Green: West Ham don't care about me

The England stopper was voted the Hammers' player of the year for 2007-08 after featuring in every minute of their Barclays Premier League campaign, and was hopeful of a new deal to bring him in line with the Londoners' top stars.
"No matter what the figures are in the workplace in terms of wages, you either feel a valued member of your staff or you don't," he told The Sun. "At the moment, I don't and clearly West Ham don't care about me."
He added: "If you put the strongest West Ham XI out, I'd be the lowest earner by a long, long way. I do not even want to be close to the top earner at the club -- I don't care about that. I would just like some parity."
He added: "Generally, the situation here leaves a question mark whether the club are rewarding success and you end up questioning yourself and questioning your future."
