Supporters review of the season: West Ham
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.We started with Alan Curbishley, under whom the football was less than inspiring. A row over transfer policy saw him leave, to be replaced by Gianfranco Zola & Steve Clarke, under whom there was an obvious shift in favour of the passing game.
Meanwhile, Lord Griffiths' insane ruling proved once and for all that peers of the realm and care in the community don't mix. Injuries, and Craig Bellamy's predictable departure, left us with a forward line akin to a comedy act with two straight men, despite which we still had an outside chance of Europe. Oh, and our owner went bust and the banks are coming in any day to repossess us. A fairly quiet season by our standards.
Which team were your best opponents?
Hartlepool in the cup - for their support and hospitality.
Who would you most like your team to sign this summer?
Kevin Doyle at Reading might be available within our price range, Icelandic banks permitting.
Weirdest/Funniest moment
David Di Michele's tumble. Doing it at all was bad. Doing it against Liverpool, the league's diving experts, made it so much worse.
