The Top FIVE Hammers Heart-throbs

Anything David Beckham and Freddie Ljunberg can do in underpants on billboards, these Hammers can do better…

1. James Tomkins – In my dad’s words, he’s got a ‘smart haircut’ and that’s all he’s worried about. I’m going to sound like a giggly little schoolgirl with a crush now, and probably someone who only cares about the footballers’ looks rather than the football itself, but I just LOVE James Tomkins. He’s got the chiselled face, the huge grin and obviously a great tackle (sorry, couldn’t resist!). He’s the first Hammer I’ve ever fancied and I shall be pretty gutted if he ever leaves West Ham.

2. Stacey Little – Of course, there had to be a lady for the men reading this! Stacey received the West Ham Ladies Player of the Year award for last season, and the blonde bombshell is sure to have gained plenty of male fans since joining the Hammers in 2010. 24 year old Stacey is also available on twitter at @Staceylittle. If you want to *ahem* admire Little and the rest of the ladies team, you can visit their website at http://www.clubwebsite.co.uk/westhamunitedladiesfc/Home

3. Dani – Male Model Dani Carvalho joined the Hammers in January 1996, but only stayed for 9 games after making poor judgements. He was sacked after being spotted in a nightclub, but he was definitely one of the best looking players that West Ham have ever had to offer. He even inspired the great quote of “Dani is so good-looking I don’t know whether to play him or fuck him” from Harry Redknapp.

 

 

4. Harry Redknapp – Redknapp’s been included on my dad’s say so. Apparently, when he first played for the Hammers, women used to pitch invade to get close to him as he took corners. Can anyone verify this rumour? Obviously Harry the wheeler dealer is a whole world away from the one that was a Hammers favourite, but he seems to have been a heart-throb in his day. I’d really appreciate some clarification on this rumour please!

5. Iain Dowie – I personally don’t think this needs any explanation. That bald head, the expressive face… What’s not to love about Mr. Dowie? His ‘bouncebackability’ and enthusiasm make him the winner of the wooden spoon award in this contest. He’s even got an engineering degree to woo the ladies with. Plus his goals helped West Ham go up in 1991, which more than makes up for the fact that, well, he’s not really meant to be in this list.
