Smoke And Mirrors Irons Transfer Deja Vu

Yesterday we alluded to the fact that there are alarming similarities between this season and the seasons before regarding Hammers bidding low for 'unattainable' players for a protracted period of time before the owners turn round and say "We tried our best but couldn't get the deal over the line". At risk of sounding like a broken record, this 'tale' definitely strikes a chord of Deja vu among fans who have heard it all before, so the NEWS that the club have failed with their third bid for Burnley's James Tarkowski will come as no surprise to anyone who knows the club's recruitment history.

All this of course helps 'muddy the water' with regards to other aspects that will have a lasting effect on what has become a beleaguered club, transfer talk and take over talk are meat and drink to the 'Sultans of Spin', the more plates they have up in the air the harder it is to get any real information other than that which has been carefully spoon fed to the media, particularly their pets, Talkshite Radio and Claret and Not True!

There is truth in the take over rumours although the details, as one would imagine, are not in the public domain and why would they be? So any 'information' currently doing the rounds is purely here say and merely conjecture on behalf of the author depending on what their preferences are, unfortunately the smoke' created by the take over rumours helps obscure the truly awful state of affairs at the club with infighting beginning to filter through.

There is an almost surreal atmosphere surrounding West Ham United at the moment, with supporters willing a deal would get done yesterday! That's not going to happen, but what will happen is that the club are about to embark on a sequence of six tricky Barclays PREMIER LEAGUE FIXTURES with a completely imbalanced squad, that is fact not fiction, and while fans are dreaming of a Sugo Free Christmas, the grim reality is that the only fare on offer over the festive period is more than likely going to be 'bare bones' and another relegation scrap, unless 'realistic' transfer targets arrive within the next fortnight.

Smoke and mirrors from the owners, you betcha! - Ed

On the money Nev !The rise of the 'itks' during the Cons tenure is rather remarkable. Yes Claret and Spew are the Pravada ,but there are those who gently side with the fans, but secretly would love to be the Cons favourite pet .As a result fans don't question it, when they put it out there that Moyes is "dithering Dave ".A murky world is the world of the 'itks'.But we shall overcome ,West Ham will be free !We are more than a football Club, we're a way of life !

I've never known so many "in the knows" at the club spouting their dribble since the Dildos and Lady Butplug took over. It's like a Jeffing soap opera!!!!

Any player worth his salt would not touch us with a barge pole right now and if Rice drops the bombshell and puts in a transfer request then the final nail will be driven into the coffin.The next level we were promised well clearly that was a lie one among many how much longer must we put up with this odious unholy trio.

The question is why would this guy even want to leave Burnley?

I think we should give them the benefit of the doubt. They've saved us from ourselves countless times.
We'll look back one day, proud that PM Brady was once associated with our club. There's a strong female role model we should all aspire to be.
I'm bending the knee as I write.
