BBC suggesting we're back in for Charlie Cresswell?
Looks like Victor is gone to Forest. Was he registered before midday and if so what are the odd on him keeping a clean sheet and getting an assist?

Bloody good job, Sullivan in reality insulted Botafogo John Victor, and his agent, they had bought air tickets, paid for Hotel etc in advance, they were left in limbo, then let down, WH went ahead with no hands, tbh disgraceful behaviour from a premiership club,
I hope Victor plays well, and gets up Sullivans nose, now we are after a THIRD goalkeeper, because Potter doesn’t know, a good GK if he fell over one
20 Aug 2025 22:05:59
Rowe apparently a Salthouse client. Yes Bologna have agreed terms with player. But?
Seems unlikely as he's a winger and Potter doesn't play wingers. Not even when he has one of the best in the world already at his disposal. Maybe we should buy Rowe anyway and play him as an 8. At least when GP falls out of favour we'd have 4 exciting wide players for the inevitable replacement.

WH left it too late Rowe will sign tomorrow or Weekend, WH are slow on the uptake in general

More phantom bids, Sterling and Brownhill to rock up Friday morning, too late for the evening home game and too late on their careers to do anything but warm the bench. More wasted wages and "PSR worries" indefinitely.
Prove me wrong Sully and I may buy an away shirt this season (not touching the hearts kit)
1.) 18 Aug 2025 20:02:35
OMG Sterling say it ain’t so
2.) 18 Aug 2025 20:14:33
Can't afford Sterling's wages and he is far to attack minded for Potter. Also there is no place for him in a 532 formation.
3.) 18 Aug 2025 20:31:18
Sterling is on 325 k a week, if Sullivan didn’t want to make a deal for Grealish he’s not making one for Sterling, maybe if Chelsea want to subsidise by 250 k a week, but that’s not happening
4.) 18 Aug 2025 23:26:25
Maybe what the loans are for.
DS loves a big name, high wages and a supposed bargain.
If Chelsea pay half the wages he'll bite their hands off and Potter will receive a parting gift.

Normal service resumed, 2 strikers and Bowen on the pitch, 0 shots on target in the second half.
06 Jan 2026 18:56:48
Poor team selection again, what does Summerville do to justify his place?
Soucek and Fernandes will be overrun in midfield, defense still looks extremely lightweight.
29 Sep 2025 22:44:24
Imagine if Nuno had had a week to work with the players and not 2 days.
The owners had written off 3 points and will crow about earning 1.
We could have had 3.
Now imagine if Brady hadn't convinced Sullivan to keep Potter on long term and we'd had a Professional for preseason and the opening 5 games.
BS OUT
15 Sep 2025 17:21:19
Why is Potter still in the job?
1.) 15 Sep 2025 17:53:35
Because we are West Ham and Sullivan is very reluctant to pay off a manager. Having said that, I was convinced there wouldn’t be a change of manager before a possible change in the boardroom. I’m now hearing Sullivan may replace Potter with Nuno as a futile attempt at appeasing the fanbase. Who knows? Watch this space.

Looking like Amorim will be available on a free tomorrow.
1.) 27 Aug 2025 21:30:51
He’s got a worse win rate than potter ?
2.) 27 Aug 2025 21:55:42
And plays the same stupid wing back system
3.) 27 Aug 2025 22:08:27
Not quite his win rate is 35.5% at Manure, Potter's is 22.73%
4.) 27 Aug 2025 22:25:52
Gerry, Amorims premier league record is 25%, potters is 28.5%
5.) 28 Aug 2025 07:38:42
We all know if Potters sacked we will get dyche the board won't go for anyone exciting we will just carrying on with cycle of trying to survive, plus amoron uses the same formation that has failed for the last 10 months under potter would be another clueless appointment
6.) 28 Aug 2025 08:17:50
Stevie66 I was talking about all games. Regards
7.) 28 Aug 2025 10:04:42
Don’t lose faith lads. Sullivan hasn’t tried coaching yet. He might sack Potter and try it himself. He probably believes he’s got what it takes. This time next month, our team could be kitted out with topless outfits and crotchless shorts!
8.) 28 Aug 2025 11:03:51
TL that is actually very funny, nothing can make JWP run even slower than chaffing of the crotch! ????

More like Sullivan offering him around hoping for the highest bid which he can pocket, while implying the player wants to leave so he doesn't get the blame when he does inevitably end up at Spuds.
12 Jan 2026 16:20:39
If we can convince anyone above us to take JWP we should continue to pay his wages as it could be our best/only hope of staying up. His backwards and sideways passing is sure to result in goals.
Conceded
09 Jan 2026 15:56:19
Surely there's another club out there, who pay something similar to the inflated prices Sullivan is always willing to pay? Man Utd for example.
07 Jan 2026 10:23:12
He was barely able to play 90 mins once a week.
06 Jan 2026 19:07:57
Considering the money we've just found down the back of the sofa. A proven premier league goal scorer may have been a better option than the 2 inflated price gambles we've just taken, especially considering "super" NES will be gone at the end of the season. if not the end of the month.

Fernandes, Potts, Magassa, Kante, Soucek, Earthy, Orford, Fearon, Irving, Rodriguez.
JWP earns more than any of these yet contributes less, even when he has played. They are all ahead of him in the pecking order while some have gone on loan to get minutes, he's sat around picking up a fortune, living off past glories.
There's no debate here, if he wants to play let his bank balance take a hit and accept a move. He doesn't get near the bench because we have plenty of better options.
If he really was disrespectful to Nuno when at Wolves, and clearly something went on there, then he's hardly the model player to have affecting the psychology around the 1st team.
18 Jan 2026 16:28:30
No, playing backwards passes you should have 100% completion. You're utterly misguided on so many things. If he wanted 1st team football he'd take a pay cut and move. Potter built his team around JWP and it was awful. As Elsa says "LET IT GO."
12 Jan 2026 16:25:23
Also assuming we hold on to our "Premier League quality" ??? players
11 Jan 2026 18:14:25
1 - 1 at home after 90 mins Vs a mid table championship team, this is our level. Any of our players who think to move on in the summer should seriously look at themselves and ask "Am I good enough for ANY top 5 league? " .
The answer is clearly NO.
06 Jan 2026 23:03:17
Summerville ran into (another) dead end ball deflected to Taty who was offside. Areola nowhere near the ball takes the man.
