West Ham chairman Gudmundsson fed-up with injuries

West Ham United chairman Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson is fed-up with the horror injury list they've suffered this season.

Gudmundsson and boss Alan Curbishley have ordered the inquiry as defender Anton Ferdinand joined their astonishing sicklist at Bolton on Saturday.

Every aspect of training and treatment will be scrutinised in a bid to halt the crisis which has ravaged the squad.

Gudmundsson is growing fed-up of the catalogue of injuries and has demanded a full report by the end of the campaign.

A West Ham spokesman said: "Some of the injuries have been unavoidable. But the board and manager want to make sure the club does not have a repeat next season. Every avenue will be explored."

Craig Bellamy, Matt Upson, Scott Parker, Julian Faubert, Danny Gabbidon, Freddie Ljungberg and now Ferdinand have all been hit by long-term injuries.
