…I’m back. There hasn’t been an awful lot to get Hammers’ juices flowing lately. Since I last posted properly we beat Plymouth in one of the most stultifyingly boring games I have seen, and then failed to get our just desserts from the Arsenal game. Some of the one touch football we played in that game was superb and boded well for the future. Robert Green is in simply awesome form. How he is not in the England team simply baggars belief. Paul Robinson’s credibility is shot to pieces. How many more stupid goals does he have to let in before McClaren sees what the rest of us see?

I’m delighted for Dean Ashton that he is back in the England fold. It surely can’t be too long before Mark Noble joins him there.

Anyway, after my hectic last three weeks I can promise you much more regualr posting from now on. I’m back. With a vengeance.

I really must apologise to those of you who have become regular reasons over the summer. Work commitments have prevented me from doing my normal daily posts in the last couple of weeks. However, normal service will be resumed later this week once I have left the hell-hole that calls itself Blackpool…
