From the BBC Transfer Gossip... Hammers forward Marko Arnautovic, 29, will be "ending his career" from a competitive perspective if he heads to China, says ex-West Ham midfielder Gary O'Neil. To be fair Gary, it's ****ed from a competitive perspective if he stays, as well...unless Marko writes a top notch song and he enters Eurovision for Austria...the Hammers never qualify for European competitions.
They do qualify for the qualifiers for European competitions, though. Then they get knocked out by Astra-****ing-Goo Goo.
Arnautovc has signed a one year contract extension, turning down the £200k per week offer from China.......so safe to assume he’s hardly likely to have accepted lesser terms to stay with the Perpetual Failures. 200 feckin’ grand a week!!! Guess they need to find somewhere to waste the £40m money they saved from ripping off the residents of Newham and the peppercorn rent they pay for the White Elephant.
This is being investigated, apparently. I know a Sikh Liverpool fan who was at the game and heard similar but more directly racial abuse. It's all a bit Millwall.
Former West Ham player Tomas Repka has been convicted of fraud and ordered to spend 15 months in jail in the Czech Republic. It's unclear whether any footage of him playing was used in the trial.
Using footage of him as a Spanner player in prosecution AFAIK is deemed by the UN to be a violation of his "human rights" . And similarly if used in his defence as mitigating circumstances, deemed to be a "hate crime" .
