About this time of the season West Ham fans will be realising – if they hadn’t done so before – that the Championship is a very different beast to the Premier League and the 46-game calendar is a marathon for each and every participant, each club on their day capable of beating the others. Predictable it is not.
West Ham sit currently outside the promotion places, one manager down and with new appointee Scott Parker desperately hoping to steady the ship during the international break. It’s been something of a rollercoaster for the 50,000 supporters who signed up for season tickets in the summer – many, anecdotally, on the back of a wave of optimism generated by David Sullivan’s resignation.

Fans can make their judgement known on the new-era West Ham board
The new shape of West Ham’s board has still to be confirmed, with Kretinsky’s leadership ‘assumed’ but not yet ‘declared’ by West Ham – leaving some fans unconvinced.
With all of that in mind, The NY Times is offering supporters a chance to make their own feelings known with their West Ham United fan survey. Canvassing opinions about matters on, and off the pitch, West Ham fan and journalist Roshane Thomas has created his questionnaire in an article entitled “West Ham fans, how are you feeling about this season:” – I’ve completed it and I’ll bet there are thousands who’d like to do the same and get their own thoughts across.
Link above takes you to the survey: Will be intriguing to see the results when they’re published.
