Valencia and Other Forwards

I'm not a fan of Valencia and think he is too lightweight as a forward in the UK. The Bristol City game was evidence enough to see how easy he was knocked off the ball and doesn't cope with physical side of the game. Add to that the lack of goals, and lack of movement off the ball in recent games, leads me to believe that if Chelski did really want to sign him then I would be very happy for us to get the £15-20m as quoted. Your views to a £12-15m signing with no proven statistics in a league comparable to the Premier League? And BFS went public to admit he wanted Carroll over Bony so why are we so bad at signing decent forwards? It's been annoying me for weeks, the thought of the absolute rubbish that BFS has bought in terms of attacking players and for paying over the odds. Do you agree? Sakho was a board signing and not BFS, so does this prove his lack of attacking ability as a manager?

As you have all been so kind in your messages of good will to my daughter I thought I should update you on a few things. Tilly had an accident in December 2014 and managed to break her leg, she blames me to anyone who asks even though I was downstairs getting her wheelchair ready, so was in cast for 8-10 weeks. The level of care we had got used to for so many years went up a few notches and it proved difficult. Just over 2 weeks ago, during a routine day at Great Ormond Street Hospital, the Mrs mentioned the fact that Tilly's leg and foot was still severely swollen so they did a scan. The scan revealed a blood cot so Tilly was admitted and remained there for 12 days, then her blood was thinned too much so warferin was given to thicken the blood. The long and short is that Tilly returned home last week but, will have to have weekly blood tests and daily doses of the drug for life, along with the 10 other daily medications. Tilly is home and we are blessed so let's see what tomorrow brings....:) COYI and thanks to everyone on here as it is a great release and bonded by great people, so big thanks to Nev as I have missed the org

Sullivan Abuse Video

A video has shown up on C&H with transcript this morning. All I can say is that it is a disgrace to West Ham Fans. Of course I can understand their anger. DS was probably angry too -- but he kept his cool. Still, he's a lot shorter on video than I thought, and older too, so to me the approach of those fans looked bordering on an assault. And the expletives were pretty hard to take. Look, I feel the same fundamental view as those fans felt -- Big Sam has to go -- but I wish they could have approached the co-chairman with a little more grace and dignity. Anger is OK, but the personal abuse is uncalled for. And the abuse hurled towards KB uncalled for too. What do you think?

That was grim watching today and hard to stomach. Totally outplayed and outthought in all areas. We were so ineffective and lethargic, lacked creativity. West Brom wanted it more. Nolan Song and Noble useless. Cresswell and Tomkins also out of sorts. Quite the worst I have seen this season but not sure when we played well last discounting the heroic defending against Southampton. We just look cack.
