    West Ham United can confirm that Calum Davenport was being treated in hospital on Saturday afternoon after an incident late on Friday night.

    The 26-year-old defender and his mum both suffered stab wounds at home in Bedford. His mum is recovering while Calum underwent surgery this morning and his injuries were described as serious by doctors.

    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 ongoing police investigation, no further information will be released at this time.

    I'm wondering who was in the house at the time.

    Looks like a 19 year old lad was arrested, not named

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 831 ✭✭✭rotinaj


    25 year old arrested in Derby on suspicion of attempted murder.
    Pretty sick sh1t. Hope he pulls through


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,892 ✭✭✭Harpy


    this is awful.. hopefully himself and his mother make a full recovery.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,030 ✭✭✭angel01


    Absolutely awful. I hope that he will be okay and that he will be able to continue playing football.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Jesus, poor chap, he gets absolutely no luck, even when he played for Watford two seasons ago he seriously injured his neck and was out for a good while.

    Hope he has a speedy and full recovery.


  • Registered Users Posts: 203 ✭✭Miap


    Oh god thats horrible poor chap. Hope him and his mother make a full recovery!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Poor lad. I hope it doesn't end his career early.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭tbaymusicman


    Any more news on his condition


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,239 ✭✭✭KittyeeTrix


    Just reading a report in the Telegraph which says that sources close to Davenport have said that the perpatrators were people who were "not unknown" to the victims.
    It says the incident occured at 5am outside his mothers house and that Calum lives closeby with his wife and daughter.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/premierleague/westham/6073548/West-Ham-footballer-Calum-Davenport-seriously-injured-in-stabbing-attack.html

    Was he meant to be playing today for the Hammers??

    Unbelievable story - anyone have an update what’s behind it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,213 ✭✭✭✭therecklessone


    25 year old who was arrested is allegedly the boyfriend of Calum's sister. Family are not happy with the company she keeps, including her boyfriend, it lead on from that.

    Family including Calum, were obviously spot on

    Total scumbags. :mad:

    25 year old from Derby...Wasn't he in talks to go to Forest? Probably completely unrelated to that.

    Lousy to stab a football in both legs. Basically tried to end his career and kill him mother and ruin his life. I'd love nothing more than for him to make a quick recovery and get back on the pitch and for those lads to get exactly what they deserve.

    This guy is the scum of the earth, I hope he's stuck in a cell with a few West Ham fans.
    The sister must have something wrong with her mentally. Imagine stabbing your girlfriends mother and brother and the idiot still loves him?

    Seems like she has always kept choice company.
    ...the father of Cara's first child is a notorious armed robber serving life in prison. Neville Knight, 35, lived the high life in the Caribbean on loot from brutal armed raids...

    Even though I'd take it with a pinch of salt that she mouthed the words "I Love You" in court. But look at the other facts, 5 months pregnant with a black eye and sitting with the family of the guy that tried to kill (or seriously injure) her brother and mother. She's not exactly coming across as a nice person.
