As 2021 draws to a close we reflect on what has been another terrible year for some. Covid has seen some of us lose loved ones, others have been very ill, and financial hardship is now a reality for many of us.
The West Ham family has come together; more than ever. Many fans have contributed to the Bobby Moore fund, Isla Caton and the The Irons Supporting Foodbanks initiative. Many unsung heroes have worked extremely hard for these three causes and more. Well done all.
The club, manager and players also contributed to the foodbanks and this was much appreciated.
We have seen the expansion of Neil Taylor’s ‘Hammers for Work & Support’ page. More great work and I doff my cap to those involved.
Watching our beloved Hammers gives us welcome respite and 90 minutes when we can try and forget our problems and cheer on our team. We have seen another good start to the season and a successful start to our European campaign, with plenty of goals and positive results. The club did not invest sufficiently in the transfer window leaving us with gaps in the squad but David Moyes, his management team and the players have responded magnificently and brought some cheer to us in these difficult times.
Hammers United continues to strive towards improving things for West Ham supporters. Please help us by spreading the word and by encouraging your West Ham friends and family to join us.
On behalf of Hammers United I wish all West Ham fans a wonderful Christmas and a happy and healthy new year. Family is most important to all of us, but West Ham United is our second great love, so lets wish for a successful new year for our beloved club. An FA Cup win would be nice.
Up The ‘Ammers!
God bless you all.
Paul (Bubbles).
(Chairman) Hammers United.
