| Issue 10 A collection of exclusive quotes from EX Magazine Issue 10 MARK WARD EXCLUSIVELY TOLD EX: On Lou Macari I found it hard to believe how the club could employ someone who had gambled against his own team and I just found it impossible to play for him. On Billy Bonds Billy used to start training in the gym an hour before everyone else and I used to do the same in the hope of being as fit as he was. He was first class and the type of person who you wanted to play for. I just wish that he had got the job after John left. On fellow Boys of 86 who were passed over I look at West Ham's situation and it's quite surprising that people like Alvin Martin and Alan Devonshire weren't given a chance to show what they can do.  KEITH COLEMAN EXCLUSIVELY TOLD EX:On the Chicken Run banter Because I played out wide, the Chicken Run was always special for me. You could hear the comments and wisecracks from there, things like: 'You're not mustard today, Coleman!'. On Bonzo's dressing room barney with Ted MacDougall at Leeds Ted was standing on the halfway line, doing nothing, while they were running rings round us. Ron (Greenwood) was there and saw what was happening. The incident between Bill and Ted took place in the bath/shower room area - and he just let them get on with it. On the 1976 ECWC campaign There is something special about European nights. Midweek, floodlights, full house. BOBBY HOWE EXCLUSIVELY TOLD EX: On Harry Redknapp You can't be involved as a manager in this country for as long as Harry has without making more good decisions than bad ones. And he made some very good decisions for West Ham. On John Bond He wore his emotions on his sleeve, so you always knew whether or not he was happy. TREVOR HARTLEY EXCLUSIVELY TOLD EX: On Harry Redknapp I remember one game when we were playing in the old Metropolitan league. Harry was 40 yards away, near the halfway line, chatting to the crowd and asking fans who had radios the result of the Grand National. The next thing, Harry's raised his fists in the air, having backed the winner! On John Bond Rather than sitting around the hotel and checking on his players, John would be out in the city with his chequebook, buying things like a four-poster bed. He wanted to be flamboyant, like Malcolm Allison. |
