Re: Summer 2023/24 Transfer Thread

have to admit, Maguire's being insulted by our 20 mil bid doesn't sit right with me. Dissing a club that actually want you as opposed to the abuse you receive from your current 'fans', knowing that you'll probably come in as the top earner at the club and will probably be named captain sets a prett...

Would transform the changing room and bring a massive level of professionalism with them. Would be huge huge signings in my opinion
All Maguire needs is a fresh start and a bit of respect.

Re: Books you are reading

Amor Towles - A Gentleman In Moscow An enjoyable 40-year story of a Russian aristocrat, under house arrest in the Hotel Metropol following the Russian revolution. There are some subtly magic realist touches that I really liked, and although the book is long and a bit uneven in terms of pace, it mix...

Re: West Ham United v Brighton and Hove Albion match thread

Hernandez is and always be the answer up front. If it isn't working, it's because of others not being up to his standard, not because he's the problem in the team. If he's lacking touches, it's because his team mates fail to find him, not because he can't make it stick. His movement in the final th...

No time team in tow, as far as we could tell.

He's a lot shorter than I expected, though.
Probably standing in a ditch. He usually is.

That website owngoalnigeria claims to have direct quotes from Iheanacho's agent: ” Talks with West Ham are very advanced I must confess, and barring any last minute hiccup he will end up joining them. If not them then any other team in England but not outside England “, he told Owngoalnigeria.com. ...

If you like Greene try "Stoner" by John Williams. A kind of American Greene. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Re: West Ham Utd vs Liverpool: match thread

It's nights like last night that will sell season tickets not all the transfer crap.
Let's hope for a few more nights/days like that next season.
We won't lose against Liverpool. Might not win but we won't lose.

Funnily enough, I was watching the last series and noticed a few banners in the background of shots, inviting people to come and watch - however, I realised that the filming had well and truly finished. I then had a look on the Wallace Collection website and there was an item about this year's film...

Yes, Sky Portrait Artist is excellent. I had thought you just needed to turn up but it had been so popular this year that they had to introduce wristbands for 4 separate hour long sessions. Wristbands were free and people passed them on to those waiting when they came out of the gallery. A great at...
