I was a guest at the West Ham Everton match yesterday courtesy of one of WHU''s sponsors, and had lunch with Tony Cottee beforehand, who does a lot of corporate glad-handing for the Hammers nowadays. Asked him how Deano was and he said: "I think he''s finished to be honest. His ankle won''t heal." ''Fraid that''s it for Deano, which whatever you think of him leaving us, is a shame for the game to lose such a fine player.
