If Scarles is our first choice left back, we will be lucky to make the playoffs!

I would think kilman, pablo, the midget in goal, the lack of a goalscorer, no creativity or pace through the team are much bigger concerns than scarles who did ok in the PL when played at lb not RB, he's a youngster that lacked a little bit of confidence after being played completely out of position so having a pop at a youngster with no context is bizarre to be honest

The Championship is relentless. We will need as many fit players as possible.
Of course Scarles will have plenty of game time. He's shown enough to deserve it.
I can see Kante, Potts, and even Orford as both subs and starters during a hectic, busy season.

They will all get their chance. How good they are is another story.

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

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?

At £5m he is an easy option to replace Pablo. At least Ballard knows where the goal is.

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.

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.

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.

He's Pena's son who played in the same Porto team as Nuno.

Whatever the reason, he's bloody useless.

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.

You're joking, Joyful 2, we're the favourites for the title so I think we're going to get plenty of TV exposure.

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.

Not all round the world like the Premier League, Stevie. We won't.

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.

Don't believe all you read, not true, sorry.

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.

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.

On Wednesday Xabi Alonzo becomes Chelsea manager.
One of his tasks will be to decide blucos position on Summerville and Bowen, and of course Disasi.
We shall see?

Bowen to Villa by the end of Summer.

Bowen has been offered a new contract. You can't amend the old one; same wage, same conditions, etc., starting July 1st. He has not yet signed. The pressure all round is going to start. Next Monday, back to training for all those not involved in the World Cup.
