    I wonder if Curbs had held his nerve and told the board "We keep Parker or i go" where would be today.
    Curbs wanted the money from the Parker sale to take the club to the next level. He was heard to say this at the players xmas party held in a Blackheath bar.
  • Well we are at the next level now.

    Listening to the essex doughnuts (not OoohAaah) on the radio is brilliant.

    "With due respect to Charlton...."x 200

    Hahaha bunch of mugs.
  • What a strange thread.

    I dont really think we are in much of a position to take the piss.

    The job he has done there over the last year is nothing short of incredible, West Ham fans need to have a word with themselves, winning at Arsenal, 3 wins on the spin v Man Utd....

    What a state they are in.
  • They just have a warped sense of expectation.

    Bit like us really. ;o)
  • WSSWSS

    Exactly, how can we take the pee out of their fans when we had exactly the same reaction for the past 5/6 years once we got to 40 points?!

    Poor Curbs though - he is on a hiding to nothing there.
  • i think our recent record at anfield is much better than west ham's
  • what about recent record against Man U?
  • keep that one quiet...
  • "West Ham's own fans started to chant for an extra striker, declared their own side "boring" and subjected Alan Curbishley's men to chants of: "It's just like watching Charlton."

    LOL!!
  • "Just like watching Charlton"? Except we quite regularly spanked WHU by similar scorelines. The cheek!

    Story in The Observer today suggesting that West Ham are looking for a replacement.
    Denied by a spokesperson - as these things always are - but a bad situation that someone is obviously briefing against him.
    Oh, and apparently he almost fell out with Matthew Upson before he'd even signed him...

    Curbishley faces axe as alarm grows over hammerings

  • Notwithstanding the tedium of our final years in the Prem League (which, regardless of the manager, is inevitable for a club our size if we are to stay there for any length of time), would anyone on here have Curbs back right now if the opportunity arose?

    Absolutely 100% no,
  • The "never go back" principle is a good one (and can't imagine for a moment that Curbs would agree to come back) but if your aim is promotion, or at least a highly competitive CCC team that plays reasonably attractive football (as we did more often than not in the pre-PL years) then Curbs has got to be on the short list hasn't he? I can't remember in those days many displays quite as inept as yesterday's (or a few others I could mention this year).
  • curbs all day long , i'd even take dowie at the moment bob or iain ... if dowie had stayed would we be worse off than now???
  • Yes, I think what he did at Coventry prooves that.
  • imo i don't think dowie was given enough time at charlton or coventry for that matter
  • Surely that fact it's happend twice should tell you maybe it's not just about his managment?

    Thanks, but no thanks.

  • Anyway back to the original intention of this thread:

    I would
  • I would not wish anyone out of work but maybe Curbs on the sidelines would be the sort of pressure that Pardew might respond well too.

    Would be extremely surprised if Curbs ever wanted to tread that path again though.

    Mind you with Murray taking more of a role in the Football side you never know.......

    I would have him back tomorrow
  • i wonder if pardew would go back tomorrow if asked.

  • Curbs has done his time here, I wish him well, but it's too soon for him to come back.
