I hope he's wrong about Potter but I must admit, I'd have him back in a heartbeat. Pardew really did understand the West Ham fans

So the inevitable stories now doing the rounds about Citeh wanting Paqueta and offering Grealish in exchange...errr no thank you but if you give us £70million i would take that and go and spend it on Buonanotte From Brighton and Fernandes at Southampton who we have been chasing all summer if you believe those rumours.

But if a deal is going to happen it will have to be done quickly as i do not want a scenario where the players head is turned and is then not in the right frame of mind to play...the usual football speak for a player who couldn't give a shit about the club he just wants his money! So if Paqueta does want the move just tell him he can go if they stump up the asking price otherwise no deal no part exchange nonsense anything but the price forget it.

It's not a dig boys before you get your boxers all knotted up nope i watched this this morning as it came up on my feed a lot of women would think wtf grow up but not this girl this was fun and funny keep coming up with this childish brilliant entertainment boys lifes hard but moments like this make you smile and laugh.

Firstly unless he has requested a transfer why would we sell Pacman for a loss once his names cleared this week(hopefully)..It would make no sense as he has two years left on contract so try and keep him and play the younger lads around him i mean at worse we lose him next summer for a lower fee sure but to lose him with the likes of JWP Rodriguez Soucek being there is surely madness.

Secondly why does Bowen stay? i mean i am happy as Larry that he has(fingers crossed)but could we honestly blame him if a club comes in waving the cash about and he goes...he has been at the club long enough to see the farcical way we are run and winning anything again in my Lifetime and maybe even Louis's to boot! sorry to burst your bubble there Louis but i would like to no what or how many times a day the thought of leaving may cross Bowens mind.

Grasshoppers 1 v 3 West Ham........we blew them away it was like watching Brazil in there prime we do not need to buy any more players we looked like a Rolls Royce pure poetry in motion i do not see anyone who can stand in our way.....or maybe the suns got to me a bit this week!

Irving goal was a nice finish Marshalls was quality and a Pacman pen to finish the ROUT! all in all a good little workout but we do have a number of things to work on.

Grashoppers goal was from the edge of our box with nobody closing the player down so a free shot no challenge remember BRIGHTON Potter this is something that is needing addressing big time...Areola clearly still looks suss with the ball to feet and Todibo mmm i am still not sold on the player with some of his play today distinctly lazy.

Harsh words you think and only the first preseason game and i agree with that obviously but with the first game 4 weeks today away much needs working on.

So reading last night on various sites and watching a few vids it appears the club have to pay off a £40million bank loan by the 15th of July and another £5million borrowed to improve the training ground facilities lol well what did that money really go on.

So as ever the owners/billionaires never use there own money and willing to sell off any asset that will cover the loan and sod the fans if its not one/two/three very good players in order to do that.

So as we new all along football is no longer football it is just a place for the the super rich and there egos to park there money and make even more money by using the club to make themselves richer and if it should go tits up well why do they care they will just move on to the next mug club.

I'd like to make a small post in honour of Diogo Jota. He never played for us, played for a team that many despise in this fanbase and also assisted and scored countless goals against us, but most importantly is that he was a Footballer whom many enjoyed & addored to watch as well as he was a Father to three and had only been married for two weeks.

I'd like to give my condolences to Jota and his family, his brother, and his parents who have seen something which no one should.

Gone too soon, Rest In Peace Diogo Jota - The Org

Back from my break yesterday and switched on my mobile(nope don't take it with me when i'm away)and i had a number of messages from West Ham!!!!!!!

Now i stopped being a club member so long ago the memory has faded but i think it is a telling tale how desperate the club must be they were calling to say that my name was top of the list for season tickets(note the plural)and i had to act now to avoid disappointment in missing out on what is going to be an exciting season ahead.

When i stopped laughing and thinking about it all i just thought blimey all these years on and the club still keep your details which is frightening enough and the fact that i never renewed my season ticket after we left the Boleyn and i never put my name on that Laughable £10 waiting list for a season ticket you now wonder what has happened to the alleged many thousands who were on it and where have they gone if the club are now digging up old info to try and sell tickets.

Anyone else had this? or am i special like my dear old mum used to say!

The current atmosphere around the club at the moment is so Negative that not one Fan i know sees anything but relegation ahead(me included) and the reason for the Negativity is purely Sullivans fault with his constant mantra that we have no money we must sell before we can buy and so we the fans and the media build on it because nothing else is coming out from the board apart from the Laughable don't panic it's early days in the transfer market we will be fine.

Well whoever spins that crap for Sullivan clearly is overpaid because the Negativity is going nowhere and growing bigger by the hour/day/week.....When you work in a positive Enviroment where there may be a problem it is nowhere near as bad as working in the same Enviroment where everywhere you look there is no ray of hope.

Sullivan has caused this and now we are looking such an unattractive proposition to players they will most certainly go to a club like Brentford/Brighton/Palace before even giving us a second thought and so Sullivans laughable vision that we moved to compete with the big boys is showing what total nonsense it was...the only thing Sullivan wanted and got was the land grab and the club who cares because he most certainly does not.

I know a few of you don't go to the Goldfish Bowl and left seasons ago but Hammers United and Football Supporters association are running a survey to ask all WHU supporters, what they think is the matter with the stadium and why supporters stopped going the survey will only take 5 mins to fill out and they are after 6000 supporters opinions on what they can do to improve the running of the Stadium. I still have a season ticket and i am fed up with Away supporters in our end and the terrible service at halt time the seats being to far prices to expensive i know that fans will think everything will be ignored but they could not ignore on the concessions and in the end we won that problem and who knows some of the supporters might come back, please participate And perhaps we can make our matchday atmosphere a bit more enjoyable it takes 5 mins. https//www.surveymonkey.com/r/whu-matchday
