BYE BYE BUBBLES!

The story of West Ham’s season is like a storyline out of hit Sky One football drama ‘Dream Team’. The drama on the pitch came to a dramatic end on Sunday with a defeat at Wigan which confirmed their relegation. The hammers have been pretty rubbish all season and I feel they truly deserve to go down. They had one good player but the rest really need to take a long look at themselves, as they let the club and the fans down. The likes of Keane, Bridge, Upson and Boa Morte have not pulled their weight. In true West Ham fashion they gave their loyal fans hope by leading 2-0 at Wigan at half time looking like the great escape was on. Then the nerves kicked in and they went down 3-2.

In the Championship it’s Swansea v Nottingham Forest & Cardiff v Reading.

In the end QPR heard the news everyone wanted to hear, just an hour before kick off on Saturday against Leeds the news came though that no point deduction would be given this meant QPR who lead the Championship from November would be going up as champions. To be fair it’s what they deserved. They have been the most consistent team in the league and have the best defensive record in the league. The team lead by Neil Warnock has been the best team by far. Warnock mixed experience, youth, pace, power and one magical Moroccan to take Rangers up to the Premier League. It’s now going to be very interesting to see what happens at Loftus Road now. They have some very VERY rich people
