  1. Depends how match you care about the football I suppose mate. After all, Sunderland won a cup once…..who wants to be them ?
  2. I think the lad has had a rough old time of it mate and it’s been pretty nasty to watch…..that said, some of his defending is absolutely schoolboy ! Mistakes so basic it’s unbelievable. I personally don’t think he should have stayed in England, he needed a clean slate……what he will get with us is a shit load of relentless pressure week in, week out. Its not a bad signing but it’s definitely not a positive signing, if it gos right everyone will be like “fantastic, great stuff” but if it’s gos wrong it will be absolutely terrible for all concerned. I think the lad has real gu
  3. Have you ever played lone striker in a low block team mate ?……
  4. Of course they are, but again, I don’t see what that has to do with the state of play and what how they play and what gets rewarded means for the club going forward. Last season I thought we played really well against some really good teams in Europe loosing out at the death but in a way that I’m sure had anyone who knows what they are looking at saying “yeah, fair enough, bad luck boys” This season we played f***ing terrible against terrible teams and won the final (and lost 20 league games in the process) We lost the player of a generation and are back to signing 30 year olds
  5. Not once have I complained about winning a trophy, I complained about the ongoing shit state of our football under Moyes. I know you didn’t suggest I did but I’m just making that clear to everyone. Football reality !
  6. With the greatest of respect mate, and I genuinely mean that…..but one thing has got f**k all to do with the other ! Winning a trophy playing, if we are honest, mostly shit teams whilst playing equally as shit football may be a cause for celebration but it don’t make our football any good. Celebrate by all means but let’s not call a ham Sandwhich a steak dinner a ? I may be out of touch with “real fans” but I know what a game of football looks like. Some lads just watch for the entertainment and that’s fine, I don’t begrudge them that….most of them wouldn’t know a low bloc
  7. Jmho mate, but I think it’s more complicated than “won’t pay the asking prices”…….we spend 180 million last season or whatever it was, so it’s not that. No, this is always where we were going to end up with Moyes…..I just genuinely think it’s a combination of players don’t want to play that shite type of football and now that new bloke has come in, he knows it’s shite as well and won’t back buying players who suit that type of football. Moyes “did well” at Everton because he was allowed to be mediocre in a team and a club where that was the ethic. Every other team he has made wo
  8. I just watched that mate, I needed to watch some class stuff after the clown shoes turnout my little Hammers served up yesterday ! Lol Rice is going to thrive in that team, already you can see he has license to get forward and put all his tools to work…….him and that Partie look like they have the makings of a proper partnership. 1 game, 1 trophy ! Good for him.
  9. I watched the pre season game against Leverkusen yesterday !……Jesus Christ ! Lol Fair play to David Moyes…..he can really improve a team…..yesterday was proof because he made Bayer Leverkusen look like Real Madrid ! Lol It was our full, strongest line up out there and Leverkusen just picked us apart at will…..they played through us, round us, over us. They just wouldn’t let us have the ball, they played in our half (obviously !) as we sat in that constantly dropping block…..it was so easy for them it was ridiculous. We made Xhaka look like the love child of Paul Scholes &
  10. Ward Prowse is about 29 isn’t he mate ?……I think it’s a load of bollocks anyway, we offered like 25 million or something ! Lol They will never take 25 million, but even if they did, not exactly world changing is it?…..a 29 year old No.10 who played in a side that got smashed to pieces every week last season ? Yeah, f**k me, cant wait ! Lol lol We just add Harry McGuire and bring David James out of retirement, replace bubbles with the theme from Benny Hill and the jobs a good un! Lol I think you are being pretty upbeat and fair play to you, because it’s a total f***ing mess !
  11. And, surprise, surprise!!…..played him further forward mate, left side of a mid field 3. Now, I’m not one to say I told you so….but……. Lol ?
  12. I think @NEWKID hit the nail on the head when he said any players we buy will be Moyse players……in fact I thought I heard Mourane Fellaini packing his suitcase ? But I think that new lad we have just bought in from Leverkusen knows that will be a shit brand of football type player and it’s definitely not how you are going to be able to compete in that league, so consequently, f**k all is happening ! As I said before mate, I think we can ignore the prices, we have to…..prices will be whatever they are, it’s the style and the ethic of play that will still count.
  13. I have been saying for a few years now that I’d like to see us think right outside the box……personally I’d love to see a coach like Klopps No.2 Pep Linjers or something along those lines. Germany, Holland, Spain are alive with young coaches who know how to do things right and want to play proper football…..it’s a benefit of investing in their coaching pathways and we are seeing the payback in that in the premier league. We have all been marvelling at it for the last 5 years ! So, for me, it’s not so much the “who” are you getting but the “what” are you getting that matters more.
  14. West Ham…….nobody does tuppence Ha’penny quiet like us ! Amazing !
  15. The numbers don’t stack up for meat birds, well chickens at least. My personal opinion was that the extra €5 to €8 per bird it costs to raise your own rather than just buy them out the supermarket was better spent on something with a better meat return. A free range chicken raised yourself will stand you in €12 to €18 by the time it’s dead in the oven….. when you can buy a large chicken ready done for €6 and you have never had to clean up its shite or deal with a Bird flu outbreak or indeed suffer any losses, it’s a no brainer imho For an example, I can buy a dairy bul
  16. One other tip, invest in some Valium for when you have to round up escaped piglets on a piss wet day…..or any day for that matter ! Lol
  17. This is the electric fence unit I use mate and they don’t mess with it. Will power upto about 20 acres if I remember correctly although my pigs were only kept on one of my fields of about an acre. But it did all my property for cattle as well, so at about €250-280 it will do anything the small holder needs and is a good investment.
  18. For the pigs, invest in some mains powered electric fence of the highest power you feel comfortable being around. It will do acres of property from wherever you mount it and again, I can’t stress enough, as high a shock delivery as you can get away with (big cow strength is ideal) If you don’t now, believe me, you will remember this post 6 months after you have them ! Lol Pigs will bulldoze everything including sheep wire like it’s made of cotton. All the best ?
  19. Khan made his living suing the British taxpayer for his 3rd world friends, all sorts of disgusting creeps and people who hate us……it’s well known and well documented and has been for years. He was also paid to do it by the British taxpayer because almost all of it was legal aid funded. The Far Left Conservative party also knew this……and upto now, they never said a f***ing word ! Why not ?……maybe because they are also part of the same betrayal? A very senior figure in the equally far left Labour Party, they didn’t have a problem with having such vermin in their fold !
  20. I lived in statics on our little farm in Kent when I was a kid. We still retained a house in London but out of the two the caravan was the place I’d rather be, it was magical and the best childhood a kid could have. I’d say, if a static means you can live in a decent place free of being a slave to banks and officials raiding your pocket, if it means your kids don’t have to live in a shithole town that is hell bent on entertaining and emulating the 3rd world…..then living in one is the very definition of sanity ?
  21. That is called social engineering and has been part of the ongoing war on the west and it’s family unit for at least the last 30 years.
  22. I have to say mate, I have had a bit of an epiphany about “clubs buying success” and stopped being hung up about it as so many fans are. I have come to the conclusion it breeds a “we can never succeed” mindset which has and has never had any place in football. I think the last few years with the massive improvement in coaching we have seen that it’s just not the case and the things that always mattered in football still matter. So, I am going to stop taking notice of the money and how much players cost and all that nonsense and instead think about how teams are setting themselves
  23. I don’t know all the whys and wherefores about FFP and neither in fact do I give a toss any more about prices of players or how much clubs spend…..Chelsea and PSG have proved how little meaning that can have. But I think the ASM situation is just a bit of cooking the books to meet FFP rather than a “maverick” player who wants away isn’t it ? Your owner would in fact still own the player, just at their other club….is that right ? So in theory, they could just loan him right back to you……and I hope they do, he is one of the few players who reminds me of Paulo (except faster ! Lol )
