Potts farewell to Hammers

|

dannyWest Ham youngster Danny Potts has penned an emotional farewell to the club, staff and Hammers fans following his release from the club he spent 12 years at:

“An extremely emotional & difficult day personally in which there is no creditable way to sum up what West Ham United has done for me over the past 12 years. From the staff & players to the fans that have supported me through dark times and the very best of times I will be forever grateful. The club has taught me so much not only as a player on the pitch but a person off it. I will never forget my time at West Ham and want to wish the club and the people associated nothing but the best for the forthcoming seasons & hopefully give the fans the success they deserve! I look forward to what challenges and opportunities await me and with that I am excited for what the future holds for myself. It’s been an absolute privilege & honour to have been able to represent the club that means so much to me and there are no words that will justify it all! Thank You WHUFC!”

    I agree madham of all of the ones leaving Pottsy has not had a good crack at it,
    With Cresswell coming good this year and the lad from Hamilton coming this season it’s
    Hard to see a place for him
    Pottsy you will have a good career but not with us GOOD LUCK

    I concede bias, since his old man is my all time favourite Hammer. Nevertheless I would have liked to have seen Dan Potts given a proper go before booting him. Not giving blokes a go while watching others consistently fail has unfortunately been the norm lately at our club in my opinion. Hopefully change is coming in that department.

    Has this situation been caused by hippo and his “” ERM””favourites??????guess who they are?.

    Sad.
    Kid get’s thrown in, makes a more than respectable debut, continues to show a lot of promise on the occasions when we needed him (including some great crossing ability), & now simply discarded.
    Thankyou Dan and good luck for the future.
    Yet another victim of the Allardyce era who deserved better, and may yet come back to haunt us.
