1/2 I was delighted to see the news that DS has stepped down from his role…
After our relegation, it is important that the Club is totally restructured from Top to Bottom, to enable us to get back to the PL.
Saka + Madueke doing fuck all in a European final, whilst my captain scored the winner in one and picking up the MOTM award too.
All whilst also out-performing them both individually in the League too.
Never compare them again!

West Ham - THAT night in Prague 🏆
Man City - THAT night in Istanbul 🏆
Chelsea - THAT night in Munich 🏆
Spurs - THAT night in Bilbao 🏆
Villa - THAT night in Istanbul 🏆
Palace - THAT night in Leipzig 🏆
Arsenal - THAT NIGHT IN TEARS 💦
Arsenal and Chelsea were the teams who benefitted most from VAR errors this season according to data from the Premier League’s key match incidents (KMI) panel.
This is one of the hardest days of my football career.
I’m devastated for our fans, for everyone at the club and for what this means after 7 years in the club and in the Premier League.
You deserved better from us.
Thank you for standing with us even in the toughest moments.
I truly believe the West Ham family will stay united and loyal through this difficult time, just as you always have.
Now it’s on us to respond the right way, work harder than ever and fight to bring West Ham back where it belongs.
Welcome West Ham and all your fans back to the Championship. Don't worry we have:
- No VAR 👍
- Some more 3pm kickoffs 🍻
- Millwall... And some more tasty derbies 👊
- No plastic tourists ❤️
+ the most unpredictable league in the world! 🔥
A proper league!

Hierarchy’s failures and mismanagement doomed West Ham to relegation, a fate that was sealed after Spurs’ victory against Everton.

So "make do and mend" the favoured method that David Sullivan uses to run the clubs he owns has yet again worked.
1. Birmingham City F.C. relegated from the old First Division in 1993–94.
2. Birmingham City F.C. relegated from the Premier League in 2005–06.
3. West Ham United F.C. relegated from the Premier League in 2010–11.
4. West Ham United F.C. relegated from the Premier League in 2025-26.
History has a way of repeating itself with the club's he owns. The other point of note is the fact that Birmingham City since then, have never returned to the Premier League.
This summer's recruitment will determine if @WestHam can win automatic promotion from the @EFL
or become yet another mainstay in the 2nd tier.
We need a change of ownership with a different ambition than the one we currently have.
COYI ⚒️ ❤️ 💙
Replacing our most successful manager in the Premier League for Julian Lopetegui, because he was free and out of work, was a decision that deserves this outcome
Always trying to do things on the cheap with no idea, no vision, no strategy
You deserve this more than anybody David Sullivan. Fuck off out of our club and let’s hope you finally get locked up for being a dirty nonce too 👍
Relegated West Ham's cauldron of loathing: Where is the world-class team Karren Brady promised? Nobody could undo David Sullivan's neglect, writes RIATH AL-SAMARRAI https://t.co/gKyjFwneUy
West Ham United have been sleepwalking towards relegation since August. Many might argue the drift began long before then.
This season has been an unmitigated mess on and off the pitch, with leadership voids, managerial turnover, a scattergun approach to recruitment and unrest in the stands.
Nuno fell out with players and coaching staff, at times he did not speak during half-time or after games, and there is uncertainty over his future at the club.
Plenty of players will be on the move, with relegation meaning West Ham need to raise £150m in sales this summer.

When Nuno Espirito Santo greeted the players after overseeing his first training session, he informed James Ward-Prowse privately that he would not feature in his plans.
The board were concerned with how Nuno alienated Ward-Prowse, but felt they had to back him because he was their appointment.
Off the field, tension grew stronger between Nuno and his coaches Mark Robson, Steve Potts, Gerard Prenderville and Billy Lepine.
According to multiple sources, the coach openly admitted he did not trust them.
Nuno often chose not to speak to the players during half-time and after games.
At the interval against Wolves, Robson attempted to give the players a rollicking because of the poor performance. Nuno told his assistant coach to sit down and there was a heated exchange.

“World-class team in a world-class stadium?” Second-tier team in a track-and-field stadium. West Ham United relegated to the Championship at the London Stadium. Fans have every right to be angry. They turned up. But where was the real leadership in the club? Or on the pitch in recent times (Bowen apart)? No urgency in the first half against Leeds. Taty and Bowen gave brief hope. But they couldn’t rise to the equation. Spurs survive.
Many reasons for West Ham’s demise: some iffy recruitment, some below-par coach appointments (Lopetegui, Potter), defensive issues, lack of direction from board, tensions between fans and Sullivan, as well as an unsuitable stadium (fans far from pitch, rental so difficult to generate money). Record losses. And revenue will be hammered by the drop.
Who gets sold? Fernandes and Summerville will be top of many clubs’ shopping list. And the loyal Bowen? Does Nuno stay? Will the fanbase want him to? Does Kretinsky make a move to take over? Would Sullivan sell anyway? So many questions. Who can provide the answers? Who will stand up to be counted?
West Ham need a reset, a rethink, improved recruitment and better leadership - on and off the pitch. Their fans deserve better. #WHULEE #WHU
