A West Ham spokesman confirmed to Sky Sports News that the event had been attended by 800 people, with fans paying more than £250-a-head to support the club.

Why did they think it would be a good idea to charge fans £250 to go to a party the day after they were relegated

If that money did not go to charity, that is a disgrace.

It didnt - the money raised goes to West Ham United's academy.

Well they'll be able to triple it now with all the fines they need to give.

So an extra £40,000 per year on top of his basic salary.

This is the first time going down has meant relegation for Karen Brady

Normally it means promotion.

He is by far the ****est striker I have seen in the PL since that Boogars(sp) bloke. ****ing awful player - I dread to think that we were even interested in signing him.

Should the misogyny based 'humour' not be in the bad taste joke thread?

Demba Ba just called into Talksport and told his version of events.

Apparently the fan asked for an autograph, which Ba obliged with. The guy then asked him how he was feeling, and Ba replied that he was tired from the game the day before. The fan apparently then replied "We're tired with watching you all season" and some other stuff, which Ba couldnt understand completely due to his (by his own description) non-perfect grasp of the language, but some of this was apparently racial abuse.

Da Costa and Gabbidon told Ba to walk away, which he did and the players all left the vacinity, while the fan was shouting, screaming, smashing a glass and just being a dick.

A mate of mine was there last night and said Ba didnt want to know when he asked for an autograph. He reckons this racist stuff is bollox to cover the club.
