Wow!
Kinda feel sorry for those Hammers fans who suspect 'their' club has become just another subsidiary of Corporate Soccer Inc.

To put that "only" into perspective, there's a lot of context around the largely hot air emanating from the board about their net spending. A couple of seasons ago, we would have considered that a lot as well.
Believe me, after conceding 11 goals in 3 games, a clean sheet against a team from 3 divisions below is a marked improved, even as poorly as we played for a lot of it.
