Its funny with Moyse im not too fussed either way whether he stays or go's to be honest i think he's done a brilliant job getting all these " new fans " what they wanted
......but now having tasted a bit of European football,nicking a trophy and experiencing the things with your pals you dont think you'll ever experience as a West Ham fan i just feel a bit nonplussed about Moyse now.....as a club we gave up on everything we valued so to now make demands is a bit rich.
On the way home from the game last night i was listening to Talksport and they had at least 3 Everton fans phone in talking about the nights games and all of them said they'd have Moyse back in a heart beat....which when you think of where they've gone since he left them is probably understandable,they was actually taking the piss out of West Ham fans for wanting him gone,with a " who the f**k do they think they are " attitude,which i think is a shame as i always booked us quite similar good traditional old fashioned clubs.....going to tournaments with England over the years i always saw how other fans tended to like West Hams following we was seen as chirpy cockneys always good humoured but realistic about who and what our club is,now since moving grounds i think we're just seen as whingeing pricks who think we're something we're not.
Most chaps of my generation that have been following the club around over years feel the same its just not our club anymore.....Moyse gave us our little experience which we'll always be grateful for but beyond that i/we will just go with the flow now,we'll live and breathe the club and support them as always but hopes and aspirations are different now,again its not our club anymore so do with it what you will.....apologies for a late night ramble just bored out my mind and cant sleep !
It must of been a case of 'distance lends enchantment ' with the evertonians ,I don't know one efc supporter who was sad to see him go ,he is a shoulder shrug of a manager ,much like Hodgson or Fat Sam ,he will organise a team ,make them hard to beat ,keep them safe ,,BUT sacrifices ambition or risk ,and there is never attractive football without them ,in the end his negativity wears you down ,some managers make you dream ,he just puts you to sleep .

Tyson Fury is a clown.... It wasn't so long ago that he was telling anyone who would listen that he would fight this one and that one for nothing which he didn't and now he won't fight outside of Saudi where the big bucks lie ....
That still doesn't change the fact that there are 49million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5million people in Uruguay which means if the kangaroos were to invade Uruguay, each person will have to fight 14 kangaroos.
What percentage of kangaroos are of a fighting age though ,would the invasion be by air or sea ?either way the logistics of getting millions of kangaroos from Australia to Uruguay on the same day would be mind boggling also how proficient can kangaroos be with modern firearms bearing in mind their lack of opposable thumbs ...I don't think such a scenario is possible ,,,but then again Fury has made a living from boxing so anything is possible

I am watching the EFL cup final and bind it bizzarre that Jamie Carragher is doing the live commentary on a Liverpool game. I am not bothered about unbias, not as though he refereeing, I find all this over analysis of a game as it is being played sucks the energy out of it anyway and usually try and find a foreign channel stream with only 1 commentator. What puzzles me is why Carragher would want to do it? No doubt he is being handsomely paid but I am sure he would manage to pay this month's energy bills without working today. Why would he not prefer to enjoy the match away from a camera or a mic and properly support the club he loves?
I just wish he would shut up ,he's an annoying tit ...

Mum done me a goat curry last week, was bloody lovely, her best friend when we lived in Bristol was Jamaican and we ate a lot of Caribbean food, she still cooks some of the recipes, goat curry is one of my favourites though.
Curried goat ...your welcome .

I enjoyed his ramblings and his eccentricities ,an intelligent fella who can draw you in with an attractive writing style ,but as time went on the grossness and seedyness of some of his posts grated on me .

If you're on about who i think then the " lad " is 61
....just won the amateur Grand Seniors out in Malaysia i believe it was.....good luck to him he's been around a long time,the amateur game is very much different to the pros as it go's on age/weight categories,different rules and formats etc but respectable achievement nonetheless.......most of our generation first got into arm wrestling after the Stallone film Over the Top came out,if i remember right Dan actually competed in the qualifying rounds of that competition which shows how long he's been at it.
That's the lad , as I said talented violinist ,and I often wondered if that had much to do with his success .

Don't know much about arm wrestling ,but there is a local lad who has just won a world title ,not for the first time either ,and hardly anyone knows he does it ,he's better known for being a decent fiddle \violin player

If you aspire to the upper middle class then one should take it as a given that employing domestic help from the lower classes will result in the mess you describe ,one should only employ staff from accredited agencies that specialise in supplying trained operatives an fait with the wants and needs of genteel folk .

Thats a brilliant shout that is mate.....what a match up,ive spoken to a lot of people about this over the years......it would have been an absolutely brutal affair for sure and putting era's/conditioning etc aside i think like was touched on earlier Joe's work rate,determination and willingness to go to dark places would of probably seen him outlast the Rock.......whats your view ? or anyone elses.
I don't usually play that game ,but what a mouth watering fight ,couldn't for the life of me pick a winner but I'm pretty sure it would be life changing to watch .

I admire Ali as much as anyone ,but I just don't get his elevation to sainthood status , like all of us he was flawed ..The nation of Islam in which he was a minister was an anti white organisation ,so much so that it could be considered their sole reason for existing ,( check out their explanation for the origins of the white race )Ali bought into this 100% ,when his "friend " Malcolm x left the nation to join main stream Islam Ali turned his back on him ,he never ,ever mentioned the Vietnam war until after his draft , his "principles "often coincided with what was beneficial to him ,he had a nasty side (maybe not a fault in a fighter ,but if your going to grant him sainthood )that showed itself particularly with Patterson ,Frasier and especially the "what's my name " fight that he purposely dragged out ,I could go on and on ,but it just shows the man was human ,greatest heavyweight ever ,charismatic ,entertaining ,interesting ,but human and certainly no candidate for sainthood or the veneration that is bestowed on him nowadays ...God bless Ali rip
