It’s a city of two halves!

I’m glad my local team QPR are back in the Premiership but sad to see another London team, West Ham, leave.

It was so cruel the way West Ham got kicked out and in overtime too, losing their two goal lead in the dying seconds – ouch!

It’s all too easy to say they should of put out all the stops in January to get Martin O’Neil – let’s face it, he’s one of the most respected and astute managers in England.

I personally wouldn’t hesitate to give him the chance of being the manager of England after Capello - who I do respect.

He’s tough, astute but approachable and doesn’t suffer fools gladly – he reminds me of Tommy Docherty in the seventies – now that was a manager.

Then again O’Neil must of felt there were too few games in January to save this club – he’s got his reputation to think about!

But the owners and directors at West Ham must of decided to remove Mr A Grant at the end of the season when it would have been cheaper to drop him, due to their expensive purchase of a particular building that Tottenham Hotspur FC still want.

Now West Ham will have to start next season in the Championship, well there’s an irony.

It was two season’s ago they guaranteed the northern club Middlesbrough their place in the First Division.

But I was so glad to hear QPR won’t have any points removed over an earlier altercation.

The last time I had this sadness was when Millwall fell out of top league football just before the start of the Premiership league in 1991.

Congratulations to Manchester United and Manchester City for wining the league and the FA Cup!

United deserves it’s 19th win and City deserves to have some silverware after all the money its owners have spent, so well done to both.
