  1. Whats all this about ....not sure where you got that from Stan.......but where the f**k is Kings Lynn ? You have got no idea how much I laughed picturing your face when you read that ...sorry youngster ...but simple things amuse simple people and all that . Must admit i skipped over a lot of the thread so maybe ive missed something.....or is it really as simple as that..........dont tell me i,ll live in ignorance.
  2. They shot 14 people dead because football is " anti Muslim " .....how the f**k does that work then.
  3. Thats right i remember you telling me now......nothing wrong with Preston mate we had our hands full plenty of times with some of them little northern mobs obviously Man Utd were the best outfit simply down to their numbers but lots of them little mobs up there had good followings Burnley i remember were a tasty oufit,Sheff Utd,Forest.....they were enjoyable days mate nothing to be ashamed of just young lads having a laugh it was a culture we all bought into.
  4. I knew Tucker through the boxing,Tate i met once or twice but didnt really know,Rolfe i never clapped eyes on him or even knew who he was.
  5. I never took to him if im honest
  6. Im sorry if ive asked you this before mate but whos your team again ?.........ive spoke to a number of chaps off here who knew the score back then there was things that were acceptable and things that were not.....otherwise what was stopping us raping and pillaging entire communities ? i mean scum is scum right why stop at fighting ! Clearly theres a few who didnt know the score......why they would have such a fascination in something they wasnt into is a bit of a mystery but such is life.
  7. Is that a Bonzo quote ?
  8. ....yes because i wish my team had beaten Everton to finish 17th instead of beating Man Utd to possibly qualify for Europe ! I cant be arsed trawling through any more of this sillyness.....its not my job to try and work out if your completely doolally or just have a mad irrational sporting hatred and jealousy of East London.....whatever it is its bloody funny.
  9. Whats all this about ....not sure where you got that from Stan.......but where the f**k is Kings Lynn ?
  10. This is not directed just at you bracken boy but theres a lot been said of this incident....and a lot that hasnt been said. Myself and other likeminded pals of mine who ive been going to football with for years were just hanging about chatting in the car park when all this business started......anyone who knows Upton Park will tell you its about 100 yards from the Bobby Moore statue ( where the incident started ) to the gates the players coach go,s through........apart from the fact that everybody knew there was going to be trouble ( so why didnt football intelligence/police ) nobody was
  11. I never get into tactical debates as having never played the game i dont feel my knowledge is up to much......but i thought we just out hustled Utd.....we just wanted it more......i dont think we out played them and at times yes we probably did lump it forward but knowing you are not as good as the other team surely causes for such action occasionally......when we went a goal down i fully expected it to end up an embarrassment but like i say i think we just wanted it more i was so proud of the club from the players to the owners to the tea lady we showed a commitment and will to win that any i
  12. Is this more of your " education " ?....some of us were around that scene back then,the same scene that you by your own admission didnt want anything to do with .....so im now going to educate you. I believe the game you are referring to was the 6 nil pasting we got at Roker Park around 1978 ?......ok,the reason this incident was in YOUR local newspapers was because a handful of Sunderland fans were arrested after chasing some West Ham fans back to their coach and a young boy fell and broke his ankle plus a few others had various cuts and bruises. What you fail to say in your claims Ma
  13. Before " educating " people its probably better to learn the facts.......with a 34,000 ground sold out every week and a season ticket waiting list of 17 - 20k over the last 4 years what would be so surprising about 52k season tickets being sold straight away....." tourists " dont by season tickets.
  14. In truth.......did you think it was for your benefit or something ?....some random northerner watching on the telly. It was for local West Ham fans with West Ham traditions.........we have our own iconic players and our own iconic songs and traditions that are known and respected the world over....what iconic traditions does your club have ? Im no fan of the Cockney Rejects i think its a horrible f****n racket but they go hand in hand with West Ham what should we of had Fun Boy Three singing out a rendition of " It aint what you do its the way that you do it " instead ? We had the
  15. It's sport cushty friends don't come into it or shouldn't ...if that was the case there wouldent be a Olympics as a lot of them are buddy's off the feild. Can you imagine if friends stopped fighting each other.......half the British title fights over the past 50 years would never of been made !
  16. Well its been a very emotional few days me and some pals have just got back from a little break of sobbing our hearts out and comforting each other .....still cant get my head round the fact that we,ll never spend a saturday down the Hammers ever again i wouldnt expect folk to understand but its a horrible empty feeling for a bunch of lads who grew up on West Ham.....anyway fantastic result,probably one of the best atmospheres ive ever been in it was a fitting end that made us all proud. Having just seen the first half dozen pages of this thread i can see the usual obssessed soppy nuts is
  17. Just been looking on some of these youtube things the last few days theres some good stuff on there. I like this one.....when ol man Gardiner says " its crap here....but its our crap ".......so true........any Hammer of our generation knows Bill he is probably the only man in my life i have ever been frightened of he was like the evil step father to us teenagers back then you just didnt want to let him down and went that extra mile just to get that encouraging wink or pat on the back from him......today he would be seen as scum but he was someone we all looked up to and stood us in good st
  18. Just another little example of the pain this is causing some of us ol boys......anyway im off for a few days convalescing with my family pack of Kleenex https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAsyGA5-a-g
  19. Hopefully it's something like a mild infection or something similar.hope you get it under control mate. No idea as I don't feel to bad in myself. This morning it was down to 131/72 so not too high. Little ups and downs are nothing to worry about our bp can swing for all different reasons.......its when its high for long periods of time that problems develop.
  20. Folk dont like to admit it but i think a lot of people hate to see a little paki kid doing so well and driving a flash car etc........im no saint when it comes to prejudice against foreigners but thats whats so great about sport i just dont see colour/race......i remember the wars we had around my area with the blacks it was a dangerous place to knock about but once inside the gym we were totally together and just wanted to help each other reach our dreams...........it takes some of us years and years to really appreciate the value of sport.
  21. Just for those who dont get why we dont want to leave Upton Park have a little listen to my ol mucker Gary we are the same generation been seeing each other at football for 35 years and completely understands the club and the people......and theres thousands more just like us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhujOZzwLfU
  22. Equinox........come out the Hippodrome into Leicester Square and it was between Napoleons Casino and the Empire. Yeah thats the one. Some nice ladies in there Some damn good looking door staff around the early 90,s as well
  23. As a horrible little young juvenile offender i managed to cop the nickname Fletch as the show Porridge had just come out I think we,ve all known a few " Triggers " " Delboys " etc
  24. Funny enough i dont no......fans from Hatfield fans from strange islands in the middle of nowhere..........i wonder if theres any Arsenal fans in London
  25. Equinox........come out the Hippodrome into Leicester Square and it was between Napoleons Casino and the Empire.
