the season:
"This seems to be the most sensible solution to preserve the
continuity that Glenn and his back-room team have put into
place," Brooking told the official West Ham website.
"We aim to keep the momentum going that everyone has
achieved over the last eight matches when 15 points have
been gained."
The West Ham board confirmed in a statement that assistant
manager Paul Goddard and coach Roger Cross will continue to
look after matters on the training pitch.
"All of the existing coaching staff will remain in their
current positions, and are fully supportive of both this
temporary appointment and the club's determination to finish
the season above the relegation zone," the statement read.
