Access All Areas for The Times newspaper

In a unique arrangement, The Times newspaper was granted exclusive access to every nook and cranny of West Ham United over the course of last week.

The result is a fascinating feature that starts today and will run until the end of the week in the current Newspaper of the Year, offering football fans all over the country a behind-the-scenes look at life inside a Premiership football club.

Click here to read today's installment, including focus on the build-up to our clash against Manchester United last week, anecdotes from our larger-than-life Club Doctor Ges Steinbergs, and a look at the dietary responsibilities of Team Chef Tim De'Ath.

In tomorrow's edition, manager Alan Pardew explains the thin line he has to draw between playful banter and strict discipline, while Head of Technical Support Niall Clark and Physiotherapist Steve Allen offer an insight to the workings of their departments.

On Thursday, it's the turn of the players to reveal what goes on behind the dressing-room door, while Friday's edition covers the pre-match build-up to our London derby clash against Charlton on Sunday.

It's essential reading for a Hammers fan, so make sure you pick up your copy of The Times every day this week…
