Wednesday 7/6/23.
Is anyone else starting to get really ,really nervous ???.
So ,time for predictions . West ham on penalty's.

Hello everybody peeps. Stavros here, I'm a just letting you all knows, I'm a taking charge of the Spud U likes over in meze, meze land.

I'm having a big kebab off and that Levy bloke says you hammers can have all the pies init.

They is bloody cheap as chippys and will go with all your mashie potatoes.

Anyway peeps I is gonna teach that Hairy Kane how we do the Divy, Divy Dey dance and smash all the plates. Basic skills init.

Laters potaters........

The suns shining its a bank holiday and the beach is calling Yay so before i leave my hotel just wanted to put this thought out there about our wonderful club.

Win the Conference cup enjoy the open top bus ride and annoy the hell out of Spud/Chelski/Gooner fans hammers fans turn out in there thousands cheering the lads and one in particular our captain Rice the scene may put doubts in his mind about leaving(hopefully)and then front up chelski and say £55million for Mason Mount(Decs best pal)that would in my mind certainly make Rice think you know 5 games in the champs league with the gooners get knocked out whats the point follow that up with Barnes from Leicester and that blonde bombshell Gyokeres from Coventry job done on big money transfers then start looking for freebies to pad the squad if Moyes still with us.

Heat may of gone to my head i admit but a girl can dream:-) right off to the beach whose applying the sunscreen to my back and legs? Burkie jeez never around when you need him:-)xx

It appears Wolves are in the shit and Loputegui who I thought was a Sopranos character could be walking due to lack of investment. He seems to know his arse from his paella.

I say, walk this way Senior.

Mr Dino Moyes will be chucking the towel in at the end of the season trophy or no trophy...

Well more by default than design. We are safe for sure. Leicester and Everton can only obtain 36 points each and we are on 37 before we play dirty Leeds. I'm fairly sure we will stuff BFS anyway, but onwards and upwards....

I reckon we can! There's a togetherness about this side of late sadly lacking for a good 18 months,but its great that we've managed to hit form at the right time.The manure game for me was the turning point,our boys played out of their skin to get the result that pretty much secured our prem status! Against the alphabet mob we were assured,together & played a blinder imo long may it continue & we can lift a trophy at last!! COYI

Sunday could and most probably be the last time we see our Captain Declan Rice in the claret & blue of West Ham at the London Stadium.
Such a shame. We will be losing the heart of the team. A tremendous player and a wonderful human being. But we can't be bitter. Rice could have left before but he chose to stick with us. Let's hope if he leaves we will have the memory of him lifting the European Conference Cup.
If he does go on to pastures new he surely goes with our blessing. I for one wish you every success in the future and you are deserving of all the medals and riches coming your way. Thank you.

Declan Rice can the club keep him for another season?.Hearing the astronomical amounts being put around in the media can the club say know? i think they can and if we win this European trophy and qualify for another season in europe would that convince him to stay for one more year?.

I think if the club who i understand are under no real pressure to sell as the young man has two years left on his contract were not to offer a new deal but up his wages for the new season and guarantee they would sell him for £60million the following year because i think a similar situation arose when Haaland was at Dortmund and nobody was prepared to pay the money Dortmund wanted so they left it a year and the release clause was triggered for half the money can we do similar?

I think the emotion of being the first West ham Captain to pick up a trophy in over 43 years and make that 58 years for a European trophy could and might tip the balance for one more season as at 24 years old he has more than enough time to play for the biggest clubs in world football and for a cheaper fee than this summer who knows.

..........is not a matter of life and death. It's much more important than that."

Maybe a bit tongue in cheek but I think we can all relate to it.

Just thinking about the discussion on "Real fans" in the post "BE careful what you wish for" and the past couple of days with whats been happening in Football. It seems like only yesterday when Luton Town were in administration and sent packing to the Conference League in 2009, legendry stories of the mob they brought to Dartford and visa versa. Their loyal fans are close to reward, they are now just one win away from joining the elite in the Premier League which really got me counting my blessings for being a Hammer, we think we have had it rough, look at those guys!

On the same subject is a wonderful old club Notts County. I have a very good friend, Ian, basically the step father in law to my son, who is a fanatic for this proud club, travelling the length and breath of the country even in the conference league. What a season they have had, taking on the glory hunting Hollywood Wexham, coming second with a record breaking points tally that another year would have secured promotion, 2 nil down in the play off semi at half time only to win 3-2 and then the final, behind twice and winning on penalties.. no wonder the chap has no hair!!!

If you are a true Football fan open the attachment, its a great read albeit not West Ham... The little boy in photo is my Grandson... dont be alarmed by his shirt... He's still a Hammer through and through... 5th Generation
