Full game  in a 2 all draw, West Ham conceding in the last minute

Fat Sam tried a nearly brilliant idea of putting a centre back (Winston Reid) up front when we were losing.  Actually, to be fair to our Winnie, he probably did more in the 6 minutes he was up there than Freddie Piqueone did in the 75 minutes he was there.
 
Piss poor game and result, and our Winnie looked a bit patchy for the first time I have seen this season.

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked

Now I'm firefly like a burning kite

From what I read on KUMB, he at least seemed to get slagged less than most of the others

West Ham 3-0 up after 32 minutes!
Reid just assisted Carlton Cole's goal which was West Ham's third.

Yes that is a good article, seems like he is really enjoying it. Like that he won a bet with his coach that he would score in the next 4 games. Visiting his family

IT seems Winnie is really enjoying the championship... Hitting some form... Maybe the premier league came to soon??? and he thrown out of position...

This season will do wonders for him

He actually said he was going "home" (read Denmark)

West Ham have signed a Kosta Rican (is that right?) international defender who plays right back but can play right across the back line. Hopefully this doesn't affect our Winnie's chances.

Guy Demel? He's from Ivory Coast.

Or at least he represents them internationally, but was born in France.el grapadura2011-09-01 12:16:03

Guy Demel was born in France and obviously became a citizn of the Ivory Coast cause he was not good enough to play for France.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

Demmel can also play midfield apparently, so seems to be more of a utility signing than specifically to play any position.
 
I tweeted the page in the last match day programme about his top 5 games - one for Denmark U19's vs Spain U19's which ended in a mass brawl, his debut for NZ vs Aussie, NZ vs Slovakia, debut for West Ham vs Villa and the game for WH vs Burnley when he scored his first goal for the club

Played ok it seems

"Alongside Faye, James Tomkins limped off midway through the first half with a groin strain that will keep him out for ten days, meaning the rested Winston Reid had to come into the fray. He was to more than play his part but the manager was concerned to lose Tomkins"

Played the full 90 minutes against peterborough yesterday, where West Ham won 1-0. Looking at the player ratings on Sky Sport UK, he seemed to played quite well compared to others in the team.

Was injured and not in squad for Ipswich loss. Shame as was in a groove and serious comp for cb positions in tomkins and Faye. Sounds like may be out this weekend also.

the OS didn't say he was injured and suggested that he was just dropped, but they also describe Illunga as a defender, so what the f**k do they know?

"The manager made two enforced changes with Matt Taylor (calf) and Winston Reid (hamstring) missing out."

West Ham refuse to pay Winston Reid transfer due to bitter dispute with Fifa
 
West Ham United are refusing to pay transfer fees for three players they have bought from overseas clubs because of a bitter dispute with Fifa.

Can see what the club are trying to do, but it is unfair on FC Toomanyconsonants.
 
What I am annoyed by (and this is in no way relevant to Winston Reid, but I cannot be bothered finding the West Ham fred) is that we have to pay �40k a week until Jan for David Bentley to fcuk about in the gym at Spurs training ground.
 
Maybe we can take Dyer on loan from QPR as a replacement

Good minute-by-minute written commentary here, giving Reid good mention for his sterling defensive efforts- and he almost got in on the goal action with a header narrowly wide from a corner:
