I was starting to wonder when the West Ham drama would get a mention here. I'm sad to see Curbishley go, but don't blame him a bit. He deserved better treatment from ownership and a say in player selection. Or, at the least, a thank you for helping save us from relegation.But what the hell, getting rid of valuable people (Curbishley, McCartney, Ferdinand) and ungracious press releases seem to be what West Ham is all about these days.
@ NY Kid: You seen the 'New France' selection for the match against Austria? No Thuram, Sagna at rightback, Mandanda in net, Nasri on wing, Benzema et Henry en avance . . . thoughts?
