Never mind the buzz stops
West Ham striker attacked by bees… And a swarm welcome to Guillermo Franco, who played in Mexico's 4-1 won against El Salvador. The match was for halted for ten minutes after a swarm of bees took up residence in the El Salvador goal. Amazingly he avoided injury, almost a shame as it would have ranked right up there in the annals of bizarre Hammers injuries with Devonshire Flu and Steve Lomas injuring himself walking round Disneyland... Franco must pray we don't get drawn against the Bees or the Hornets in the Cup... Jest beehive, will ya.

OH so that's why he doesn't play for us but for some reason he does for Mexico. Because of the bee's....
Assume he wasn't match fit when he joined us, but as you say, odd he's able to play international football! Let's hope he's availablr for Stoke, and Dr Ges has plenty of Wasp-Eze...
Maybe we can get a few hives worth in to help him train? A couple of weeks running away from swarms on a daily basis and he'll be fully match fit in no time at all.
