The bloke can hardly walk and you want him to do a lap of honour?

You horrible person :wink:

Sad news but expected. We'll never know how good he might have been; I feel cheated not getting the chance to see that. Very best of luck to Deano in the future - football will look after him in some way shape or form; of that I have no doubt. :(

When have west ham EVER built a team around anyone in the last 20 years? If any player is worth building a team around, they'll be sold.

Anyway, back to Ashton...yes its a little sad, etc, etc, but we knew this for ages. Time to move on for all involved. Lets just hope we get some money (compensation) to pay off some more fees/fines...
Are you joking? How About this season? Jiminez?

I guess someone could wheel him round in a wheel chair - I don't want to mess his claim up! :think:

Being cynical, he's got a hell of a lot worse in the months since Duckers said "He's fit, and I'm looking forwards to seeing him play this season".

From fit to retiring in five months. With an injury he'd had for three years :think:
