Russian outfit

Submitted by cast iron on

Now I know why he wears that Russian outfit he does not think that the board should be criticised. and has banned 3 fans in for bringing a banner into the ground apparently you cant bring a flag or banner into the ground if it is bigger than 2metresx 1metre a banner was "smuggled" which looks a lot bigger but was not offensive, into the Bobby Moore stand, for the Sunderland game the fans have been suspended I know Rules are rules but I wonder how many fans knew about this? B&S certainly did so the fans were e mailed telling him he is banned for the next 3 home games what a hooligan and he has supported WHU for 47 years I dont know about the other 2 supporters but it just goes to show that Sullivan does not believe in demonstrations or free speech the supporters are nothing to them but they will find out how important we are next season- no on 2nd thoughts I don't think they care- the lowest of them all could have been sorted with a phone call or better still just a warning NO MORE BS

The Modern Game

Submitted by Deluded Hammer on

Is it just me getting disillusioned with the game today. Back when I was growing up in the 60's watching the game it was so simple. There was no VAR, the offside rule simple and handball was handball, There was only one camera high up above the stands broadcasting, calm commentary from the likes of Brian Moore, Motson or Kenneth Wolstenholme dressed in sheepskins or heavy raincoats. Not a hint of some squeaky voiced dolly bird dressed in the latest fashion nodding furiously at every comment made by those who knew what they were talking about.
, The referees decision was final and the linesman generally so. Goalkeepers caught the ball and also took goal kicks unless injured. Players went down only if they had a broken leg and any other injury play was waved on until it went out of play. The object of the game was to score more goals than the opposition, none of this sideways, sideways, sideways and back, before sideways. sideways again. I remember the boos and the slow handclaps if they dared pass back to the keeper in those days.
And then there is the allure of the players themselves. Never mind the allure of going to the games to watch our own players, Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst, Billy Bonds or Trevor Brooking, I would go to games to see the oppositions special attractions, The Stan Bowles, Rodney Marshes or the George Bests and Bobby Charltone. Even the lower teams like Spurs had their Jimmy Greaves, Burnley's Ralph Coates, or Leicester Citys Frank Worthington. Even goalkeepers would get me out on a freezing snow driven day like Pat Jennings, Gordon Banks or Peter Shilton. So many names from nearly all teams but there isn't a single Premier League player that would tempt me to part with my hard earned today.
Of course, I can't stop whinging without a mention to the sterilised grounds of today. The day the demolition of the Twin Towers of Wembley was the start of the rot in my opinion. Highbury, The original Den of Millwall, White Hart Lane and of course our own Boleyn Ground. Gone are the roasted peanuts, hot chestnuts braziers, burgers dripping in greasy fat and onions and the spit and sawdust pubs of the day. I won't mention the price match tickets these days. Corporate Hospitality? That was for those who had a seat wasn't it?
Anyone feel the same?

Scrap the Transfer window Poll

Submitted by mcbikeman on

Should they be scrapped and back to the old ways of buying any player you can afford whenever you want during the season..or do you like the way the current system works or would you like to see one universal window open in the summer and all deals across all leagues in Europe end on the same day and no further deals can be made until the following summer?

Think the Penny Has finnaly Dropped with Sullivan

Submitted by cast iron on

Remember at the begining of the ballon demonstration the ballons message Stop Explotig Our support, think Sullivan thought "There West Ham fans," they will turn up no matter what. Well he found out he was wrong, and the fans have got fed up with the team and the boards attitude and voted with their feet, it must have gone through his mind that this is what this Stadium is going to look like next season-it was half empty with as many seats vacant as there was for the Brentford Demonstration and now he has realised that supporters are not going to turn up till he goes.I looked on the ticket exchange there was as many vacant seats in the Bobby Moore Stand as there were being used. How's he going to sell this club now?? With all the supporters walking away, and all the tourists going to watch Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal don't think they are going to want to Watch WHU vs Wrexham in the pouring rain, come to that many season ticket holders wont either, me included! you have run this club like a circus and you will be very lucky to sell the club for 1.5 million you have nothing to sell you dont own the ground, Rush Green is mortgaged so is Chadwell Heath together with the Portacabins. You should have got out when WHU won the Conference and we sold Declan Rice now you have left it to late you had your chance we all wanted you and Brady out even then 3years ago Perhaps if you had taken notice we may have stayed in the premiership well now youve paid the ultimate penalty and so have our supporters. Your billion pounds looks a bit silly now Doesn't it. B&S OUT

Get this clown out of our club

Submitted by cast iron on

Its just been reported that Fullkrug is going to A C Milan on loan for absolute peanuts with a no oblgation to buy so when he gets injured in February we will be stuck with him till the end of the season and his hefty wage bill. I'm fed up with Sullivan I honestly believe he has lost the plot if he has agreed to this deal wish he would just get out of our club he has allready ruined it and is the reason WHU are going to get relegated with terrible decisions like these

Boys and your toys

Submitted by hammergirl on

Just do not understand what it is about you Men but this weekend my Gramps and Dad who have been making room in Gramps Garage are as excited as a couple of kids at the fairground.Why are they so excited well its over a car of course and as always it's a classic(when is it not!)and one my Gramps cannot wait to get in as it was his pride and joy back in the day and all the ladies loved it lol dirty old bugger Grandma did say it had that effect! but come on it is just a car!

For those of you interested it is a TR7 and my mind went blank as they both started talking some foreign language as far as i was concerned so went and had a nice cuppa with Grandma and will take her shopping before the Burnley game because you boys must have time to play with your toys no matter your age.

So what is your favourite toy? and Boogers keep it clean now!

So Paqueta is finally sorted

Submitted by cast iron on

So Paquetta betting scandal is finally sorted what an absolute disgrace that it has take so long to sort it out, the FA cost WHU at least 80 million that they could have got for him from Citeh which would have helped us with 2 new players, ruined the player, worried the life out of his family Remember him crying at the spurs match and at the end of the day what was this all about. They have found that he was answerable to 2 charges this is so they don't get sued, this case was the biggest load of B*llock$ of all time by the FA and as for taking 8 weeks to come to a decision was a complete joke

I can see big money problems ahead

Submitted by cast iron on

After last nights game against Brentford I can see big money problems ahead because if we go down this will lead to a reduction in Sky money plus there will be a big drop in the amount of "customers" and I cant see the attendance figures picking up for a few seasons we will lose a lot of our players leaving, because they think that they are to good to play in the champions league. This is when you will see Brady and Sullivan leave, this will be seen as a big feather in the hat of many supporters but there no mugs, they know they have stripped the club to the bone, you might see a few hard core supporters come back. But the overseas supporters will go to elsewhere, and you will find the Club shop will suffer. You can see Sullivan saying he has done his best but in reality there is nothing in the cupboard because he has bled the club dry and with his bad managerial decisions he has finished us off
