West Ham – Squad and a few stats..

Chris and Dave have picked a squad of 17 for Saturday’s game against West Ham – Having 2 keepers allows us one extra from the usual 16. The squad is based on recent away game attendance, thanks to Murph for offering to miss out.

The squad is -
Tom, Jez, Jamie, Aidy, Matt A, Stone, Dan, Phil, Grino, Ed, Big Stu, Stu N, Panos, Myall, Joel, Soloway and Jimmy.
Stand by -
Murph, Wazza.

Please could all players be there by 9.45 sharp.

West Ham are well on course to becoming our most played opponents. This will be the 20th time we’ve met – only the 4th IFA team we’ve played that many times – we’ve also met Forest and Fulham 20 times and QPR are our most played opponent – we’ve met them 24 times.

Our last win was a 2-0 success in the Stevenage Tournament in 2010, and our last league win was a 6-0 victory in November 2007. Our leading scorer against West Ham is Murph with 6 – Mathers and Jimmy have 5 each while Polly, Dundon and Wazza have 3. A total of 25 different players have scored.

87. James Hannaford

Position – Right Midfield
DOB – 8/1/1987
Apps – 32
Goals – 4
Debut v Unknown – 2004
Worldnets – 6
Nickname – Jimbo

Worldnet regular James joined the WIFC ranks back in 2004, but being exiled in Leeds has restricted his appearances to the end of season shindig. Despite this, James has shown he has an eye for goal and some decent skills on the right wing and has become a key player for the A team in recent seasons. Now moved back South, James is also known for a superb strike against WIFC for the Glory Horns team a few seasons back, and will always be remembered for bravely serenading Rich Walker during his Backstreet Boys rendition with Joel Moody for his Worldnet debut song.
