What a day this is going to be for me...the past 8 years i have been giving my best mate shit about Sunderland and loving it! but today when we are both watching the game together on one of those naughty illegal streams i just hope we turn up and give them a proper footballing lesson...

Like me my mate is a Surrey man born and bred but he has been waiting an awful long time to get his revenge and a loss today would see me get 8 years of shit back bigtime lol it is what makes football football and fun...dreading that idiot at work who is waiting to give you shit about your team knowing if the shoe was on the other foot you would do the same.....so stuff all the transfer tittle tattle stuff whether Potters your man or not no today is about West Ham turning up and beating the Mackems because if we don't i am in for a long few months till we play them again so please West Ham do not let me down today. COYI

Okay i see this has been sneaked out just before the new season starts and as fans our notice is on the weekend but i am seriously worried about the future of our club.

West Ham have registered a charge to borrow from "Rights and Media Funding Limited" and represent a multi-million-pound credit facility. This is on top of the money we just borrowed from Barclays recently and that was £145million so why do we need to borrow more? and further investigation seems to show this company has the fingerprints of another billionaire mogul as in a certain Mr Tabor he who supports West Ham and seemingly always has an interest in buying the club but never does and not interested in Golds shares.

More worryingly i noticed this as i perused the web and it does make the fear grow even more.

I’m an Everton fan - rights & media funding should raise the alarm bells. They’ve had us by the balls for years at extortionate interest rates. That loan was a huge part of our psr problems and nearly sent us into administration. We only just shook them off as our new owners were generous enough to clear the debt. You guys really need to start protesting.

A very worrying turn of events and when you see what has happened to clubs badly managed in the past well we could be the next on the chopping block and end up if we are lucky washing around the championship and below during my dotage!

Just in case you've not seen it .

So, who are confident and who are despondent for the coming season? Nail your predictions to the mast now or forever hold your peace.
I can only see us having a maximum of five points by the end of September, probably leaving us somewhere in the bottom three but maybe just avoiding relegation at the end of the season due to the limitations of the three promoted clubs.
Potter to possibly be gone by Christmas.

I've been going out with a girl, her name is Julie. But last night she said to me while we was watching telly.

This is what she said - She said, listen John I love you, but theres this bloke I fancy, I don't want to 2 time you so it's the end for you & me.

Who's this bloke I asked her? Herman she replied. Not that puff I said dismayed. Yes, but he's no puff she cried. He's a better keeper than you'll ever be.

But I know he's a moron Herman is a moron...

Ere we go 2 3 4........

One for the Grandads kids - sorry but I just could not resist it.

I thank you

What's happening? Just out of hibernation,freekin cold isn't it ? Any way got a lot of reading to do and a lot of fish to eat ,try and fatten up for the winter.
How many did we sign ,? Who did we sell ?,did Sullivan shrink any more ? ,are we going back to uppers or not.
Can't say why but I'm quietly confident about fourth coming season .

We all love our anthem and the way it is sung and the chitty chitty bang bang themed turn is excellent but yesterday evening in the background to the interview with Jack Collinson(great to see that man again)a new version of how it is sung came to light what do you lot think?starts around 1min 52 of the vid.

Great. Just frikking great. Now watch the stampede for season tickets.
Seriously, what planet is Sullivan on? Might just as well have extended Ants or even renegotiated Ings. At least Ings wasn't a walking injury cripple.
