"Rickie is fine," Nigel affirmed. "He trained Monday and Tuesday in two really hard training sessions, then Wednesday was a recovery day and he had another super training session on Thursday. He is running around and banging the ball in the back of the net.

ID: Would you have looked at bringing Alan Pardew back? He has always said he has got unfinished business at West Ham, hasn’t he?

Yep, passing on Pardew because he failed to get us promotion 3 years running. What a mong.
