Just imagine the scenario – the final day of the campaign is over, and West Ham United have finished a point adrift of 17th spot, sentencing themselves to a year, at least, in the Championship. The cost of relegation varies, but we’ll just put it at roughly £30m lost in television and other endorsement deals. This one point that they’ve failed to pick up could have been earned during the course of the thirty-eight games that spread over the ten-month long season. Definitely. Only… they could very well have been two better off had Frédéric Piquionne not been ludicrously sent off for celebrating an 85th minute goal in their match against Everton a few weeks ago.
