Danny Dyer and Ray Winstone kicking off a bit could help, but, again, they've probably had a corporate tapping up
I have never heard Brand back the board at anytime. Pretty sure he is 100 % against them and the new stadium.
I think he has given up on it all to be honest.

Not "celebrities" but can't find another thread to mention this.

ITV racing just featured Noble, Collins, Hart and Evra as part of their Cheltenham build up.

Was pretty funny to be fair, they each had to attempt a big race commentary. All were in WHU branded gear.

Collins clearly spend his time in the bookies. Knew far too much.

Australian comedian (?) Adam Hills from 'The Last Leg' recently confessed to being a Hammer.

Brand got involved with some of the marketing briefly and has managed to get 'backstage' in the past, I can imagine he's had to have had some friendly dialogue with them for this to happen

At 0.55 the tramp/insectivore is wearing an old school Hammers scarf clearly purchased pre "West Ham London".

I heard tv and radio presenter Paul Ross - Jonathan’s brother- explain this morning that their dad was a Spurs fan and the first match he was taken to was at WHL v Man Utd. By then though, he said his mind was made up and he was West Ham because his pals were and it was his nearest club.

If we got to the FA Cup Final all these so-called celebrities would come out of the woodwork for sure. Didn't one of them do a piece in the match programme at Cardiff in 2006? Incidentally Noel Edmonds always used to mention us on his live BBC TV show on a Saturday evening (Big Breakfast?). That is until it was taken off air when some poor sod died doing one of their infantile stunts!!!

I also saw Noel Edmunds in the east stand back in the 80's. Since saying he was West Ham though he has claimed to be an Exeter City fan and more recently Manchester United.
Fatima Whitbread was in the programme on Saturday, long time fan as is her son.

Saw Edmonds at some games in the last season at UP. He's really short, but his hair appears to hover several inches above his head.

Arthur Askey was a regular visitor as he spent much of his time in London for years, I even remember him being presented to the crowd on occasion indeed. We were clearly his 'London' club.

Had to do a search to see who the woman is in the above picture. Seems she is Mia Khalifa, a pornstar.

Remember seeing Noel Edmunds at Old Trafford outside our end for the last game of the great escape season.

Miserable **** didn't even crack a smile when I asked "What box number you in?" :D
