What a good idea. Then TP would be able to work once again with what he has available to him - lumping it up to Andy Carroll for a knock down and hopefully Kevin Nolan will tap it in and do his chicken dance. Spectacular. What has now come to be known as the 'West Ham way'.

With Trevor Brooking's 10 year England legacy at £350k p.a. and the spectacular plans for the B-league we can soon hope to see England marching to glory in 2 world cups time playing the 'West Ham way'.

You couldn't make this stuff up.
