It looked as though Kevin Keegan was going to be the first Premier League manager out of job this season, although Alan Curbishley has beaten him to it by a whisker. The now-former West Ham gaffer has had his resignation accepted by the board, bringing a 17-month rollercoaster to an end and leaving the east […]

When Bobby Zamora left West Ham for Fulham earlier this summer, he claimed that it wouldn’t be the only departure from the club, with plenty of others to follow.

Whatever you want to say about Roy Keane, it would be wrong to describe him as a wallflower. The Irishman is possibly the most talkative manager in the Premier League these days, regularly adding his tuppence worth on the footballing issues of the day.

Not only have the Hammers just signed a talented defender ahead of next season, they also appear a bit peeved that people think they have run out of money. Upon leaving the club, Bobby Zamora (possibly with the taste of sour grapes in his mouth) claimed that there will be plenty more on their way […]
