Well that didn't take very long, if it's true i have a sense of a bit off dodgy work going on by them ****ers who run that club.. talkSPORT understands former England boss Steve McClaren will be the new West Ham manager. The former Middlesbrough boss was relieved of his duties with Wolfsburg in December 2010 and has been looking for another role ever since. Avram Grant was sacked as West Ham manager after the Hammers lost their penultimate Premier League fixture to Wigan, sending them down to the Championship. It is now understood that David Gold, David Sullivan and Karen Brady have set their heart on McClaren to lead the Hammers back to the top-flight. The Everton assistant manager Steve Round is believed to be McClaren's first choice as this number two.
Supposedly he was sacked less than an hour after the final whistle!!! How long will Avram Grant having Chelsea on his CV keep gaining him Premier league roles? IMO i can see him being in the Chelsea heirarchy next season
reckon this one could get more names than a chinese phone directory. Steve McClaren has not held talks with West Ham United, sources close to the former England manager have confirmed to skysports.com. The former England coach has been made favourite for the Upton Park job following a wave of speculation on Monday about Avram Grant's successor - after he was sacked on Sunday following their relegation from the Premier League. McClaren was one of the early front-runners, before being made bookmakers' favourite after speculation increased about him taking the job. However, sources close to the former England and Middlesbrough manager have told skysports.com that there has been 'no contact whatsoever'. The sources confirmed: "There is no truth in Steve talking with West Ham at all. "All this has caught him totally by surprise, and there has been no contact whatsoever. "He does not know where these reports have come from and he can categorically deny having any contact with anyone at West Ham or anyone connected with West Ham." .
