Were being linked with striker after striker, I would rather see us try to bring in wingers, let's face it were not going to get a better striker than the ones we have. Get carlton back and aim for wingers



28 Aug 2015 19:41:05
Am least we'll have the best stadium in the championship



28 Aug 2015 20:58:33
But it will be virtually empty!



28 Aug 2015 19:24:05
Ironmike! Austin still there . Although I'm not feeling like a late move will happen .



28 Aug 2015 19:58:49
rich there is a chance now at this stage if the window, he may stay at qpr, , you have to consider that outcome now, as it is becoming areal possibility, I thought that someone would try a sneaky bid for him , but no , nothing at all,at this moment in time?? IRONMIKE

How interesting, Austin, Hernandez, Zaza, Sow, Jimenez, Burak, Moses, Matri, Campbell, Slimani, etc etc etc were we ever interested?
Now Barton, a dead cert, is at Turf Moor, Song is back at BFC and linked with so many clubs.We have been turned down by so pretty poor standard players, Maiga is on the run, Sakho soon will be.Valencia obviously wants away. Sick note may play a few games, Zarate will be a fixture in the squad.Never fear we have a player who is not good enough for the spurs squad to the rescue. All in all a good summers work, when you also take into account that we struggled against the might of Andorra and Malta before losing to another crack European outfit.
BFS is laughing at us in the media
what could be worse
Do Board members and their families really think the people who generate their profits (the Boleyn Site)are totally stupid. Yes DGS love the club but you need to multiply that by 30000 and you may get some idea of the feelings of people who do not see football solely as a business, they need to understand and show some respect to those who see West Ham United as more important than life (sorry Shanks).David S, little David and Junior need to respond honestly or keep stum

Think the whole lot you mention above were just a smoke screen to deflect away from the current position and that is, that there is no more money.
All of us would just like the truth not lies and false promises, we are 3 or 4 players short of last seasons 1st team squad, DGS how the hell are we going to cope?



28 Aug 2015 23:19:13
You say we have no more money, well where is our money as all I can see is other clubs spending more than us and they are smaller clubs ( or so we think)' palace, Norwich, etc etc, complete joke nothing but a good hammering at Liverpool tomorrow, owners don't give a shit



29 Aug 2015 03:39:40
I am sure you appreciate Honky that there is only so much you can borrow. Also other clubs are probably better run and don't have players on ridiculously long contracts on fortunes. I know it isn't his fault, and I am not blaming him because we would all earn as much as possible but, Andy Carroll is on £90,000 a week, Nolan was on £50,000. Teams like Norwich have their top players earning half that, so that is where the money goes.



28 Aug 2015 18:55:25
Is there any reason that dgs won't put 6-7 mill for joel campbell its worth a punt and not that bad considering his ages and where he can pay likelihood is they would be able to recoup most if not all of that if things went sour?



28 Aug 2015 21:07:51
Yes there is a hue reason, there is no more money to spend!



28 Aug 2015 18:52:13
Goodness me, more people came to London when the Black Plague was about than they do to westham.

Ok guys shout me down but at this point I think we should bring Defoe back, yes it's short term but the boy is and always been prolific. We're not moving forward this window, so let's make sure we get goals.

The wide player issue, i'm totally flabbergasted, and not got the strength to go into how incompetent the dgs have handled this.

Any shouts for Defoe even though short term this season and use as a back up next when /if we get ourselves straight



28 Aug 2015 19:23:33
Totally agree but we've had all summer so nithing will happen now. It will be ac and zarate



28 Aug 2015 18:11:52
Hi hammers .as I said the other day dgs have got form for going for players that don't want to come or players we can't afford . Just to make it look good to us fans . But I think I can speak on all our behalf. DGS we've had enough now for crying out loud. Show us AMBITION .mike hammer.



28 Aug 2015 15:13:55
In anothe piece of top PR by our chairman he's now said basically that they wanted benitez as our manager and he was 3 hours away from joining

Bilic must be feeling great now a squad that isn't good enough 2 depressing home defeats not money to spend and now the chairman saying well really you were our 2nd choice



28 Aug 2015 16:37:22
ROB, look at it the other way around as well, Benitez, must be saying " their but for the grace of The Lord go I ", he escaped by minutes from being west ham manager! IRONMIKE



28 Aug 2015 17:04:08
Haha true enough mike



28 Aug 2015 12:28:04
This may be an unpopular opinion, but Carlton Cole back in the Claret and Blue, with Payet supplying, surely we could do worse!



28 Aug 2015 12:03:31
Although I think this whole period smacks of penny-pinching and I don't like Adebayor's attitude long term, it may not be such a bad thing in the short term.
In the past he has turned it on for the first few matches at a new club and he is almost unplayable when he does.
During that period, perhaps we can get Carroll properly fit instead of throwing him in too early only to break down again. Get Sakho fit in body (and mind?) and Valencia fit again. May carry us through to January OK when, maybe, we can look again.
I think Song is a waste of time. He went right off last season. I would like to see Poyet persevered with.



28 Aug 2015 17:47:54
I can't see him signing though, Levi is going to leave things to the last minute, then stick 2 fingers up and say had you again, mugs!



28 Aug 2015 10:25:26
I wouldn't do spurs a favour. We take one of there rejects, so they can go get a better player. At Xmas last season levy wouldn't let us sign adeboyor. I wouldn't do the **** any favours



28 Aug 2015 11:29:44
Couldn't agree more it's not like we are even going to get anyone decent just an overpaid lazy has been



28 Aug 2015 11:55:47
Hii Todd, I understand where you are coming from BUT, in this case wh are desperate for A striker of some kind wh loan money goes back to adebayor to wind up his contract there, IF and it's avery big If adebayor gets 15/20 goals this season, THAT won't be doing spurs any favours, as it's likely to raise wh league position, and he's free to sign again the following season IF he is a success , all BIG IFS, but that's why I personally don't concern myself, with a players history too much only their ability, regards IRONMIKE



28 Aug 2015 12:31:02
I agree Todd, and frankly its embarrassing, they messed us about last min in the last window Levy knew what he was doing, and took the p*** out if WH especially the board out if revenge for the OS.

If the DGS had any pride other than counting how much they have in there piggy bank, they should let this run and pay the money for Yilmaz even if it cost a 2m euro more, and than turn around and say thanks Levy but no thanks, and let them be stuck with a £100g a week player



28 Aug 2015 12:32:07
Ironmike, any updates please it really getting desperate, any news on anyone especially a striker other than the 2 in question and more importantly in my view wide players

Morning All

Have just read a media outlet ES, interview with Sullivan concerning Big Sam and Bilic, concerning Bilic he says and I quote, obviously from the interview its self?

Ready for this

" We will support him in the transfer market we like him"

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah, that's a good one, move over Lee Evans, Frankie Boyle, Michael Mcintrye,

At a comedy club near you, David Sullivan!!!



28 Aug 2015 10:24:15
This could be a best seller. He is full of his own self importance and a joker
