In irony of the previous Tim Steidten chant created by fans, it appears it’s no longer he went to Dam, it’s now Dan!

In light of Tim Steidten being relieved of his duties, West Ham have been in search of a new Technical Director and have landed eyes on the Englishman Dan Ashworth. It has become more and more to light in recent times that Dan Ashworth could be appointed come the summer.

Yesterday’s announcement finally revealed when the seemingly never-ending Lucas Paqueta betting hearing would take place.

The FA revealed to Sky that the hearing will take place this month and will last three weeks, and at the end of three weeks, a verdict could be reached, depending on what evidence is and isn’t provided.

Paqueta has complied with everything that the FA have needed him to do and has also given evidence that has been required in all given circumstances.

Sky insists that the FA are looking for Lucas Paqueta to receive a ‘lifetime ban’

As the season closes, it means Graham Potter has, as of today, 120 days to decide on who renews and who departs from the club in the upcoming summer.

The headache of a decision will apply to FIVE players that we own: Vladimir Coufal, Danny Ings, Lukasz Fabianski, Michail Antonio and Aaron Cresswell.

Thursday evening signified the night that West Ham would put to bed a 366-day statistic. West Ham’s victory against Leicester would mean we’d achieve our first back-to-back victories since last year February.

Potter started the game with an unchanged eleven, and with good reason.

Ollie Scarles retained his place in the lineup, and he wouldn’t disappoint throughout his appearance for an hour. Todibo also demonstrated yet again why we signed him in the first place; a confident, quick-minded defender is just what Potter needs. It all feels planned!

West Ham are entering the final quadrant of the season, and with that comes a summer window on the horizon, we had a ‘rebuild’ in the last summer transfer window, but this time we need to take over and form some identity within this squad.

It’s no hidden secret that we’ve spent big in these past three seasons across the last three transfer windows, we have spent a total of £402,100,000 but have clawed back £197,400,000, meaning our total spent has come to a total of £204,700,000 [rounded]

No Paqueta, No problem!

Over the past few games with Graham Potter, we've been testing the waters with new tactics and have also been suffering with many injuries, which has caused us immense trouble.

After Brentford's horror show last week, today, Potter got it spot on.

We set up going back to a five-back this week, which was definitely the right call after the attempted four-back last week, which went horribly wrong.

Arsenal: Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Nwaneri, Trossard, Merino

To all West Ham fans, it was recently announced that Hammers fans could be expecting a 2-5% increase in season ticket prices for next season.

We are the 17th richest club in the WORLD, and we are the 7th richest in the Premier League, according to the Deloitte 2025 report.

It is completely and utterly sickening that all West Ham sites and fans must be writing articles, making social media posts and signing petitions for West Ham to not increase the prices.
