how to ruin a football club

Submitted by mcbikeman on

This isn't just about being relegated that happens we get on with it but when you get owners like ours who profess to love the club and saved it from ruination then you have to wonder what they think they are doing now? they tore the heart out of supporters by making the move to the athletics stadium turning us from home owners into rentboys overnight...made big noises about getting better players in and then try to confuse fans with smoke and mirror figures on how much we spend whilst all the time making a tidy profit made on loans to the club at a healthy 6/7% return for themselves all the while the debt we are in seems not to be shrinking....they eventually find the balls to sack bilic something that needed doing in the summer and then bring in a manager few believe can help us but stick him on a 6 month contract only i mean its unreal isn't it? even billy smarts phoned up asking for tips on how to improve his circus...the reason behind all this of course in none of there fault nope its we the supporters who are to blame for not embracing the dream and getting behind the Team...teams of gestapo like flag snatch squads dispatched to away matches as well as home ones if you dont sit down we will throw you out we will cancel season tickets then oops we made a balls up so we will get the young boy sullivan to apologise for the mistake and get it reinstated....choose to take smaller allocation for away games why? and make it near impossible to qualify to get an away ticket unless you were born on the 3rd of the month during a full moon and like russian hats!...our chairmen/board are not and never will be football people they do not have a clue in that area.....they ruined birmingham and we are heading for the same fate make no doubt on that my friends...all we are is a business that by doing nothing you make money thats why they are in it and as soon as that goes so will they.....overpaying for players 6 month contract for manager its ridiculous everton after all there dithering got bfs in on a two year deal same a wba with pardew no 6 months there nope its 2 years....i'd say we are a laughing stock but we the fans are not it is those who supposedly no what they are doing who are doing that and what a fine job to....no home no passion=relegation and who suffers? certainly not the players they will be off first chance they get leaving us the fans with the wreckage of yet another pipedream gone up in smoke now that is very West ham indeed

Everton Allardyce

so after what is probably the worst ever interview for the job (unsworth) and having shopped around for everyone but Allardyce, Everton look set to appoint Allardyce. I guess when you approach everyone and his brother and get spurned by them all, you are left with the last turkeys in the shop….the old, worn out ones like Pulis and Allardyce. Wouldn't they have been better sticking with Koeman? He surely couldn't do any worse than Unsworth. Im guessing they see Allardyce as the 'go to' man when everyone else says no and you need to get out of a rut. Interesting to see how it pans out. Bout time Everton got relegated and will be interesting to see how or if Sam turns things round.

so why not sackho

He's like marmite i no but with chicarito injured carroll total rubbish and one dimensional why not give the guy another go with ayew.....it would make us much more mobile upfront thats for certain.....young martinez is of course worth a chance but not as a lone striker that would be to much at this stage for him....carroll if we got any kind of offer i would snatch there hands off but i do worry when reading this morning that we are after some prolific russian striker named Fyodor Smolov....nope me neither and it smacks to me of yet another sullivan buy...56 goals in three seasons for Krasnodar but you have to think about the gulf in class between the russian and prem league....so back to sackho lets give the guy a chance his movement and pace is what we need if we get the non sulking pre internatinal back injury sak back we will do well.

Moyes..all talk and no product?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

moyes has been talking himself up a lot since he arrived. all this 'i don't want to talk about everton' and yet constantly talking about everton….its a bit like mourinho saying he doesnt talk about injuries and then going on and on about injuries. kinda like someone who says 'no offence' and then goes on to offend. anyway, looking at the set up against watford i can see better organisation defensively. the back 4 looked better imo than anything under bilic this season. but we mustered nothing in terms of attack. carroll was up there on his own and the midfield 5 was basically there to do an allardyce. my concern is that moyes is so hellbent on sorting out the defence and making us 'hard to beat' that we will continue to offer nothing going forward. even at 2 down he didnt want to put two up front. I'm beginning to think that he may have been talking the talk but that he's past it now and even his 'everton' system is outdated. the only sad consolation if he fails will be to teach the board a lesson. id say relegation might be a good thing i.e. the usual clear out and rebuild but we've not got a stadium to fall back on this time and also we been there done that and ended up worse. the only way this club will get sorted imo is if the board go and someone takes over like at newcastle or even someone with more sense and understanding on how to run a club. reading allardyce (who himself carries a whiff of dodgy dealings with him) and how he says Sully lets his son play with the club as if its his toy, making stupid remarks online and getting involved in personal attacks on players….its just embarrassing. when you look at them in the stands, looking down on the 'peasants' who pay to watch the drivel served up each week and the final whistle goes and off they go back to the limo for 5 start dining and home to the mansion….they just look deluded. why not give the fans something? why not appoint Dyche who i think we may have got since everton don't want him, or bring in someone who's style suits the club more….Betty is right, Moyes and his brand of football is not going to change….those who pay are going to suffer this 'hard to beat', one up front stuff till the end of the season now and even then we will probably go down because moyes has been there and done that with sunderland. i had some slight optimism, just that maybe moyes with his new talk and positivity would offer a lot more in sense of all round team play. yes its early, but can anyone see his style morphing into something more than get it wide and put it into the box?

Just wondering if this club goes down the pooper just how are those three going to square it ,I can't think of another senourio like this ,They sell one of the best loved grounds in the premiership and turn it into a car park and rent a hideous athletics stadium ,their incompident management of West ham is obvious.
Please don't interpret this post as any sort of insightment but with the amount of bad feeling out there and the enormity of whats happening i know one thing i wouldn't be hanging around
