West Ham United footballer Calum Davenport is having surgery on both legs after he and his mother were stabbed, his spokesman has said. Mr Davenport, 26, and his mother are both in a serious condition after being stabbed at their home in Bedford.
Police said the attack happened late on Friday. West Ham said its thoughts were with the player and his family.
The defender and former England under-21 joined West Ham from Tottenham for £3m in 2007.
He had a spell on loan for Sunderland last season and also played for Coventry City.
A West Ham spokesman said: "The club's medical team are in contact with hospital staff.
"The thoughts of everyone at West Ham are with Calum and his family and, due to the on-going investigation, no further information will be released."

Stabbed in the legs, sounds fishy to me. Sounds like he has upset someone who wants to end his career, gambling or drugs debt spring to mind.

I wish him and his mother well.

yeah , been having a read up on it - apparently (according to rambling idiots who have the ability to blog / write on message forums - so take with a pinch of salt ) was that reports that he died but was resuscitated.

but agree with the Eagle on this - bit suspect that someone who go for a pro footballers legs

Does seem strange to stab someone in the leg, normally Italians do that

Probably a bit early to jump to conclusions like that.

He also received wounds to his neck and groin in what appears to be a frenzied attack. I suspect that the fact that received injuries to his legs makes a nice little hook since he is a footballer.

There are unconfirmed reports that he was intervening in an argument between a member of his family and one of the accused.

As a Hammer supporter as well as a Seagull, it does not sound good for Calum's career

So they've arrested someone whose name is WORRELL? f*** me, I'd love to be on the jury in that one. Would you even need to listen to the evidence before deciding he's guilty?

why?

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

His name is Worrell = he must be a twat. The more Worrell's in prison the better as far as I'm concerned.

why?

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

How many decent people do you know called Worrell?

point taken!
