Noble: Payet WhatsApp stories “totally rubbish”

Payet & NobleIrons skipper Mark Noble has totally rubbished stories that Dimitri Payet was kicked out of  players’ group on phone app WhatsApp before he left the club

Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the clash with WBA he said: “”That is rubbish, it’s totally rubbish.

“I think he was only removed when he had actually signed for Marseille. That was once it was done and his medical was done – obviously you don’t want hundreds of messages going to him when we are here.”

Noble admitted, however,  the dressing was a far happier place now Payet has returned to France.

He said: “He had a massive impact on our team because he was a big player in the changing room”, he added.

“The players loved him and would do anything for him. It got a bit disjointed and it was a tough time for all of us. But it has become a happy place again.

“I think it was on the manager’s mind. He didn’t want to get rid of Dimi, but he wanted to get rid of the situation. Obviously we had to deal with all of that and the best way to do that was by winning games – and that’s what we’ve done.”

  1. just be honest Mark & say it how it was, ‘once he decided he wanted to go he acted like a spoilt wan£er, as far as the rest of us felt, he could F**k Off.. we all went out for a meal after he buggered off back to France’

  2. For those of you who don’t read the facebook group. We are crowd funding for a Claret and Hugh West Ham Flag at https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/ClaretandHughFlag £20 or more donation gets your name on the flag in small print within the design.

    The fan will be displayed at the London Stadium on Match days and at 24ft x 12ft will be the largest flag approved so far by the club.

  3. Great stuff Sean i will put in tomorrow.Im just off to my pit tonight.Us old uns need our rest lol

  4. Am I the only one who thinks the adds on this site are out of control???? They are that bad I thought i had virus, wiped my device but still loads of adds and now a moving one across bottom of page???? Really like this site but getting to be way to much

    • I must admit the ads have reduced the time I stay on the site.The usual line is that it pays the bills.I have come to the conclusion that we either lump it or leave it.

  5. I’m in!

    “Hugh & Seans Claret & Hugh Army”

  6. I completely accept Hughs choice to have ads here. The quality and frequency of articles here are because Hugh has ads. It’s why we get Sean’s excellent input as opposed to Iain Dales site that rely on his posters in the main. So the ads are a small price to pay imo. However what does annoy me is certain types of ads. Those that cause the screen to jump around as they open and the worse type are the ones that take you onto their site whether you want to or not and when you shut it down you have to log onto C&H again. If Hugh or his advertising partner could be more selective I’d be happier. Not a moan just a constructive comment.

  7. Pop ups were the ones i couldnt tolerate.However i dont have them anymore.The ones elsewhere i dont even notice.Stop moaning you sound like whtid users lol
