We asked every PickOurTeam writer to give their honest opinions on how their team fared this season. Here are the views of West Ham writer Gavin Conway:

Season in Summary: Solid first season back in top flight, fantastic home form, poor away but never in real danger of relegation.

Top Three Players: Winston Reid, Mohamed Diame, Andy…

One thing certain to happen this summer is Wilfried Bony leaving Vitesse, but his destination still remains up in the air, with a host of Premier League clubs interested in his services.

The Ivorian, who should finish as the Eredivisie¹s top goal scorer this season, in recent weeks has been linked with West Ham, who allegedly…

I'm rarely one to celebrate before the final whistle but I feel fairly confident that Premier League safety has already been guaranteed, despite, at time of writing, the mathematics still not quite confirming our top-flight status. It's a fantastic achievement for West Ham United but there is a major blot on our copy book which…

With victory over Wigan securing our Premier League status, West Ham fans can thoroughly enjoy the rest of the season, even if it is only four games. Two very winnable home games are contrasted by a couple of difficult away fixtures, however there is no reason not to aim high as the season draws to a close.

Even though survival…

United clinched the title, Spurs gave new life to their bid for fourth place, QPR are as good as down after a home loss to Stoke while Liverpool came back twice, controversially, to draw 2-2 with Chelsea. It was another highly dramatic weekend of Premier League action, but who made it into the PickOurTeam Team…

Manchester United got back to winning ways, Arsenal got out of jail and QPR lost without a whimper on a weekend where things got very tense at both ends of the table. Chelsea and Spurs are level on points in the race for fourth spot while Stoke's defeat to Manchester United plunges them into the…

We're nearing the end of the season and once the dust has settled on the various ups and downs that May brings, attention will shift to which players will going, and staying, where next term.

As far as West Ham are concerned, there are two major issues to resolve: firstly, whether Mohamed Diame's eye can be drawn away from…

11 April 2013
 
There was late drama in the three big games of the weekend, as Wigan's Shaun Maloney gave Harry Redknapp 'the worst moment' of his 45-year career with a late equaliser at QPR; Gylfi Sigurdsson rescued a point for Spurs in a 2-2 draw with Everton; and Sergio Aguero gave Manchester City a win at rivals…

Andy Carroll has been told he still has a future at Liverpool, but only if he accepts that he will not be a regular starter for the team. PickourTeam’s intrepid reporter Iain Macintosh sat in on Liverpool coach Brendan Rodgers breaking the news to the on-loan West Ham striker.

BRENDAN RODGERS: Welcome back to Anfield, Andy!…

A sold win at the top for Manchester United, which led to a managerial change at Sunderland, and Manchester City's best performance of the season were the stories at the top of the table while at the bottom, Southampton moved clear of the drop with a home win over Chelsea, while Wigan beat Norwich to…
2 April 2013
 

Late on Saturday reports emerged from the Netherlands, via renowned publication Voetbal International, Vitesse and West Ham United were on the verge of agreeing the transfer of Ivorian striker Wilfried Bony.

However, less than twelve hours later, club technical director (and one-time journalist familiar with the 'transfer business') Ted van Leeuwen told local newspaper de Gelderlander…

It is a tradition and legacy that West Ham fans are probably most proud of. Our ever-present academy has produced some of the most notable footballers in the modern English game, as well as the odd World Cup winner too. The current first team squad also includes some players who have been at the club…
22 March 2013
 
Yes that's right, yet another article about West Ham's proposed move to the Olympic Stadium. Even though David Gold believes an agreement will be signed this weekend, a judicial review launched by Leyton Orient owner Barry Hearn is likely to delay proceedings once more, adding to the lengthy timeline of appeals and criticism.

Should the decision…

At risk of trotting out one of a plethora of clichés to describe the peculiarities of lapsed time, it's interesting to note how things have changed for the three clubs promoted from the Championship over the past 10 months, their fortunes being thrust into sharp focus with the sacking of Brian McDermott.

I remember watching Reading's title celebrations, players being…

12 March 2013
 
A few things became apparent following the victory at Stoke over the weekend. While some of our players are not exactly world-beaters, they are still more than capable of putting a shift in and getting a result.

Despite our decidedly wobbly defence over the past couple of months, we are still capable of keeping a clean sheet. In all…

The biggest result of the weekend saw QPR close the gap at the foot of the table with a crucial away win at Southampton while Gareth Bale was on target again for Spurs in their 2-1 derby win over Arsenal. There were wins for all the teams in the top four, while Everton and Liverpool…
5 March 2013
 
There was drama at the top and bottom in this round of matches, as Chelsea missed a penalty at Manchester City, Arsenal needed a late winner to get past Aston Villa, and Gareth Bale inspired Spurs to a dramatic win at West Ham. Meanwhile, Wigan took a big step to safety with a 3-0 win…

As Sam Allardyce bounced up and down on the touchline with his coaching staff, a look of sheer glee on his face, after Modibo Maiga scored West Ham's third goal in their emphatic victory over Chelsea on 1 December, it looked he had finally achieved acceptance at Upton Park.

Spirits were understandably high. Back in the…

21 February 2013
 
With no game last weekend after being knocked out of the FA Cup and our next opponents competing in Europe this week, now is the perfect opportunity to take a step back and contemplate our current position without knee-jerking about recent results.

Obviously the defeat against Aston Villa was disappointing, not so much the result, but…

20 February 2013
 
If you had said to me at the start of the season, that come mid-February we would be sitting in 11th place in the table, seven points clear of the relegation zone, I would have been very happy indeed. However, our current run of form combined with a horror run of fixtures coming up, provides…
