    Celebrity West Ham fans and Hibs

    Starting to notice a pattern here.

    James Corden, Russell Brand, Lennox Lewis and Andy Murray; all publically professed West Ham fans, all having publically praised Hibs.

    Obviously the latter is slightly different, Andy being a boyhood fan, but it's all undeniably a bit weird. It's not like West Ham have that many celebrity fans, is it?

    I think Andy Murray supports Arsenal.

    Have to say out the teams in London I watched (albeit the late 90s) it was the Hammers (v Shearer and Sutton’s Blackburn) that reminded me most of the Hibs. Saw Klinnsmans Spurs v QPR, the awesome Arsenal side in Europe and V Sheffield Wed, and Brentford versus Waddle’s Barnsley. And Terry Hrulocks Fulham! Didn’t catch Chelsea or

    My wife is a Spurs fan, but before I met her (a very long time ago), I used to go to West Ham games with some mates at University close to their old stadium in the days of Johnny Lyle. She has yet to realize I secretly back them in London derby games and she thinks Spurs are my London team.

    Not sure I would call him a poster - all he does is post those wee thingeys when Deeks or Leigh is mentioned........

    I was at the first tie in the 1986 FA Cup against Man Utd where it ended in a 1.1 draw. West Ham won 2 nil at Old Trafford in the replay.

    I lived in Clerkenwell then and got on the tube at the Barbican to go to the games. We stood behind one of the goals with the main stand on our right.

    You are a celebrity!
