Re: Trevor Brooking's farewell

you're right coffee..
'Lampard started for the youth team of West Ham United in 1964. At club level, he won two FA Cups with West Ham, in 1975 and 1980, and the old second division title in 1981. By the time he left the club on a free transfer at the end of the 1984–85 season, Lampard had played 660 games, scored 22 goals
He moved to Southend United for the 1985–1986 season, then managed by another ex-West Ham star Bobby Moore, and made 38 appearances for the Essex club before deciding to retire.'
the you tube video is worth a watch..great to see our old ground ..camera footage from ground level too that gives you the perfect angle to see brooking glide past players

I would be surprised if he really cared for West Ham anymore
Frank Lampard Snr is a cold hearted, hard and ruthless cunt who has been extremely successful away from football.
He was a great player and good servant to West Ham, there was a problem or two that soured the relationship, I’m sure he would have liked to be different if it could have been.
It wasn't and isn’t and he’s moved on.

Unlike his son, I don't recall Frank senior ever saying bad things about the club after his departure with Redknapp in 2001. He was a thoroughly professional player who suffered an early leg break, then a bad injury in the Cup Winners Cup final in1976. One of the best full backs West Ham ever had as well in my opinion.
Yes he does deserve the respect of West Ham fans without a doubt. I think junior took umbrage when his father lost his job through no fault of his own.

Brooking was one of the best I have ever seen.....and had the best minder in Bonzo. Pop Robson was one of the best finishers I have ever seen ( what would he be worth in todays market? ) made it look so easy and Trev laid on bucket loads for him. It defies logic that both Bonzo and Pop never played for England . Devo was the type of player that got the fans excited with those scintilating runs two good feet, must have been a nightmare for defenders not knowing which way he would go.
Many happy days watching those four!

i am the only one of here who played a 1 two with the great man and put the ball in the top corner during a training session laid on by our school for winning the league back in the day...
always happy to remind you all of that whenever the great man is mentioned
also, does Lampard snr deserve the same level of respect/a stand/toilet named after him? did he go on to play for anyone else?

Re: Trevor Brooking's farewell

biggest compliment I can give to both trev & dev is they made the game look easy, in the modern era where players like them are protected they'd both be worth over £100m

Good quality version of the brooking documentary, complete with cheesy 80s music and video effects.

Someone needs to sit Declan Rice down in front of this video and say ‘this could be you son’.

Makes me laugh how people rave about Payet and Anderson, flash in the pan Johnnie's compared to Trev and Dev.
I was lucky to see them both during their great years home and away, some of my best ever football memories.
This video proved you can be a superstar footballer and a gent at the same time, you don't have to be a blingy cunt

That was fantastic.
Last time I saw Trev play was against QPR a few weeks before the end of the season and he was the best player on the pitch. What a great player and a wonderful person.

Thanks for putting that up FC.
It brought back some fond memories.
To think we won our first 5 frames that season and then only won once in our last 12 games.

Different and brilliant in every way Brooking and Bonds. Although if I must choose Hadleigh just nicks it for me.

I don't think you can compare Brooking with Bonds, such different qualities they possessed. They are both heroes from that era.
Between them they made nearly 1,200 appearances for us. Will that ever happen again?
That's what I miss most. A team that goes through thick and thin but mostly stays together.
