    Watching that dross today and the couldn't be arsed attitude of the players made me so angry and i am angry with the players not the fans because who can blame people walking out on that i have never seen so many fans me included who just watched in total disbelief at the display going on in front of our eyes.One couple who sit near me and they are lets be kind but they are very senior in years openly weeping yes weeping the man just saying we have lost our club it is no longer the West Ham they both new and they both left at half time and i wish our board could of seen or heard them because they both said they would not be back West Ham are no longer West Ham,But they were not the only ones going our club is falling apart the fans who love the club have finally decided to start voting with there feet Liverpool midweek who here thinks ahhh you no us we'll turn them over its the kind of stupid thing West Ham do well i am afraid we wont and if Liverpool turn up and only put in a minimal effort it is going to be a citeh opening day scoreline or more and the players pffff they aint bothered to busy with social media and making stupid prank videos No the only ones who care are us the West Ham Fans and you could of taken 11 from the stands today and they would of put on a better show than those overpaid overrated fools we call players so thank you Mr Gold/Sullivan and Ms Brady for destroying a once proud club with a fan base the envy of many who stuck by the club through thick and thin well that is being eroded each week as you like social media so much go look at the various blogs/fan sites/you tube channels everyone that is EVERYONE of them cannot see any good coming out of this or any other season with you in charge and when you come to email us about getting our new season tickets do not expect to be busy because after seeing that rubbish for most of the season and the feeble attempts to make signings the usual smoke and mirrors the low ball offers and now the whining about how hard it is to get players in even on loan ha! you only have yourselves to blame this club is like our bubbles is fading and if we go down we will most probably do a Sunderland.

  • It Takes A Mongoose To Catch A Snake-Sullivan & Payet!

    Football agents of the world rejoice, David Sullivan is back at the helm of West Ham United transfers, cue Willy Mc Kay and Barry Silkman's dubious presence! It had to be, back in his preferred role as a wheeler dealer, but sadly lacking an Ed China, as does Mike Brewer, he is going to get 'gobbled up' without even realising it.

    Despite all the negative criticism aimed at David Sullivan, he doesn't as far as we know kill children or use forced labour, so when rumours began to emerge, both denied and accepted in equal measure, that Marseille's Dimitri Payet might be on his way back to the London Stadium began to gather momentum, the smackings of a 'Sullivanesque' transfer were plain to see.

    Buy for £10.5 Million, sell for £25 Million and then get back on a free, happy Sullivan days! It is not as if the situation is unique, ex manager Manuel Pellegrini consulted the squad on his appointment with regards at whether a return of Payet would be approved, and the overwhelming answer was yes.

    Essentially recruiting Payet on a loan deal would be a complete no brainer, all of those who called Payet a snake would quickly forget that moniker as soon as he delivered a killer pass or scored an insane free kick.

    Payet and Sullivan are ideal bedfellows, the rat and the snake, and if a certain person had been able to limit his indulgences in certain off field activities, the separation need never had happened in the first place. Bring Payet back, you betcha, and in their heart, the vast majority of Hammers fans would agree. - Ed

  • Relegation the only thing that saves us

    The only thing we can pray for is to go down. This constant insistence from out if touch pundits and commentators that relegation is bad and doom and gloom is nonsense. The perpetual clinging on by our fingertips is more doom and gloom in my book. The vast majority of West Ham seasons in the Prem that I can remember: Mid table bottom half finish, shit cup runs, might beat a big club at home but only a maximum of two, lose to the worst team in the league at home, maybe two, every 5 or so years a “cheap” maverick comes along and does a few step overs and rabonas. That’s it, that’s what we are, who we were and who we’ll always be. Embrace it fellow hammers. Average managers, owners and players. We couldn’t be any more mediocre than we are now under Moyes with the bird we have and the playing staff. So I do let’s forget about clinging on, only to cling on next year and the year after. Let’s take our medicine go down, cut the fat out of the team. We all know who they are. Use Noble, Snodgrass, Antonio to bring on some of our youth and go back to winning games. Playing some football. Let the fans have a season of joy. You never know a lot that have had enough might come back. Watch a bit of football, win most games and come back refreshed. The fans will be refreshed. You never know the owners might sell up and hand it on to someone else. Give a Gerard a chance to manage us in the Champs. Otherwise unfortunately all we are is the same as we were at UP but in a stadium we all hate.

  • First Allen Now Nzonzi, Zimmer Frame Utd!

    Submitted by Akira Andersson on Wed, 22/01/2020 - 12:49

    Judging from recent transfer rumours, Hammers majority share holder and co-owner David Sullivan is well and truly 'back in place' since the departure of Mario Husillos as head of recruitment. There is nothing more David Sullivan than a loan deal for an ageing player, and hot on the heels of having Joe Allen watched with a view to signing him, 31 year old Steven Nzonzi has been added to the list!

    Nzonzi last played in the Barclays Premier League in 2015 when he left Stoke City to join spanish outfit Sevilla, he also played for Blackburn Rovers during his time in the UK. Nzonzi has decided an early exit from Turkish loan side Galatasaray is on the cards and an agreement has already been reached between Roma, his parent club, and West Ham for the transfer.

    The player has been out of favour with Galatasaray where he moved on loan to from Roma, he had never settled in Italy following his €26 Milllion move from Sevilla, and became surplus to requirements.

    At 31 years old he hardly fits the David Moyes template of young and hungry, his signing would be just as catastrophic as the potential signing of Joe Allen! Most West Ham fans understand the reality of how difficult January signings can be, and the need for the club to cut it's cloth accordingly, but there's bargain basement buys and then there's the faulty goods returns department, it doesn't take a genius to know which camp the Hammers hierarchy occupy, does it? - Ed

  • Is Allen Medical A Smoke Screen?

    nevillenixon's picture
    Submitted by nevillenixon on Tue, 21/01/2020 - 14:18


    There is a story that has been going around the Associated Press office today that Joe Allen is 'due' for a medical at West Ham ahead of a £6 Million transfer from Stoke City, but before Hammers fans panic, there is apparently more than meets the eye with this transfer speculation.

    Having had Gedson Fernandes 'poached' by the 'unoriginals' of North London, the Hammers hierarchy are trying to keep their cards close to their chests ahead of potential arrivals, not wishing to give any incentives for similar acts of 'sniping'. So given David Sullivan's connection with Joe Allen's agent, and the fact that Allen would be an 'economical' option people have incorrectly assumed Allen would be arriving at the London Stadium before the transfer window closes.

    While being an admirer of Allen, David Moyes would prefer younger, hungrier recruits, with Allen approaching his 30th birthday he is no spring chicken, especially for a player who is supposed to be bolstering a midfield deprived of energy!

    Moyes is believed to be far more interested in the likes of Sander Benge from Genk, or if the deal can be negotiated, 23 year old Ivory Coast international Franck Kessie from AC Milan. If, and of course it is a big IF, Kessie was signed, he would certainly provide a spark, he models himself on Chelsea's Kante and is a 'duracell bunny' when it comes to getting up and down the pitch.

    Kessie represents a step up, if the owners of West Ham box clever then signing a player of his calibre would go some way towards placating disgruntled fans as well as making up for the loss of Fernandes.

    We'll have more news as soon as we get confirmation - Ed
