Does anyone know if they have deferred this or taken it out?

Dg now tweeting team news night before a match. Ok Cullen and Browne most likely on bench but still totally unprofessional. Just couldn’t imagine this at any other club but us.

I actually think they want us to get relegated.

I’d love to see a timeline of events showing all of the controversial / negative news stories released since the scum took over our football club. In the last few months alone we’ve hit the headlines on numerous occasions - just off the top of my head and not in any detail - Sporting Lisbon emails, drug testing fine, chief scout emails + sacking, Evra signing (after stating no more oldies will be brought in), numerous stadium stories, the accounts, fans being banned + reinstated, Brady’s columns, publicly undermining managers, social media updates (Gold, Sullivan sons, Ex etc) and now the march / meeting hooligans / Gold confronted after Swansea - I’m sure there are many more I’ve missed too.

Every West Ham story is a negative one under these lot. The fact that other fans probably know more about the ins and outs of our football club than their own is maddening. GSB are turning us into a joke club more and more everyday and just when you think it can’t get any worse, they seem to do their utmost to make it even worse. I hate the fact that other teams and fans are laughing at us. I don’t know about anyone else but I find the amount of scrutiny our club seems to be under on a regular basis both very demoralising and draining.

I would love to go for even just one month without seeing something that belittles our amazing club any further. Surely this isn’t too much to ask for? Probably, considering how media / fame hungry the owners and their entourage are. When the results are poor and it’s not going your way on the pitch, the last thing the fans, players and the manager needs to hear is how badly the club is failing off of it.

GSB, if you’re not going to leave our club then SHUT UP and stop dragging us through the mud.

Incredible some people still fall for David Gold, he and Sullivan come as a pair, it is the classic "good cop" "bad cop" trick.

Everything that comes out of the club is stage-managed bull**it except when Sullivan gets angry and then it is just bull**it which Lady Brady doesn't get a chance to stage manage and spin.

Even Gold's autobiography, which he freely makes available on his website, is such a cliched East End rags to riches story that anyone with any degree of scepticism would question whether it is true.

I think he has been such a plausible liar for years. He actually struggles to understand what the truth is. Total con merchant.

It's taken a while to form part of a very vocal minority but for years I knew what this man is. I think its only a matter of time before he is totally exposed by the media.

Will be devastating for the club though.

The catch 22 here is the more we do to get rid of these shysters the more we make the club an unattractive proposition for others..........

Not if the hassle and grief makes them a motivated seller and they reduce their asking price.

So £25m is repayable in the summer. Explains the Ayew sale in January. He is worth what, the difference in prize money between finishing 10th (what they probably budgeted for) and finishing 17th which is probably the current aim?

I must admit to being completely naive in yesteryear about these charlatans. Not to the degree that I believed they were buying us out of love for the club but I did feel they would strike a balance between running a tight ship, investing in the team whilst also improving their personal wealth. Fair enough.

What is evident now however is their goal all along was just to fleece the club, ravage at it like vultures until the last pickings are gone. That became evident to me even more so when I was enlightened to the fact that they tried to do their stadium trick twice previously at Brum, failing both times. Their plan is simple and obvious:

- Take over club riddled with debt that can be sustained by a strong fan base
- has to have opportunity to move to rented / government funded stadium
- make the move, make a sh** load of money sell up and move on

They couldn’t careless about fit for purpose stadium or fan experience or anything other than increasing their net wealth. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask!

The sooner they are gone the better, I just hope there is enough West Ham left to rebuild.

I'm looking forward to all the Bobby Moore stuff we were promised before the game today, presumably their attempt to stop people marching today. I suspect there won't be any now the march is off. Another pack of lies?

if they were ' real fans ' in every sense of the word , they'd of charged the club 1% tops on any loans .

its what i wouldve done in the same situation had i of been them ., i it had been me i'd probably of written off the loan too .

real fans dont buy football clubs to make money , end of
