Jamie O’Hara absolutely slaughtered certain sections of West Ham United fans this afternoon.
West Ham have always been a target for talkSPORT chat-show host Jamie O’Hara, mostly through genuine banter though.
O’Hara has been highly critical of the Hammers in the past, and he backed us to struggle in Europe over the past two years.
He was then left with egg on his face after we reached the semi-final of the Europa League in 2022 and then won the Europa Conference League in 2023.
The 37-year-old’s affiliation with Tottenham is the main reason why he has beef with West Ham. He really does come out with some ridiculous things though – that’s surely something that all football fans can agree with!
However, he’s taken ‘banter’ to another level with his latest criticism of the Hammers, specifically our fans…
Jamie O’Hara rips into certain sections of West Ham fans
The former Premier League footballer is a well-known Spurs fan.
So it’s no surprise really that he always seems to find a way to rile up the Hammers fans.
This time though, he got rather personal in his criticism of us.
Jamie O’Hara had a very strong message for the West Ham fans today:
“When David Moyes walks out of that stadium for the last time, if they don’t clap him or give him a standing ovation, they’re a disgrace. West Ham fans don’t know how lucky they’ve been to have David Moyes in charge and to have got them where he’s got them. two semi-finals, one trophy. I’m telling you, if West Ham fans don’t give him the appreciation and respect he deserves, they’re not real West Ham fans. He deserves a lot of praise for where he’s took that football club.”
Now, David Moyes has done a fine job on the whole since taking over at the London Stadium for the second time back in December 2019.
He has helped transform this club, and taken us to another level entirely.
However, the big caveat is that we’ve actually regressed this season. There’s only so far that Moyes’s style of football can take you. We’ve found that out the hard way.
His stubbornness and ego got in the way of him leaving at the perfect time last summer. The 61-year-old has now outstayed his welcome, and that means that he probably won’t get the send-off that he deserves.
I’m just hoping that his exit is greeted with a certain level of respect from the Hammers fans. That said, if some fans choose not to send him off with applause, I wouldn’t blame them.
Jamie O’Hara was a bit harsh with his comments on the West Ham fans if you ask me.
