West Ham United fans have hailed defender James Collins on his birthday.
The Hammers’ official Twitter account wished the defender many happy returns on Friday as he turned 36.
Collins spent four years in east London between 2005 and 2009 and returned in 2012, staying at the club until 2018, when he left to join Ipswich Town.
He is currently without a club but, in total, he made 214 appearances for the Irons at centre-back, scoring an impressive nine goals.
And a number of fans have taken to Twitter to hail the Welshman, who also won 50 caps for his country throughout his career.
