A small group of West Ham fan screamed abuse at former manager Glenn Roeder, when Newcastle played the Hammers at Upton Park on Sunday. They called him ‘Tumour Boy’ and asked ‘why didn’t you die three years ago?’
Depressing stuff. What with last night’s Panorama, the Cashley Cole/Gallas saga, the Tevez/Mascherano deal and constant reports of racism on the terraces, the beautiful game is looking uglier than ever right now.
