People of Clacton! Show your support for me by putting a bin outside your house, one day this week, of a colour of Tendring Council's choice. This will be unequivocal proof of the success of my campaign.
Pablo Fornals has scored against Arsenal in a pre-season friendly tonight. He then immediately put up the crossed irons with his arms as the celebration.
He loves West Ham so much, and the feeling is definitely mutual.

Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface#VoteyMcVoteface#YesWeTinCan
🤣 Surreal scenes on #Newsnight.
Count Binface makes prime-time TV, Gillian Tett suggests Nigel Farage may finally have met his match, and Paddy O’Connell fails to unmask the man beneath the bin.
Binface’s pitch?
“Vote for me to save £350,000.”
@CountBinface winning now means the parliamentary standards process won’t trigger another by election.
British politics is on 🔥 🗑️🇬🇧
Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house.
Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it.
Leave him to me.
“Gianni, that red card, big mistake. Huge. The worst mistake I’ve seen. Truly. Everyone’s saying it. Reverse it. You guys at FIFA, you can do that. You’re the boss. Make the call. The ratings will tell you, look at the numbers, they don’t lie. Huge numbers. Make the call.”
This isn’t how I imagined ending the season.
Not with West Ham. Not with the Czech Republic. And certainly not with an injury.
I’m sorry we couldn’t give our fans the moments and results you deserved. That hurts me more than anything.
The good thing about football is that there’s always another challenge waiting. A new season is almost here, bringing a new opportunity to put things right.
For 12 years as a professional, I’ve been lucky enough to avoid a serious injury. Now I have to face a challenge I haven’t faced before. But everyone who knows me knows one thing.
I never give up!
This injury doesn’t change my mindset. If anything, it makes me even more determined. I’ll use these next few weeks/months to work, recover and come back stronger. As a player, as a teammate and as a person.
Since the season ended, I’ve only had one thing on my mind. West Ham United. This club means so much to me and I’m ready to do everything I can in helping get it back to where it belongs; to the English Premier League.
For the immediate future, I’ll support the boys off the pitch whilst I rehabilitate. Then once back, I’ll give everything I have on the pitch, fighting alongside the boys once again.
COYI!
As for the international team, I need some time to think about my future.
I’m deeply disappointed with how our World Cup campaign ended. I know we are capable of much more in every aspect than we showed, and that’s one of the biggest reasons why this disappointment is so difficult to accept.
Representing the Czech Republic has always been the greatest honour of my career. That’s why I don’t want to make any decision in the heat of the moment. I’ll take the time to reflect and decide what’s best for everyone.
One thing is certain.
I’ll be back.
Stronger. Hungrier. More determined than ever.
Thank you for standing by me through everything. Your support means more than words can say. ❤️
