David Moyes surprised many onlookers with his team selection for yesterday's FA Cup tie against Leeds United, many expected Moyes to select a team comprising of youth players aided and abetted by a few senior players, but Moyes went 'full on' by selecting an almost a full strength team!

Moyes's decision proved to be correct as Hammers only just managed to overcome the visitors, despite them being without NINE first team players, HAD Moyes elected to play an under strength team the result would almost definitely gone the other way.

Many Hammers fans assume now David Moyes has found his redemption' at West Ham, that he has found his Nivana and is at the summit of his career. THINK AGAIN, the 58 year old Scot in an Interview with the Scottish Record, CONFIRMED that he would like to manage the Scottish national team before he hangs up his managerial boots.

There is nothing more dangerous than a limping Gordon Greenidge, a cricket commentator once said as the legendary West Indies opening batsman took to the crease at the beginning of an over, despite clearly showing signs of being 'wounded'. Of course Greenidge proceeded to absolutely destroy the opposition (England of course), who were left wondering how bad it would have been if he had been fit!

David Moyes has been there and done it as a manager in the Premier League and has 'endured' hundreds of Premier League 'pressers', which are an obligation for clubs as part of the broadcasting deal negotiated on their behalves by the PLA. Sometimes an innocuous question can jangle a nerve, getting a taut response and other times the reporter's question is given a 'stone wall', these responses are particularly amusing in the Press room.

You can read some real garbage during the transfer window, some of it totally spurious, some with an element of truth that has been 'wanged' by the writer. Speculation regarding Hammers centre back Issa Diop has been rife since before the window opened, with several clubs 'expressing' an interest in taking the 6'4" Frenchman away from East London.

It is the transfer window and all the media hacks know it is open season to tell whoppers and get away with it, one of the least reliable sources of 'genuine news' is that bastion of (sic) honesty, the Sun! So their article relating to Michail Antonio's contract extension doesn't let the truth get in the way of a good story, this is their usual modus operandi.

South Africa is considered to be quite new to the world of gambling. The act was only legalised in this part of the world in 1994, but that doesn’t mean that the population has refrained from getting involved. The country saw over two thousand casinos open their doors by the end of 1995, but that isn’t the only type of gambling that is permitted in this country. Since then, South Africa has implemented many types of gambling, so let’s look at all the ways that you can legally gamble in the country.

West Ham United's interest in bringing Everton's Lucas Digne to East London has ended almost as soon as it began due to the player's 'insane' wage demands, it is believed that newly minted Newcastle made an offer that Digne's agent has set as the ball park figure for his client to agree to a move to ANY interested parties.

Injuries to Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison have emphasised Everton’s lack of depth in the central attacking areas and despite the threat of severe FFP penalties looming, they are dead set on strengthening their squad. To do so they must either sell players, or barter them in order to comply with FFP.
