Kevin Nolan's move from Newcastle to West Ham is a strange one, does he lack ambition? Or is he doing it to help out an old friend?
This week saw Kevin Nolan move from Newcastle United to West Ham United in a three million pound transfer, this is great business for West Ham, I’m sure many of their fans will be delighted, but I’m pretty sure they’ll be just as confused as every other football fan in the country is as to why Nolan wanted the transfer. Kevin Nolan had helped Newcastle through the toughest stage of their recent history, the club were relegated to the Championship, they were in financial turmoil, there was a real possibility that the club could go bust and they had a chairman that nobody liked. Yet Kevin Nolan stuck with Newcastle and managed to help them get promoted, and then comfortably help Newcastle stay in the Premier League the following season, finishing as their top goal scorer with 12 goals from midfield.
