More than three clubs in the league.

Away from our regularly scheduled program, I bring you a little passion project of mine. In a sport that is already on an uneven keel compared to its male counterparts, the inequality amongst the league itself is shocking. This is both in…

Where are all the West Ham fans!!  Good question Tess.

You know when you do something without thinking? At the time it makes sense and it's only afterwards you realised you messed up. When I am not travelling up and down the country in the name of the good old claret and blue, I enable others to…

Bet You’re Not Even Irish!!!

Two matches in one week, to what do I owe the footballing gods. I am joined on the road by mummy dearest again. Though she would like it to be known that anything I report her saying is taken wildly out of context. Like all good storytellers,…

Is there an age limit on being a ball girl?

The most common question I get is why do I travel the way I do? Especially midweek, and especially when involves taking time off work to do so! The simple answer is: There is nothing quite like a live game of football. Yelling at the Ref…

At least it’s not High Wycombe 

Midweek madness this time as we head into our next match. Reading had proved to be an impenetrable force when we played them earlier in the season. Many teams discount them as a middling team, easy to beat, forgetting the players they have.…

I hadn't seen Crick since November. This season supporting opposing teams had really dented our quality time together. Normally when I was trekking down to the M6, she was trekking up it. So when Manchester City moved their FA cup…

Next pay day you need another shirt : Part deux

MANCHESTER CITY HOME Last time we played them was the harrowing result of 7-1, however we have come a long way since then. We had become a much more cohesive team, found some form and had become a joy to watch. Well, most of the time…

Next payday you need another shirt

Next payday you need another shirt January was not a good month to be a West Ham fan, both in the men's and women’s teams the post-Christmas slump well and truly hit so these match's reports won't be as extensive as I don't fancy depressing…

Bri Visalli- The Interview

West Ham have been very supportive with my Blog. Players, family, managers, officials and fans have retweeted, recommended or told me personally they read my blog.  When the first post went up I slyly badgered a couple of the players I had…
