Our clubs a bloody joke.
Am fed up of hearing of players we're in for that turn out to be lies or statements of non intent.
Am not a happy hammer and won't be until we sign so. some who's not:
A) unfit
B) can't get in the squad of a worst team.
C) over 30 years old and coming to the prem for a last season or 2 payoff.
We're west ham, we're better than that and we as the best supporters in in the land deserve better.
Rant over.

guys and gals. this is no joke when I say we need to start planning for the championship now cause that's where we are going



Yep serious times we were very poor today against Newcastle the defence looks shambolic and has done since reid got injured the midfield is ordinary at best they seem incapable of creating chances for the front men. cole bless his sole tries his best with what little he has to work with and carroll is probably still 4to5 weeks away from his best, time we just don't have so something has to change and quickly or we will go down.



Sorry but it is now too late in my mind I said earlier in a post that the only thing we will do is re-sign Cole, who I think is loyal and tries hard.

We should have got rid of Sam before the window opened we had a chance of giving Malky a chance when he knew Tan was after his blood he would have had an eye for strengthening the squad with new players to enhance the existing team.

We will go down unfortunately which will lead to a fire sale and the loss of our top players, income from this will be used to balance the books as we will loss the PL TV rights money.

I can only thank Gold, Sullivan and Sam for breaking the hearts of the most passionate fans in the country.

How can they do this to us.



Well said pal.

don't know about everyone else out there but I have just about had it and am fed up to the back teeth of this current west ham setup and the jokers that run it. I have been watching the current transfer window closely and I have seen players moving which we could easily have been in for. SHane Long, Jelavic, Bertrand but to name a few but nothing all pinned on traore/ What a farce.

APparently he didn't make the move because of a hamstring injury (and your telling me we never checked this out before hand).

I also wnna know who the hell is our scout cause he is useless.

And finally I've had it with the baord and in particular Alalrdyce.

Its day 17 of the transfer window and we have made our intentions pretty clear already by signing carlton cole to a further 18 month contrcat and bringing ni Johnson.

Is this really the standard of player any premier league team would find any use for at this level, especially when you consider the predicament we are in.

Nothing is going to change until the manager does because our transfer targets are all geared to play one style and that's sam;s style which quite simply does not work,

We had a fluke result against a poor cardiff side last week and week in week out we are outplayed especially at home.

Just take a look at what Hull have already done and even Grant Holt looked sharp tongith with imagination. We need a decent right back a centre backand a midfield that can create chances and hold on to the ball. above all else we need ot invest in a striker for the future who can get goals.

None of this can be done with the current manager still in place so something has got to be done and done now. Are the board so blind they cannot see what we fans can see.

Never mind "Not being a manager sacking board" and don't tell me its due to injuries because sam had the chance to prepare his suad in the close season



We have no youngsters coming through can't attract any decent players in the transfer windows.
all over 30 plus journey men looking for a last pay packet.
think it should be put to the daves back bfs with you ownership of the club if he takes us down put the club up for sale.



I for one will not be renewing my season ticket if we go down as to be honest I feel completely mugged off this season. what a complete waste of 800 pound of my hard earnt

what bothers me the most is the fact that time and time again we target players and we mess about for so long other teams beat us to it. what on earth is going on in the back ground to hold up transfer dealings.

If we had pulled our fingers out we could have had jelavic or shane long but we keep shifting targets all the time.

The latest of which is Lambert whoch drags on and on. For gods sake make a sensible bid and get the deal done and then focus on sorting our defence out
