Show Notes
It was a relatively quiet transfer window for West Ham, with just two players through the door and a handful of exits, but there does seem to be a more positive at the club at the moment.
The 2-0 FA Cup victory over Derby County on Monday night made it three wins and as many clean sheets from our last four games - which is the kind of form we just couldn't see coming only a few weeks a go.
But, we've drawn Man United away in the FA Cup 5th Round - the fifth time in the last seven seasons we'll make the trip to Old Trafford in domestic cup competition - and no one is even a bit surprised about it. At what point do we start asking questions about the validity of these draws?
On this week's show, James and Will discuss the win at Derby, the January transfer window, the FA Cup draw and then look ahead to Saturday's trip to Newcastle.
Also this week, Russ Budden from our new partners, West Ham Network, pops in to give his views on the club's business in January, before we're joined by The Sun's Head of Sport and Newcastle fan, Shaun Custis, to preview our game at St. James' Park on Saturday evening.
It's a little bit different this week but still packed with all your favourite stuff!
