"West Ham manager Alan Curbishley claims his club have accepted a bid from Sunderland for Anton Ferdinand. The 23-year-old defender is reportedly considering the offer, thought to involve a fee of approaching £8million. 'The board have accepted the bid', said Curbishley, 'and the decision was taken out of my hands'. "
Anyone who is a Hammers fan should be distressed about the financial situation in which West Ham find themselves. The news that Ferdinand has to be sold to help offset the terrible cost of the signings made two years ago tells much about the current status of the club's pocketbook. The news is especially telling after today's thrashing by Manchester City. I fear dark times to come if a combination of a thin squad and persistent injuries becomes the West Ham norm.
