Excellent news that Glenn Roeder has signed a new contract. He has
made some bold signings since taking charge as Hammers boss.
The only problem he now faces is how he can get the players to
perform away as they do at home and if he does that then maybe we
can win something again. Good luck.

I think Glenn has done superbly well (with the exception of one or
two games) since being given the chance to show what he can do at
the highest level. He has steadied the ship and instilled some good
work ethics in the players. I am pleased he has been given a
contract extension and I'm sure, with the development of Defoe
as a top class striker and other youngsters, we have the pace and
skill to be taken to Europe.

I think it is excellent that he will be signing a new contract with
us as he has been under a lot of pressure with the Di Canio on-off
transfer. At the start of the season I thought we would be
going straight out of the league with a manager that had not much
experience but he proved us all wrong as we are now in comfortable
position and hope to get a UEFA Cup place.

I like Glenn a lot. I'm impressed by the way he has
come in under a lot of pressure and taken it all in his
stride. I also like the signings he has made. NICE ONE GLENN!
Richard Swaine, Stevenage
I was a little surprised, considering we haven't yet won enough
points to guarantee our Premiership survival. But I'd like to
wish Glenn all the best and hope he takes us forward in the
future.
David Missen, Cardiff
To be honest with you I am very pleased with Glenn's progress.
I was as sceptical as the next man when he was appointed, but I
think he has used his money wisely and has brought quality players
to West Ham who are first teamers. Give him another year or two and
we will be back up in the top half sitting just below the magic
six.
Neil Fox, Bristol
Glenn deserves to be given an extension on his contract. Under his
guidence West Ham have played some very attractive and attacking
football. Joe Cole has been given more responsibility and is
playing better than ever.
