Im not so sure about that at the relegation end of the table i think we still see a lot of the Mourinho type nick a goal and then park the bus...yes the top clubs are not happy with a 1 nil you only have to look at the goals for columns compared to other years.....but i still think it can almost be unfair to watch a team get totally outplayed but park the bus and hoof it to a draw sometimes.....i once said to a mate that to stop that i think there should be a rule that a team must have 3 players in front of the ball at all times or a free kick should be awarded......................yeah he sai

Slip a Leicester one in your glove box as well better safe than sorry ? Heres a question for you Wilf then we,ll call time on this..........be honest,with hindsight.....do you regret the move ?

I love them old school Fords my first car was a brown 3 litre Capri ? ....still remember the way the back would slide out in the wet....had a 2.0s....a 2.8i later on. Escort wise i had a few Mk1 RS.....a Mk 2 Mexico and Rs2000.....some f****d up mk1 Escort we tried putting a v8 or v6 in i forget now that ended in disaster.....i always wanted one of them Lotus Cortinas with the green stripe but never got round to it....even had a Minder Escort at one point with the big box arches,what a melt ! ? Never liked the Mk 3 shape so swerved the xr3,s and Rs Turbo....besides id got more into g

Well if its good enough for Tom Oar its good enough for me ? In all honesty i aint doing nothing till i have at least half an idea what im doing or i,ll end up either poisoning myself or hacking a finger off im somewhat heavy handed at the best of times.

Why dont you just admit it Wilf you are a glory hunter ?..........no that wouldnt sit well with me.....look i say again...i liked my football club,i liked who we was and what we represented....i wasnt asking for anything we didnt already have and the reason for that is i have seen clubs change over the years ( your Chelseas and Citys ) and i genuinely dont understand how fans can take any pride from those clubs or those communities whatsoever......im a local lad Wilf i want to do well for the area and the club badge not for a bank balance or to say " we,re now a big club "....f**k all that.

Thats more a society thing though Wilf......football is the most popular sport in the world making it the perfect tool to advertise a manufactured society....as we constantly see regarding all the anti racist anti semetic anti homophobia dont call anyone anything dont speak just nod carry on !
-
I honestly think non league football is on the up and up....the quality of the pitches,facilities and talent on the pitch i dont think has been this good certainly in my time ...i watch football as low down as the 6th and 7th tiers of the football league system and no longer do you get the drunken fat bloke trying to wade through mud up and down the wing we moan about how the game has gone at the top level but this is the knock on effect of that.
-
But i dont know anybody who used them things as " excuses "......most of our fans knew exactly who we were and what we were about i never really expected young men destined to play at the highest level of world football to stay at West Ham all their careers....did you ? Wilf you keep talking about our academy as though you are proud of it......so if you was proud of it why did you want to move and make our club " more attractive to the top players around the world " ? Or what....did you think that we could become this new brand attracting the worlds great players....and then still br

I wouldnt say boxing has been dragged through the mud far from it....in this country in particular its through the roof popularity wise as the coverage and paydays indicate.....the McGregor thing or the Youtube kids isnt something that proper boxing fans would really take seriously....its shit yes that WWF style nonsense has made its way into boxing but i think thats only to get non boxing fans putting their hands in their pockets.....im not a Fury fan but its unfair to lump him in with that lot as rightly or wrongly he is sitting at the top tables of boxing.....we all bow to nostalgia mate i

Smoking kills far more people than alcohol i think the figure worldwide is something like 4 times as many........they say substances are responsible for 1 in 5 deaths globally but a lot of nations only use alcohol with a meal Italians for example view drunkeness as uncouth and bad mannered and use it in the right way. You cant say that because some people have problems with alcohol that means alcohol or " the British pub " is a bad thing......more people die from obesity than alcohol but nobody says restaurants are a bad thing....f**k me how far do you want to take it over a million peopl

Pre - formed bodies almost seems like cheating to me....either do it all or not at all would be my outlook.....besides which being creative seems half the talent of it....just wrapping a fur around a model dont seem right to me somehow........theres certainly a lot to it and i,ll probably nause it right up when the time comes,but its an itch id like to scratch at some point.
-
I have been in touch with Rob he seems a top chap in his field.....probably not the best to compare a first effort to though ?
-
Good man thankyou mate...im just trying to suss out if his way would now be seen as " old hat " or whether they still use wire netting and loft insulation stuffed down the legs ?.....seemed a bit Blue Peter to me that but f**k it what do i know.
-
Tipsy/Merry i think is a lovely state to be in either yourself or others in your company.....but drunks i cant be around,i would feel totally vulnerable drunk in public so try to drag that " tipsy " feeling out as long as possible ?

Boxing must be the only sport where a competitor actually gains more credit from doing nothing than he gets from competing !.....people are constantly looking into the future saying if he does this or if he fights like that.....and completely neglecting what has already actually happened......look at what has already been proven instead of what might happen in the future and you,ll see boxing a lot clearer....yes Wilder can punch but cant box.....yes Fury can box but cant punch.....and yes Joshua can box a bit and punch a bit...........but its not painting by numbers if you think Fury couldnt
-
I remember saying to the gyppo and wannabe gyppos on here years ago that Fury needed to get himself a proper trainer....but no they knew best....." he,s a born warrior from a fighting family they dont need anybody theres nothing they dont know about the fight game " they would say

I think Mink are really interesting animals im always keeping an eye out for them but no such luck as yet.

My littluns coming up 5... every ride we came to he,s shouting " Yessssss " and im shouting " Noooooo " The daughter bailed me out on most ?

I took the grandson to Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park yesterday £9 for a can of Heineken poured into a plastic cup !! Im not a tight fisted person but this place was taking the piss.....£34.50 for 3 burgers and 3 cokes ?.....they can go on their own next year !
-
I agree with that.....the good old British pub for many years has been for many people the focal point of communities ive only been drinking alcohol a few years but i was always in or around pubs as its a good traditional old society thing we do as Brits.......so you get a few drunks and alcoholics here and there so what....personally i think its a tragedy the amount of pubs closing down its just another attack on British tradition and culture in my opinion.
-
Fury hasnt beaten a top opponent in 5 years and only 1 in his entire career.....he should need to do a lot more than just beat Wilder to warrant a payday with Joshua !
-
They came along giving us the " one of your own " ....." raised on the manor "......" bleed claret and blue " caper......which as someone whos done ok in business myself didnt really wash but i could see the pitch was a good one and i for one backed them 100%.............the minute they mentioned the move i knew time was up. These are old men leaving heirlooms....one of them virtually told me as much !
-
Oh ok i avoid West Ham forums ? No your right the proofs in the pudding non league football across East London and Essex ( probably a lot of other places too ) is seeing a resurgence....and naturally more investment is coming in at that level....its just about the ONLY benefit to moves like West Hams.
-
Wilf im sorry ive got to ask you this as your doing my f****n swede in now ? Why on earth did you want to move to a big ground and become a big club attracting big players that will take us to the next level......if you now want everything we already had at the old place ?
-
LIke we used to in the good old days you mean ?
