Tomkins: Nou Camp will have to wait

|

tomkinsJames Tomkins will bide his time before packing his bags for the Nou Camp! Local boy Tonks is too aware to the Cockney Boys;’ sense of humour to do anything else !

The smiling central defender left the Hawthorns happily answering questioned from the local media pack after the Irons faithful had sung: “Barcelona. we’re coming for you” during the 2-1 win on Tuesday night.

But the 25 year old smiled: “That’s just our fans showing their sense of humour. None of them will be getting too carried away and neither will the players.

“Who knows what we can achieve but watch this space because we are on a run. We’re enjoying the football we are playing and getting a few players back that will make us even stronger.”

Speaking to The sun he added: “It’s hard to get where we are but the hardest part is to stay here. Around Christmas you can see a lot of people fading.”

    I had to laugh when I heard that and the “we are gonna win the league” there’s a real feel good factor around the team at the moment and it extends down from the board right through the team, manager and fans. Sam is different class this year and whilst there are some stubborn types he will never win over the majority of the support respect what he is achieving.

    Sullivan said early on this season he hoped for 30 points by the New Year so that we can have a go at the FA Cup. With 15 points still there to take he must be delighted. I know it’s unlikely but we could be safe on 39 points by 1st Jan!! Yeah yeah yeah, I know…..

    By the way James, I can think of some fans I’d like to see get carried away!

    Bring on the Swans. COYI’s.

    5th in the Premiership, above the Scouse and North London, 4th highest scorers in the Prem, one defeat in eight. The whole club including Sam are different class this season you dumbass!

    This change of fortune for West Ham must be really hurting you fella.
