I used club cash to buy my Freiburg ticket for tomorrow tonight.

Re: Need a new car

I have no interest in cars. It's simply a means for getting from A to B. We've leased our last two motors but with a third child round the corner, am looking this time to potentially buy outright or go down the PCP route. We currently have a Skoda Kodiaq but we are now looking at something that fits...

Re: Snoddy

Legend. Cult hero. Am I missing something? The bloke was a decent enough player who had some good performances and some not so good performances. To his credit - and really, it should be the least you expect of a footballer - he always put a shift in but any more than that in our clubs history? I do...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

But isn't that pretty standard for most teams outside those at the very top? To flip that, I can imagine Brighton fans saying that their style of football is successful against a certain way of playing and not so much against another. It seems that because it's largely attacking and therefore seen m...

Re: Other matches ~ w/e 2nd - 3rd Sept

I think something that is often overlooked in these types of discussions is your eleven best football players rarely translates to your best team. There is a highly valued set of 'skills' that pretty much all successful sides need which you cannot put a metric around or show as a statistic. That is ...

Re: Trophy Photo opportunity

I have a slot booked in for Tuesday but see we've got a wave of train strikes. Anyone know how I can change the date online or do I need to call the ticket office?

Re: What inspiring lessons have you taken from our European trophy success?

For me, it reignited that community, the coming together of a tribe from all different walks of life but with the same passion and dream. It took me back to my first games, on my old man's shoulders out of Upton Park station, feeling I was part of something truly special and that I belonged. That ha...

Re: Victory Celebration/Parade Whereabouts

Just on the way back home now. Followed the bus from start to finish. Incredible turnout and some great back and forth with the players: Kehrer and Rice being the main cheerleaders. A uniquely West Ham way to end what has been an amazing 24 hours.

Re: Victory Celebration/Parade Whereabouts

So how does this work then? Do we just line the route or follow the bus? Will the players lift the trophy at the town hall?

Sorry for the stupid question but I've never been to one of these before. :grin:

Sullivan is a proper twat. We've just won a European trophy and he's gone on the radio and said that? I ****ing hate that bloke with a passion. Exactly my thoughts as well. Just say no comment but as always, wants his piece of the limelight. "We offered him £200k a week". F*ck off mate wi...

Re: Flop of the season

Fofana was £75 mill.

Sterling around £50 mill.

You could probably make a Chelsea XI on its own.

I guess the question there is was it ownership and managerial turmoil that contributed to their decline or were the players they splashed out on just not that good.

Flop of the season

Some huge money was spent on players in 22-23 yet many of them have seemingly got away relatively scot-free despite delivering very little. Who would you class as worst signing of the season. Antony at Man Utd cost £85 mill but rarely looked to me like a player that was worth half that figure. Enzo ...

Lots of showboating in non dangerous positions that led to very little, lots of simple balls with the wrong weight of pass and a missed a one on one where he had a decade to choose what he wanted to do... ...on the flip side he battled like a Trojan, some magical touches and the willingness to get o...

Do we still have that clause where we're only allowed to use the ground a set number of times a season and if we go over that, we have to shell out?
