Curbishley: I will have to toughen up

West Ham boss Alan Curbishley admitted after Saturday's 1-0 win over Birmingham that he will have to "toughen up".

Any hopes for peace and quiet have ended as it looks like Kia Joorabchian and Sheffield United have got together to try and force another arbitration hearing into the Carlos Tevez affair.

Curbishley has also come under attack over his management and an alleged row with Craig Bellamy.

He said: "Since I've been here we seem to be on the back pages for the wrong reasons. Perhaps I just need a thicker skin.

"There seems to be an agenda out there because a lot of stuff is nonsense."
