West Ham Online

Don’t shoot the messenger as still TBC. Supposedly Antonio has had a crash in his Ferrari in Loughton, sounds fairly bad

Suspect as with Ogbonna the club might give him a year's extension to support him through recovery on a slightly lower wage...just a hunch though.

Wouldn't be opposed to that...he's done plenty for the club, even if seemingly a bit of a billy big time since he went up top.

Anything that helps him get over this disaster the club should do all they can to help.

 

Contract was up in his final year this season, so would imagine the Club 'should' pay up the rest of this half a season to him out of good faith at 35yo come the end of it. Then go and enjoy the rest of your retirement with your kids, Mic and count your lucky stars it wasn't a lot worse. 

Probably alone in this opinion but for a while I've thought I'd like to see Antonio in coaching/managing. Something about his temperament I really like and think he could inspire young Footballers in the game. I actually think he's more switched on Football wise than some give him credit for. Maybe a path he'd like to take should the recovery go well but obviously no time soon.

His general recovery is all that matters. Unlikely to play again, sure, but he has been an excellent signing for us and gave us nine years of unrelenting energy, strength, speed and goals. Proper West Ham.

Hope his recovery goes as well as it can.

Agree 100% Massive.   Its about recovery for the rest of his life not football thats a low priority now at his age etc

Neither things someone comes back from easily even when young.

Isn't Collyrob an IRA fanboy? The human consequences of things don't really concern them too much, so you'll have to excuse him.

Moyes would still pick him ahead of Scamacca, it’s a flesh wound son you’ll be fine for Monday.

Things won’t be the same without Antonio.

It’s 40mph on that road but used to be national speed limit. Pretty annoying when it’s a clear road tbh but like others have said the deer can take you by surprise. 

Didn’t know Sullivan lived down there and so close to me. Needs a visit like Shearer got from the Sunderland fans the slag

Given the state of the car and that he was air lifted to hospital it would be mad if he has escaped fairly unscathed. Suspect the next update will tell us more.

To be fair to the Deers, they probably think the same about us driving cars around their manor. Majestic animals when you suddenly see them bowling by. 

Someone close to me driving on Friday night on a dual carriageway almost got taken out by a lorry missing her by a cats whisker. Apparently the lorry was nudged by the wind and forced into her lane nearly getting crushed into the central reservation. 

Stay safe out there, the weather's a right cսnt at the moment and not to be underestimated. 

Club legend.

Hopefully better news to come today.

I suppose once it's confirmed he's in the clear and it's just about the recovery, attention will turn to if and when he will be back available? Suspect that would be a pointless exercise at this early stage, but would be a real shame if he's finished due to this.

Always remembered Laurie Cunningham died in a car accident on a notorious road in Malaga. It was know as the road of death IIRC.

The Deers are fuckers round there, but usually early in the morning they are more dangerous. Had a few close encounters and know people who’ve gone into them. Let’s hope he makes a full recovery. Iffy road to drive if you don’t know it well. Sullivan’s house is on it, so maybe that’s where he was going?

I wonder if he swerved to miss a dear.. Any signs of skid marks on the road ? 

Surface of the road looks damp so possibly no skid marks. No mention of a deer carcass in the vicinity.

Just hope he wasn't texting on his mobile, lost it and bounced off a tree.
