// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Jack Collison is adamant that West Ham are heading in the right direction despite their lowly standing.[LNB] The Hammers currently sit second from bottom in the Premier League table, with only goal difference keeping them above Portsmouth.[LNB]They have experienced contrasting fortunes in their last two outings, with consecutive 2-2 draws taken from fixtures against Arsenal and Sunderland.[LNB]Gianfranco Zola's side showed commendable resilience to snatch a point against the Gunners, after falling 2-0 down, but were left disappointed on Saturday after allowing a two-goal lead to slip against the Black Cats.[LNB]Those results prove that West Ham are capable of competing against the best sides in the country, but they have done little to steer them clear of trouble.[LNB]Collison, though, feels that the Hammers can take heart from their recent outings and is confident that the club can return to winning ways in the not too distant future.[LNB]"We are definitely getting closer to stringing a few wins together," the Welsh midfielder said in the Evening Standard.[LNB]"There is a real desire in the squad and we are certain there are some good results just around the corner.[LNB]"The next two home games (against Aston Villa and Everton) could mean six points and that might change our season. The main plus is we are creating chances."[LNB]
