Okay, i'm a big fan of Matthew Etherington. I am always defending him when Spurs fans say how rubbish he is. I think his style of play - direct and fast - is good to watch and with 10% more on his final ball i reckon he could've played international football.
Please, stop laughing, i'm serious.
I think he added a new exciting dimesnion to West Ham - especially under Curbishley when structure was so rigid.
However, the national press must feel a little let down - perhaps even ashamed (is it possible for a national newspaper sports journalist to feel the emotion of shame?) after weeks - nay months - of predicting the demise of West Ham and the 'fire-sale' to end all fire sales - including Woolworths - as we approach the middle of January West Ham appear to be on the verge of selling...........*drum roll please*.........Matthew Etherington to Stoke for £3.5m.
How will the club survive i hear you ask? I don't know the answer to that but watch this space.
Whilst i'm on the subject could i also say 'Take a bow son' to Guardian 'sports' reporter Tom Lutz who reported the INCREDIBLE news that West Ham would consider selling any of their players - consider it i tells you.
Tom my good man - could you point me in the direction of a club anywhere in the world who would not consider selling a player, any player, if a reasonable offer came in? Astonishing story.
'if someone offers us money for our players we will think about it' - astonishing. Good work.
