Hammers fire Henry
Whether that is the end of the affair remains to be seen as the Football Association are demanding they see the e mails in which he made claims that “we so not want anymore African players at the club.”
A statement on the official website it said: ” West Ham United have today terminated the contract of Director of Player Recruitment, Tony Henry, with immediate effect following his unacceptable comments that were widely reported in the press.
Our action follows a full and thorough investigation. West Ham United will not tolerate any type of discrimination.
The West Ham United family is an inclusive one where, regardless of gender, age, ability, race, religion or sexual orientation, everybody feels welcome and included.”
It now remains to be seen whether Henry’s use of the word “we” in his e mail comments draws further investigation.
