West Ham fans fume as club confirm signing of their former bogeyman who mocked their Conference League triumph

West Ham announced a new singing on Saturday and it hasn't gone down well with some sections of their fanbase.

The club announced that striker Callum Wilson has agreed a one-year deal after his contract at Newcastle expired.

The 33-year-old endured an injury-ridden campaign at Newcastle last season, starting just two Premier League games and scoring one goal in all competitions.

But he has been more prolific in the past with 49 goals in 130 games for the Magpies and 67 in 187 appearances for Bournemouth prior to that.

He's scored 12 goals in 16 games against the Hammers, more than he has against any other club, earning a reputation as somewhat of a bogeyman.
