Moore Than Just A Club Writers On: Warm Weather Miami Training Camp Published 17/03/18 on Moore Than Just A Club
Hola Miami! As if greater insult could not be added to injured West Ham fan’s woes…then the club have only achieved the impossible. After two abysmal seasons, after a string of recent performances that flattered devils doing good deeds…the squad were whisked off to Cubano infused lands for some warmer climes and team bonding exercises.
Many fans would feel aggrieved that underperforming players are pampered in such manner whilst acknowledging there are benefits to this madness, however the final reckoning will be when players return to symbolically play Dagenham & Redbridge in a friendly on the 21st March and then vitally against Southampton on the 31st in the next league encounter. Anything other than a convincing win will not be acceptable after such a public relations blunder.
Fans’ will and wellbeing have been tested to the maximum in recent times, and for pictures to emerge of players with wives and girlfriends having a jolly time in first class hotels and on white sandy beaches…is tantamount to flaunting a total disregard for sentiments of supporters still languishing in hellish mire. Of course everyone is aware that some training is taking place, but many would question, “Por Que Miami?” Why the ‘Chicas’…and why after such awful performances…and whilst in the middle of such tensions between the club ownership and the fans?
Timing is everything is comedy but this has been a farcical decision, which may come back to haunt them all over and over again. If they wanted sand…I could have arranged for a lorry load to be dumped at Rush Green! If they wanted sun…I could have prayed to Ra or sent them to the solarium! What I wanted was anything but this! What I wanted was to shackle them together in a chain gang and have them dig ditches with nothing more than mouldy bread and stale water…now that’s team building and just as demoralising as fans are feeling right now. What a sham!
