West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce wants warm welcome for former players

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce wants the Upton Park faithful to give their old boys a warm welcome against Queens Park Rangers.

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce hopes that the Upton Park faithful give the returning Hammers players a warm reception on Sunday.

Allardyce believes that Rob Green, Rio Ferdinand and Bobby Zamora, who all return to their old club with Queens Park Rangers, all did enough for the East Londoners to warrant a gentle welcome.

Allardyce told reporters: "I think they should get a warm reception as all three of them were here for a considerable amount of time - they weren't short-term stays.

"We would like them to be very miserable at the end of the game though. The year I had Robert when he helped us get back in to the Premier League, he was a great professional, and we all know about Rio."

West Ham currently sit in 13th in the Premier League, while QPR are 18th with just one win so far this season.
