DG digs out Diame

David Gold has taken a cheeky pop at departed West Ham midfielder Mo Diame and perhaps at his former Birmingham City boss Steve Bruce.

Diame was highly critical of the squad back in the summer and made it crystal clear he couldn’t wait to get away from Upton Park.

And Gold – clearly a believer in the old principle of revenge being a dish that is best served cold – has taken a wicked dig at the player on his favoured social network Twitter.

Diame had insisted he wanted to play for a top six club and he had no chance of doing that at West Ham.

“I don’t want to stop here,” Diame told French website Hat-trick.

He added: “I still want more: Joining a club from the top six would be a dream come true.” He then went on to join Hull City

The club – managed by Bruce – has dropped down the table and currently sit in the bottom three after just two wins from their opening 15 games.

Gold took to Twitter last night to have a dig at Diame declaring: “In fairness to Mohamed Diame when he said, I want to play for a team higher up the league, he never said which league! Dg”
