Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath

I think there will be a general election. The noise coming out of this week’s negotiations is dire. May is hamstrung by a tiny majority government. She is trying to appease too many opposing and contradictory positions. To get something in front of the EU as a position she has to appease both hardli...

Re: Summer Transfer Window 2018- 39 days remaining

We aren’t going to be signing anyone for fees close to £40million. Forget it.

I’m hoping the new guy working for Pellegrini is already busy on other options.

Re: David Moyes: should he stay or should he go? [POLL]

It won’t be Rafa. He will want too much control, Newcastle are moving in the right direction under him and Ashley seems to have largely shut up. It won’t be Pelligrini. Why would he? In fact it won’t be any manager who is close to being at the top of their profession. Our owners have a reputation in...

Re: David Moyes: should he stay or should he go? [POLL]

I was extremely anti Moyes when he came in. I saw him as a cheap yes man for the board & thought he was just as desperate as they were. He seems to have done a pretty good job to be fair. We’ve properly smashed up a couple of teams at home under him. They squad is definitely fitter, playing with...

Re: Gold and Sullivan ???

Until they’ve ****ed off it’s a sad thing to say but defeat will always be a cloud with a silver lining because it hurts those ***** and makes them look the amateur asset strippers they are. I’ve never felt like that about West Ham. But it doesn’t feel like West Ham anymore really and I don’t believ...

Re: Was Noble right to do what he did? [POLL]

I don’t believe so.

But in the circumstances it’s difficult to judge.

He lost his cool. He’s human, frustrated & acting in the heat of the moment.

I think we can cut him a little slack.

Re: West Ham Utd v Burnley: match thread

Am I missing something with all these "fans" ringing up the radio shows saying we lost/or caused us to lose the game because of people invading the pitch? Didn't they come onto the pitch after we had gone 2-0 down and the game lost? Not the other way around. :eh: These are the silly *****...

Re: West Ham Utd v Burnley: match thread

So what West Ham did you know from the past that resorted to bringing it down along with the owners? I can’t quite remember that West Ham? I do remember fans protesting Terry Brown but in the stands. Because at least in the stands you can make a difference. The only difference you are making on the...

Re: West Ham Utd v Burnley: match thread

Well I hope that ends well for you and the other 10,000 fans. Very rational. It’s not like we won’t pick up fines and point deductions for that, eh? So more debt and less fans paying to go watch us. That’s the spirit! Less fans equals less money and we will then not have enough to make profit and b...

Re: West Ham Utd v Burnley: match thread

I couldn’t be happier that our supporters who decided to follow the club to the London stadium have finally shown the owners what they think of them. For me, the club I grew up and loved died two years ago. I won’t lie, a big part of me is happy to see that a part of the club I remember still exists...

Re: West Ham Utd v Burnley: match thread

With any luck they’ll burn the ****ing stadium to the ground today.

Joe Hart being in our squad and starting today sums up our club and why we deserve to get relegated.

Show pony of a keeper who is vastly overrated and vastly overpaid.

Was with you right up to this point. Either you have phrased it badly or you are suggesting all people who still support West Ham deserve what they are getting. I hope not. No absolutely not. Just those who seem hell bent on mindlessly backing our saviours. If you go on twitter and places like that...

Re: Gold and Sullivan ???

They really do detest the fanbase don't they. The game is largely up. We’re at a point where a large percentage of what I would call our traditional supporter base knows what they are all about. The accounts have been released. We all know they pulled a fast one by moving stadiums. We’re looking at...

Re: Gold and Sullivan ???

The only good thing about relegation is that it hurts these ***** pockets. Their 7% & 4% interest on loans is worth **** all if we go bust. They’ll never see it in full. I’d be interested to know how much in interest we pay to them both every year and are they currently taking it out annually or...

Re: Gold and Sullivan ???

I suspect the end is nigh for them in football. They have burnt too many bridges in football and the business side of things has moved on. All of them will not work in any official capacity in football again after West Ham. All business is based on trust and I’m not sure many people in the footballi...

Re: Gold and Sullivan ???

If they we’re happy with just staying in the PL they shouldn’t have done the move unless it was to sell onto someone who could fund the keeping of 55,000+ bums on seats. Luckily we’ve got a transfer window coming up to see if anything has changed. This is the rub. They have totally destroyed our cl...
