Apparently serious interest in Dom Ballard priced at £5m and Sydie Peck?

02 Jul 2026 20:28:40
Can Ballard step up? Might be a little risky.

Peck also represents a gamble. We cannot be in the market for too much risk.

We should perhaps be doing better than these two?

03 Jul 2026 22:23:01
At £5m he is an easy option to replace Pablo. At least Ballard knows where the goal is.

04 Jul 2026 09:17:59
That's true, tbh I forgot Pablo. For me, he's just not a player. I don't know what Nuno sees in him. I know some people think he will do well in the Championship, I just don't see it.

There's been a bit of interest in him, if that comes to anything I'd get him gone pronto, just my opinion.

04 Jul 2026 12:23:02
He's Nuno's old team-mate's son, that's what he sees in him, Joyful. It definitely can't be anything football-wise.

04 Jul 2026 12:52:29
I heard a rumour that Pablo is in a relationship with one of Nuno's daughters. I have no idea if there's any truth in it.

04 Jul 2026 13:06:59
He's Pena's son who played in the same Porto team as Nuno.

04 Jul 2026 15:30:47
Whatever the reason, he's bloody useless.

04 Jul 2026 16:04:09
Agreed, Tin, complete rip-off offers nothing.

Looks like we’ve agreed a deal with Spurs for Fernandes £85m apparently.

30 Jun 2026 19:31:14
I hope he does as well as Kudus.

30 Jun 2026 19:55:20
Well, we need at least 2, maybe 3 midfielders now, we have zero creativity in the middle, not that we had much anyway.

30 Jun 2026 18:05:36
Spurs have agreed 85million deal to sign Fernandes according to SSN and Summerville is man us top target to replace Rashford.

30 Jun 2026 15:53:44
Last year's sponsor shirt deal was £12.25m, now in the Championship. Although not official, I’m told it’s quite a bit less, not so much TV exposure.

30 Jun 2026 18:13:24
You're joking, Joyful 2, we're the favourites for the title so I think we're going to get plenty of TV exposure.

30 Jun 2026 18:29:17
We are the favourites, but there's been less exposure in the past, there's no guarantee in how many games we will feature, all coverage can be changed, there's far less tv money in that division, West Ham will receive less money from Boyle Sports for sure.

30 Jun 2026 18:29:39
Not all round the world like the Premier League, Stevie. We won't.

01 Jul 2026 06:55:53
According to sources the deal with Boyle is worth 12mil this season. Boyle feel that West Ham's exposure will be greater this season than it was last year. The reason being, us playing in the Championship is massive news, and everyone is watching to see how we fare in the Championship.

01 Jul 2026 15:17:24
Don't believe all you read, not true, sorry.

01 Jul 2026 15:43:27
A question for WHTID, a fellow supporter in friendship: why would anybody rush to watch West Ham in the Championship? Why not Wolves, Burnley, or Norwich? Championship sides have nowhere near the exposure of the Premier League, which is shown worldwide. Championship football is not, and will not be, shown globally in the near future, for sure.



Why would anybody pay the same amount, or similar, to any club who has lost that coverage? Perhaps they are. Donors, fair enough, no company is going to pay the same for minimal coverage.

If you wanted advertising space, would you? I wouldn't, for sure!

Front of shirt sponsor. So it isn't Capital Water as previously stated, it is Boyle Sports again.

30 Jun 2026 09:42:11
Yup, the deal with Capital Water was very small, and made because Boyle Sports' contract had expired and would have closed anyway with relegation, bringing different sponsorship financial levels.

Boyle Sports have renewed at a lower cost. WH are talking to Capital Water Ltd, to see if they are interested in a sleeve advert.

Incidentally, it was another of Sullivan's crappy deals. West Ham are currently trying to sort out some other Sullivan deals; one is catering.
