kurucz rushing to gather, which he does at the second attempt.
38 mins - Good football from Quashie, Nouble and Spence ends with Hines
forcing another corner. Savio takes the kick but it is too short and easily
headed out for a throw-in.
37 mins - Close! Danny Harris outjumps his marker, but can only head
Wright's near-post cross wide of the target.
36 mins - This stadium is a plane-spotter's paradise, being situated right
next to Stansted Airport.
35 mins - The young central defensive pairing of N'Gala and Eyjolfsson have
looked fairly comfortable so far. While the home side have kept the ball
fairly well, they have not created a huge amount.
34 mins - Savio gives the ball away and slides in to win it back, but his
tackle catches Jones.
32 mins - To be fair to Stortford, they've more than held their own here.
Things are shaping up nicely for them ahead of their league campaign.
29 mins - West Ham are definitely seeing more of the ball now, with the
experienced Quashie controlling the game to some extent. However, the front
three need to show more movement if they are going to breach the home
rearguard.
27 mins - Quashie finds Hines with a lovely lofted pass. The Jamaican picks
the ball up and looks up, but his cross is too far in front of both Nouble
and Payne. Hines and Savio have switched back again, with Savio on the left.
23 mins - Sheringham shoots from 25 yards, but his low effort is easily
gathered by the diving Kurucz.
22 mins - A quick throw-in from Spence finds Nouble, who uses his strength
to turn away from Paul Goodacre. He feigns to shoot twice before curling a
shot that flies high and wide of the far post. Good effort, though, from the
new signing from Chelsea.
20 mins - A neat bit of skills takes Harris past Fry, but his cross is too
close to Kurucz. Savio immediately breaks and wins a corner, which is headed
clear.
18 mins - Hines goes down in the box under a challenge from Jones, but the
referee waves away his protests and gives a goal kick. We're still waiting
for the first real chance here nearly 20 minutes in.
17 mins - Savio and Hines have swapped flanks in an effort to find an
opening. Savio looks especially fetching in his bright blue boots. Stortford
nearly create a decent chance, but Danny Harris' header is too far in front
of McKenzie and Eyjolfsson is able to poke the ball back to Kurucz.
15 mins - The Hammers are playing some neat keep-ball but it is all inside
their own half. Quashie, Lee and Payne are working hard to find some space,
but Stortford are matching them for effort and closing down the space well.
14 mins - West Ham are beginning to settle here. Fry curls a pass down the
left flank for Savio to chase. Jones appears to knock the ball out for a
corner, but the referee gives a goal kick.
12 mins - Savio finds Hines wide on the right with a beautiful ball with the
outside of his left foot, but the Jamaican squanders possession.
11 mins - Alex Dyer is standing at the side of his dugout barking out
instructions to his players. He always has a real purpose about him, the
reserve team manager.
8 mins - The home side can certainly play a bit. A neat passing move
involving left-back Mark Wright and Ashley Nicholls is only ended by the
alert Jordan Spence. West Ham are struggling to maintain possession here.
Another dangerous cross is hacked clear by N'Gala.
7 mins - Stortford come forward again like a big red wave, but the final
ball is in front of McKenzie and curls out for a goal kick.
5 mins - It's like a who's who here at Woodside Park. Here's Teddy
Sheringham! On the pitch, Savio wins the game's first corner. The German
takes, but Lai Bass Lette Jallow heads clear. Is that the best name in
football? Probably.
4 mins - Two famous Marks enter the stand in former Hammer Robson and
Gillingham manager Stimson. Both arrive just in time to see Ben Bowditch
sidefoot the ball narrowly over from 20 yards following a good build-up from
the hosts.
2 mins - West Ham force a succession of throw-ins down the right flank
before working the ball to the far side of the pitch where Savio skips
around a tackle before being denied by goalkeeper Eyre.
1 min - Bang on time, we're off and running as Bishop's Stortford kick-off.
7.28pm - West Ham are in their new away kit, while Stortford are in all red.
The Hammers go through a few last-minute exercises before kick-off. It's
obviously the night for Wycombe managers past and present here tonight as
Paul Lambert has joined Taylor in the stand. The former UEFA Champions
League winner is now manager of League One Colchester United.
7.26pm - The floodlights have been switched on here, but it's a nice bright
evening, so they will not come into effect until the second half, I
shouldn't think. West Ham's substitutes are heading for the bench and here
come the two teams.
7.23pm - Former England winger and caretaker manager Peter Taylor is also in
the stands. I wonder which West Ham players he is interested in taking on
loan to League One new boys Wycombe Wanderers.
7.21pm - West Ham's players head back for the away dressing room. Savio and
Quashie sign a couple of autographs before heading down the tunnel. Zola and
Nani are taking their seats in the Directors Box.
7.15pm - It is a very pleasant evening here on the Essex/Hertfordshire
border. Both sets of players are out warming up on what looks like a very
good playing surface. A few big names have turned out to watch proceedings,
with technical director Gianluca Nani and manager Gianfranco Zola among
those in attendance.
Good evening and welcome to a warm and sunny Woodside Park, home of Bishop's
Stortford and the venue for West Ham United's Barclays Premier Reserve
League South home fixtures this coming season.
West Ham have named a strong team for tonight's reserve team friendly at
Bishop's Stortford. Savio, Frank Nouble and Zavon Hines will form a potent
attacking trio, while Scotland international Nigel Quashie will captain the
side from the centre of midfield.
Hungary Under-21 goalkeeper Peter Kurucz will be between the sticks, with
Jordan Spence, Matt Fry, Holmar Orn Eyjolfsson and Bondz N'Gala in front of
him. Quashie's midfield colleagues will be Olly Lee and Josh Payne.
For Bishop's Stortford, who begin their Blue Square South campaign with the
visit of Newport County on Saturday, field former Hammer Teddy Sheringham's
son Charlie up front. Among the hosts' substitutes is Stevland Angus, who
won the FA Youth Cup with West Ham in 1999.
West Ham United XI: Kurucz, Spence, Eyjolfsson (Brookes 46), N'Gala, Fry

TC and Galey on WHUTV
WHUFC.com
Tony Cottee and Tony Gale have shared their Chinese experiences with the
WHUTV cameras
05.08.2009
Tony Cottee and Tony Gale were both with the West Ham United travelling
party that spent a week in Beijing for the Barclays Asia trophy and have
reported back on their trip to WHUTV.
The duo were in China in official roles with the club and as well as
catching all of the match action they helped out with some coaching sessions
with the local community. Now safely back in the more familiar surroundings
of east London, the pair reflected on the highs and lows of their trip and
how their thoughts are with Luis Boa Morte after his knee injury eleven
minutes into the opening game with Tottenham Hotspur.
"For the first game against Tottenham Hotspur, I think it was hard for
people back home to appreciate just how hot and humid it was out there,"
former Hammer of the Year Cottee told WHUTV.
"The big disappoint from that was the injury to Luis Boa Morte. We both wish
him a speedy recovery but we expect it will be the end of the year as the
diagnosis for the injury."
"Aside from the injury, though, there were some real plus points - the
return of Danny Gabbidon from injury and the number of Acadamey players we
had on the pitch in the second game."
Gale echoed the sentiments of the former England international by passing on
his best wishes to the Portuguese midfielder.
"I have to say that Luis was brilliant about it. It's a cruciate problem and
he will probably be out until the New Year, but he had a smile on his face
all the way through. All the fans that were in the hotel gave him a standing
ovation.
"I'm really sad that it happened to him as he was a player that was
struggling for form at the beginning of last season but he really came to
the fore at the end of it. He went through it and really came good at the
end. He was looking forward to it."
Looking forward to the weekend's game with Napoli, Gale, who played for West
Ham 359 times during a ten-year stay, believes the China trip provided
further reason for optimism about the club's promising youngsters.
"The Academy players have always been our strength and they're not just
there to make up the numbers - they are some of our better players. Mark
Noble and Jack Collison were looking fit, James Tomkins was good again as
well as Junior Stanislas and Josh Payne.
During his playing days in the claret and blue, Gale was a composed and
stylish central defender and it was the sight of another centre-half that
was back out on the pitch that really caught his eye.
"All the boys were looking good but Danny Gabbidon was excellent and he
scored in the second game against Beijing Guoan from a corner. Aside from
that, the last game I saw him play was at Grays and he played extremely well
there.
"That means we've got four really good central defenders in James Tomkins,
James Collins, Matthew Upson and Danny. So it's four good experienced
central defenders for the start of the season."

Trio called up for U21s
WHUFC.com
James Tomkins will be joined by two familiar faces in the England Under-21
squad next week
05.08.2009
James Tomkins, Junior Stanislas and Freddie Sears have all been called up to
the England Under-21 squad for the friendly in Holland next Tuesday.
Tomkins was part of Stuart Pearce's U21 squad that made it to the finals of
the UEFA European Under-21 tournament in Sweden in June. But with the likes
of Mark Noble now too old to be considered for U21 duty, Pearce has handed
five youngsters, including Stanislas and Sears, their first call-up for the
game in Groningen.
"It's very early in the calendar but this is a fantastic double-header for
the Under-21s and then the seniors," Pearce told the FA.com. "We're taking a
few players that have had the experience of a summer tournament, that will
stand us in good stead, but we have one or two new faces coming into the
squad that will have to get their feet under the table very quickly".

Bruce begins talks to sign Neill
BBC.co.uk
Sunderland manager Steve Bruce has revealed he is in preliminary talks to
sign ex-West Ham defender Lucas Neill. The 31-year-old Australia captain has
been a free agent since his contract with the Hammers expired in June. "We
have had a little conversation to see where Lucas is at," Bruce confirmed.
"We will see where he is, where his mind is at and go from there. "He is
experienced, has played in the Premier League and is on a free transfer, so
that's the attraction." Neill joined West Ham from Blackburn - turning down
Liverpool in the process - in January 2007 and was made skipper of the Upton
Park club that summer. After making 89 appearances for the Londoners, and
scoring one goal, he rejected the offer of a new one-year contract in June.
At the time Neill's agent said his player "didn't feel it reflected his
value as a player and captain".
Should Neill sign for the Black Cats he would be Bruce's second major
acquisition following the £10m arrival of Darren Bent from Tottenham on
Tuesday.

Bruce in for Neill?
KUMB.com
Filed: Wednesday, 5th August 2009
By: Staff Writer
Sky Sports are reporting that Sunderland have entered the (one-horse) race
to sign Lucas Neill. Mackems boss Steve Bruce is reported to have made an
eleventh hour bid to snatch the Australian full-back from under the noses of
West Ham, for whom Neill had been expected to re-sign following negotiations
earlier this week. The reports are very much unconfirmed at this stage but
it is clear that Neill remains unhappy with United's tabled one-year
extension offer. Scott Duxbury, talking to KUMB.com about Neill's future
recently said: "He got an Eggert Magnusson contract and so he wanted another
Eggert Magnusson contract, but that doesn't happen. "Lucas has been given a
contract that would make him one of our top earners, certainly slightly more
than the established senior players that you see every week. "But that's
still there for him to accept."
Should Neill join Sunderland he would once again join up with former Hammers
George McCartney and Anton Ferdinand, both of whom were sold to the Black
Cats a year ago. Calum Davenport, now back with the Hammers also spent time
on loan there last season. More on this story as it happens.

Bayern quash Luca Toni talk
442 Staff - Yesterday, 16:27
FourFourTwo.com
Bayern Munich have insisted that striker Luca Toni will not be joining West
Ham United on loan. The 32-year-old has netted 38 league goals in just 56
outings for the German giants since arriving in 2007, having bagged 47 and
50 league goals for previous clubs Fiorentina and Palermo respectively. The
prolific Italian - who has not been quite as lethal in front of goal for his
country - is believed to be concerned about his first-team opportunities at
the Allianz Arena in 2009/10 following the arrival of new coach Louis van
Gaal and strikers Mario Gomez and Ivica Olic. And as a result, Tottenham
Hotspur and West Ham have been linked with a move for the front-man, with
Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola also being tipped to land Barcelona forward
Eidur Gudjohnsen and Inter Milan attacker Mario Balotelli as he attempts to
bolster his forward line. However, Bayern director of sport Christian
Nerlinger has since moved to quash talk of Toni departing for pastures new,
stating there have been no enquiries. "There is no bid regarding Luca Toni.
And we are not really considering his future," he told Munchener Merkur.

West Ham United on edge as owner Straumur meets creditors
The collapsed Icelandic bank that owns the Upton Park club could be forced
into liquidation if it fails to convince creditors of a compromise today
Matt Scott
The Guardian, Thursday 6 August 2009
West Ham United could soon find themselves under the stewardship of their
third owner in six months if current owner Straumur fails to appease
creditors. West Ham United face an uncertain few weeks unless their bankrupt
owner, Straumur, can convince creditors at a meeting in Reykjavik today to
continue to support it.
Under plans to be outlined by Straumur executives, assets at the collapsed
Icelandic bank, which now owns 70% of West Ham through CB Holding, will be
managed for future sale under a "composition agreement". For that to happen,
new equity in Straumur will be issued and key creditors will be asked to
accept those shares in place of their debts in the bank. But executives
admit the new company would be "cash-flow negative for three or four years"
and if more than 30% of creditors by number or value reject the proposal,
Straumur will be put into liquidation.
"If the attempt to seek a composition agreement is unsuccessful the
winding-up committee is obliged to request that the district court place
Straumur's estate into bankruptcy proceedings," Hordur Felix Hardarson, who
has been managing the process, told creditors at a previous meeting. That
would force a fire-sale of assets such as West Ham, meaning that in an
uncertain market the club would have a third owner in less than six months.
Straumur's chief executive, Ottar Palsson, has urged creditors not to fold
the firm. "I feel there is only one option for creditors, and that is a
managed workout," he said. "It is likely to lead to far better results for
creditors."
Although Straumur has presented today's meeting as a formality, several
major creditors yesterday told Digger they would not back any plans before
seeing the details.

Yank Eyes Hammers
The Sun

Published: Today
WEST HAM are set to go Yankee Doodle Dandy with US tycoon Clark Hunt
emerging as a shock contender in a £120million buyout. SunSport can reveal
talks have started with Hammers owners, CB Holding, who have been looking to
sell ever since they took control from debt-ridden chief Bjorgolfur
Gudmundsson in June. Hunt is a football nut and owns two Major League Soccer
teams - champions Colombus Crew, who hosted West Ham in a friendly last
summer, and FC Dallas. CB Holding is 70 per cent owned by Icelandic bank
Straumur plus several other financial institutions and all are suffering in
the credit crunch. The company took West Ham as part-payment of £350m debts
built up by Gudmundsson. CB Holding produced a two-year plan to stabilise
West Ham but in June, Straumur spokesman Georg Andersen, said: "Every club
is for sale at the right price. With the market right now it will be
difficult to find the right value. "I'm not going to pretend we are going to
own the club for ever."
West Ham were effectively valued at £105m when CB took over. And a price of
around £120m would mean more security for boss Gianfranco Zola and the
squad. Hunt, 44, inherited his love of football from his late father, Lamar,
a Texas billionaire who founded the MLS in 1993 and backed America's World
Cup bid a year later.
