West Ham United have made a disappointing start to the Premier League season.

Former Liverpool and Nottingham Forest striker Stan Collymore has outlined in The Mirror what he finds fascinating about West Ham United co-owners David Sullivan and David Gold.

Collymore has claimed that there is no middle ground for Sullivan and Gold.

“What’s fascinating about Sullivan and Gold, is that there doesn’t ever seem to be any middle ground,” Collymore wrote in The Mirror.

“At times they are very professional. At other times West Ham is a comedy club. There’s no in-between.”

Gold and Sullivan have been good for West Ham over the past few years, and they genuinely want to enhance the reputation and pedigree of the club.

There can be no doubt that the West Ham co-owners want to take the club to the next level, and that they have the Hammers’ best interest at heart.

The problem is that West Ham’s recruitment in recent years have not been great. Signings such as Enner Valencia, Marouane Chamakh (loan) and Alvaro Arbeloa have not worked.

The Hammers have made a disappointing start to the 2017-18 Premier League campaign and have lost all three of league games so far.
