Submitted by nevillenixon on

The mystery illness that has been raging through Hammers squad shows no sign of abating, in fact such has been the effect that assembling a team that is well enoigh to face Manchester United this evening is proving to be such a difficult task that there is a rumour that the cllub may try to get the game postponed due to a lack of fit players!

There IS a Premier League ruling that does allow for fixtures to be cancelled if a 'significant' number of first team squad members are unavailable, Arsenal have utilised this facility before now, so there is an outside possibility tyhat the fixture might be moved.

Medicals will be held during the day up until midday to determine what is the best course of action, however fans travelling from Manchester will be left in a quanduary as to whether to set off for the game or not.
