Spare a thought

Submitted by Stubbsy on

Hi guys I'm glad to be back and nice to see a lot of the names who I had the honour of meeting at the championship play off final against Blackpool.
This leads me to asking all irons fans to spare a thought for Blackpool fc (me living there) whose chairman is systematically destroying the club with out any thought for the loyal fans.
We have had a few dodgy chairman over the last few years but they all have one thing in common they left, this chairman is on a mission to destroy a fine old football club with plenty of tradition and history.

Is it Moyes?

Don't know if there is any truth to this article,but I think it would still leave fans divided .I was sure up until recently Allardyce would remain in charge but I sense now he will be replaced.Moyes is a safe bet, it has to be said,I don't think anybody would question that,and certainly an improvement on Allardyce,but not one who ticks all the boxes for me,I was hoping for someone better.Do you think being realistic,this is the best Westham can attract? I think we would all love to see a Bielsa,Klopp or Benitez,take the reins but cannot see it happening.

Downing

the Downing booking was nothing short of a disgrace and a payback to Burnley , when a player traveling at speed come s into contact with something resembling the back actor of a JCB the only way to avoid injury is to lift the back leg , or as Tony Gayle put it in agreeing with the ref ,trailing , all in all it means you have to land on one leg , now how anyone can land on one leg when jumping in a forward motion is beyond me , unless your Rudolf Nureyev of course , Downing was right to be incandescent with rage and should take it further

1-0 yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

Yes I am taking the peas, bloody hell how bad does Allardyce want the fans to suffer ?.
They went down to 10 men after 23 minutes and all we can manage is to score a penalty.
Were we defending and sitting deep once more against a dead team ? knowing Allardyce very probably.

Money Man or Pacman?

Submitted by ANTKB on

So who do you think will win the biggest fight so far this century? I'm not staying up to watch it, last time I did for a Mayweather fight I fell asleep during the ring entrance and woke up with a bad hangover, but I am intrigued by the potential outcome. I think Mayweather will win on points and it could be boring, but Pac Man will have trained hard for this fight and one early punch could end it. Your thoughts/predictions?

We're Big Sam's Claret and Blue Army!!!

So it seems that forums like these are wrong and the vast majority of fans are pro Allardyce. Large sections of UP can be heard week after week chanting "We're Big Sam's Claret and Blue Army. Things are looking up for next year as Sam will get another two year contract (best to be safe than sorry), Nolan will be doing conditioning work (no alcohol) all summer, so that he can play a full 90 minutes. Carroll has worked hard with his injuries and now looks likely to make at least half the season. Cole will be offered another year and Jarvis is going to be the best right winger, sorry left winger in the country and play for England at he Euros. So on behalf of all those that want another year or two with Allardyce and can't understand what the hoo ha is about, what's your views of how we'll do next year? Who will we sign, bearing in mind that the caveat of Nolan and Carroll always starting applies? Where do you think we'll finish? Come on you must be excited about him staying? Let's have a pro Allardyce discussion just like on the terraces every Saturday.
