I was at the Brighton game, mad I know and will be at the Forest game.
Most unusually I left early, the trains were a mess and I couldn't afford to miss a connection as this would have added nearly an extra two hours to the journey, next week I will drive!
So having left about 5 mins early I headed fleet of foot to Stratford with a fair few others chuntering about the game and lack of defense, lack of this, lack of that, the usual stuff.
When I got close to Westfield, just outside the station and the last point of the marshals slowing or stopping / halting the crowd, the main Marshal / Steward thought it ever so funny to play through his phone and the loudhailer Monty Python Life of Brian Always Look On The Brightside of life.
Nothing wrong with that you might think, where's your sense of humour but... the pri** was wearing a Chavski Beanie!!!
Thousands marched past with zero reaction... Including me!
The more mature Orgers would probably agree that such an event was never seen at Upton Park, there would have been a mini riot and said *rick would have had the loudhailer shoved somewhere intermit! In short no one would have dared such a stunt and take such a liberty!!
I just thought on the train that I was totally wrong about the move to the BoM and all my initial positivity had evaporated. It really was the moment our club truly died, we lost our heritage, our culture... in the words of every away fan to the BoM "We sold our soul for this ****hole!"
I have backed the BS OUT campaign and will continue to give them support.
We never sold our Soul Dartford
It was stolen from us...i never remember being asked if i wanted the move? i'd love to meet someone who actually was asked.
Spot on Mac
Totally agree.. it was stolen!!

I'd love to meet someone who actually wanted the move and swallowed all that shit from the Dildos.
Ah soh!! cue those popcorn munching tourists. Why you no risten Cooky boy!!
I admit Boogers I was sold
I admit Boogers I was sold the dream that has become the nightmare. It was all smoke and mirrors!
Were two polls
That I knew of. One by the fans which I signed against and was a definite no and one by the board which I didn't get a vote and surprisingly was an aye. I understand Diane Abbot was in charge of the counting.
I'll keep on asking ," how
I'll keep on asking ," how much did they get for Uppers" ?
Land Registry
Shows it sold for £40 million but you can bet your bottom dollar that " agreements" were tied into the sale.

I havent got my ticket now as i have previously stated,but still go up for the beers in Stratford,but didnt go up for the Brighton game,your right Dartford at Upton Park that twat wouldnt of got away with it,but im 61 and of the old school,and would of said something to that prick,without doubt,though my wife readily says to me to calm down,some of these youngsters now are pussies,we were brought up stronger in our time.
Correct Essex
Pussies.
The heart is totally torn out of this club... its over, we are a laughing stock.
I cant understand any West Ham fan that is prepared to be humiliated and Mocked on TALKshite by Cundy and O'Hara.. Have they no principles?
Dartford/Essex
You are both so right..i rmbr going to a game at the Boleyn getting a drink and watching the final embers of the lunchtime kickoff and there was banter going on between a man serving fans and few others when someone noticed that he had a Gooners shirt on WTF all i will say is the shutter was pulled down quick and old Bill had to come in and escort that fool out quick smart what was he thinking? fans today would probably applaud him and say how well his team were doing....i'm a dinosaur i no but somethings you just cannot accept.
Yep
There was at least 3 of us roaming the prehistoric streets of East London. Those were the daz, no one took liberties at West Ham!
I just wonder if its the same with other clubs? Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal etc allow same practice in their manors?
