Hammers' fans frowned upon Lee Bowyer's first arrival at the club, due to his attitude towards racism, so we certainly weren't best pleased when he joined again in 2006. Bowyer first signed for West Ham in 2003, to help strengthen a team on the verge of relegation. Evidently, we didn't stay up that year, and Bowyer left after just 6 months. His second stint with the club was much more successful however, putting in some great performances and scoring some very important goals.
