Re: Summer 2025 Transfers

I’ve washed my mouth out with soap, been through a sheep dip and booked to see the quack, but think I want Spurs to beat Man U in the Europa. It will damage Ratcliffe’s great train robbery more than Mr Burns over at N17. A billion quid in debt, loads of overpaid players with their slippers on, a hig...

Re: KKUMB AWARDS XXVIII: Goal of the Season

Our goal against Villa in the Cup was excellent.

Oh for that Summerville / Kudus combo.

Re: ✍️ Welcome to West Ham Utd Graham Potter

Regardless of our own views, it’s interesting to consider what the board would do right now had Potter only been given the until-the-end-of-the-season contract they wanted to give him.

I think they’d go shopping yet again.

Re: ✍️ Welcome to West Ham Utd Graham Potter

Not sure Fullkrug is fit enough to start. I’m not itk, but he looks to have slowed since his purple 2 games. Hardly surprising we perked up when the game had slowed, but the point being made was that Potter should’ve started with 4 players we have previously started with to crap effect. I’m a bit wo...

That’s because he’s doing too much. Need someone to his right and feeding him imo.

No he’s not. None of those 4 deserved to start. Doubt any will be here next season and one way or another they have had poor seasons.

Re: ✍️ Welcome to West Ham Utd Graham Potter

I didn’t know who Julien Laurens was so looked him up online. Apparently he is ‘one of the most influential football journalists on Twitter,’ so that tells you he’s a twat before you begin. If Monsieur Laurens had been watching, then you’d know why Potter hadn’t played Paqueta, Soler or Ferguson fro...

Re: ✍ Welcome, Jarrod Bowen

Best striker we’ve had in a generation. Indeed, he is the closest thing to Tony Cottee since TC.

Should be building around him at inside right. That would be my starting point if I was Potter. He’s too wide and too deep.

The Boleyn pub, the statue and Our Lady of Compassion church is where the ghosts live. Those are still definitely worth visiting.

He amplified the view that Moyes was holding us back by frustrating Steidten, rather than the other way around.
