  1. Maybe i dont know....maybe im talking too much with the heart and not enough with the head ive been known to do that regards the Hammers ?
  2. The whole Prevail & Conquer attitude is a lovely romantic notion but its a mindset very very few athletes actually have......and the reason they dont have it is because common sense is boss once adrenaline has run out ?
  3. Obviously i want to do the treble next year but knowing my club like i do i accept we probably wont,i doubt very much we,ll do it the year after either but i,ll still cheer my mob on with all the same enthusiasm and hope that we will so dont be pulling me up as a no hoper type......BUT......i dont expect anything different to any other season because i didnt fall for the bullshit......you did !!....so your expectations have risen....and if they havent risen then why havent they !!!! The bargaining tool for giving up our place of worship was sporting success i mean at this point aint you j
  4. Of course id like to be smacking about the bigger clubs who wouldnt........but i dont want to do that with a club i dont recognise i want to do that with the club i know and grew to love as a kid,i want to do it with the long suffering fans who have been on the same journey ive been on........otherwise whats the point in it all ?....what do you really gain from any competitive success if you havent taken part in the process that got you there we can all take joy and happiness from " oil sheikh victory "....but what pride can you really take from it ?.........i said from the very start i felt s
  5. Must admit ive never really had any issues with Jews i can understand people hating on them as their big chiefs are slippery fuckers to say the least but your average run of the mill orthodox Jews ive encountered kicking about Stamford Hill and Stoke Newington seem alright apart from the ropey dress sense ....polite and keep themself to themself theres plenty id throw on the fire before them !
  6. Same with darts.....used to start off with a good 20/25 people all putting a tenner in....2 or 3 people left and you could cut the atmosphere with a knife.....funny days. Mind you i was diabolical at darts at least i had half a chance at pool.
  7. So would the darkies but give them a hard time and you see where it gets you !
  8. Wilf when we,ve been in relegation battles in the past did you think we had an entitlement not to be then as well ? What im saying to you is our fans have unwittingly developed some kind of " big club " mentality that thinks along the lines of a Man Utd or Arsenal supporter in terms of " how dare we be in a relegation battle " The reason some of our fans now think this way is solely because of the move to the new ground.......to me its business as usual.
  9. Sorry if it seems like ive come on a big strong mate its just this attitude of entitlement in sport f****n bugs the life out of me we see it in boxing where a fighter becomes a big name through doing f**k all apart from getting twitter likes i love sport too much for it to be diminished into a finance driven popularity contest. West Ham as a footie club means the world to me i value it too much to just disregard our past and say "ok boys we,ve made it we,re a big club now "
  10. Progress can ONLY be on a football pitch though mate im f****d if im going to start singing Sweetest Victory because we now play in a 60k arena in a shopping complex instead of a shitty old football ground next to a bus garage ! One day when we win some things maybe our anthem can change but for today yesterday and the day before its perfectly appropriate for us.
  11. I totally get that....ive had chance after chance to move away permanently but i just cant do it im an East End lad and dont really want to be anything else maybe i just lack ambition ?........fortunately lifes been reasonably kind and i dont have to be around the dump on an everyday basis but i still have a place i can see the ground out my window on a clear day so i get that loyalty to your area mentality and what i meant by " just me and my pals left " is this boom isnt going to last forever so when the " progress " comes to a halt or even regresses.....its people like me and your pal who w
  12. What does he do walk there ?
  13. Newkid i dont mean any disrespect but theres a song about bubbles we have been singing for years and years......look it up and listen to the words. Should we simply start singing Sweetest Victory instead and just forget our history and culture even though we have absolutely no entitlement.....or is being " a big club " the real victory ? You are talking as though something terrible is happening to the club but this is just who and what we are......the only reason its being seen as a calamity is because people now think we're a big club.........and they only think we are a big club s
  14. Stiffy i get it mate.....im not a div that dont know whats going on in the world....but dont ask me to like it.....theres things going on in all walks of life they call progress.....but it dont mean its good progress. Take all the tv money,the foreign talent and glitz and glamour away from football and football grounds and you,ll be left with me and my little pals rocking around a big 60k arena saying " Bill i told you we should of stayed at Upton Park "
  15. No dont get me wrong i get it......Exeter is a pretty crap club so i can see why you chose the next nearest ?
  16. Apparently im starting to sound like a right bitter twisted old c**t ?
  17. What i fell for is what we all as locals fell for and was over the moon with at the time. What you fell for only about 1 in 3 of our fans fell for and could have/should have been stopped ! The reality is we didnt fight hard enough as a community to stop the move because too many fans from off the plot had eyes too big for their belly ?
  18. Aint you the Man Utd supporter from Devon or somewhere........yeah easy innit when you can just cast your own aside and join the deluxe model ?
  19. I liked my club mate....so yes i was perfectly happy with everything,infact in our last few seasons at Upton Park we were showing steady improvement season to season to the point where we had our highest Premier League finish and European football.....now we,re in a relegation battle.....Spurs and Arsenal were always bigger clubs than us i dont have a problem with that...Millwall are our rivals and some of our fans need to remember that ? When you say " same old West Ham " do you mean like " same old Everton ?....or same old Southend Utd at their level ?.....or same old Leyton Orient at t
  20. Ive got a pile of brand new carpet you can have here Wilf,get what you can for it ?.......no no no its ok i insist.....no its ok your most welcome im just a kind hearted guy. " oi lads you,ll never guess what,you know how laminate floorings all the rage well ive only gone and dumped all my ol carpet onto that geezer Wilf he thinks he,s had a right touch " ?
  21. I played a lot of pool as a younger man i became half decent ( and table tennis )... B wing champ in Chelmsford and 2's champ in Wandsworth early 90,s ? Didnt play for a while then started playing in a Friday aftenoon pool club in South London...playing killer for decent money soon livened my game up again ? Didnt play for years then started playing again more recently so had a half decent snooker table put in at home but the ol peepers were letting me down so swapped it for a pool table....we have a few pals over for a game a couple of quid swaps hands and then we all end up having
  22. So are you still glad we moved from Upton Park then Wilf ? Dont worry you havent got to answer that....i,ll be periodically asking you the same question over the coming years ? What was it we was told a few weeks after we left Upton Park for this new shithole...." There will be no going back " Oh watcha David Moyes hows tricks

    VAR

    I think the good thing to come out of the whole Var era will be a new found respect for referees as fans can now see just what a difficult job they have......hence,if Var was binned now today referees will actually come out of it well,they wont get so much of a hard time and us as fans get our old game back......everyone wanted Var...we,ve tried it and its horrible...so elbow it and carry on......goal line tech,yes....Var a big fat NO ?
  24. I remember telling people years ago that theres a war against the white man and most people said i was talking bollocks so im glad other people are starting to notice it as well....make no mistake about it television is no longer an industry of entertainment its a department of propaganda and social engineering to distort and warp peoples perception of reality.....in America today non whites account for the majority of the nations newborns......only once the quality of life has gone significantly down will people start to actually care that they are being replaced in their homelands....same he
  25. Thats lovely news well in son ....i think this grandad malarkey is blindin !
