West Ham's decided to have a banner today saying Fat Sam out.

First of all there season has not been that bad,
Secondly even if it had been bad you dont treat your manager that way,

Watched a game on tv a few week ago when they won and was booed of the pitch.

If I was him I would just walk away now

    Was talking to a West Ham fan last Saturday after their loss to palarse, and he was one of the most deluded prats I've ever met. He didn't think mid table was good enough, hated Big Sam and wanted Laudrup in charge. I just told him to be careful what he wishes for.

    When they move stadium, the entire demographic of their fanbase will shift towards tourists and seat fillers and they'll want to be entertained. I personally don't see Sam lasting much longer, which is wrong imo

    They have had a decent season, they are only a yo yo club after all.

    was looking on KUMB to see how they took the Roger Johnson thing(seems they thought it was funny)

    but I did see this:
    On a side note are Charlton becoming our outcast club? Henderson in goal, Tel Ben Haim and Johnson in defence and Diarra in midfield

    2 of them start today and Diarra on the bench

    this coming from the team who have had Konchesky, Parker and Defoe after us
    and currently have Jenkinson, Poyet and Cole

    I wish them nothing but relegation. Could they not take up athletics?

    I don't know, relegation combined with bankruptcy and the black death seems about right to me.

    I know the Defence has to take some of the blame but in our next two (Malta at least) we should be testing Butland or someone else in goal for England.

    10-goals (?) conceded by the No.1 England 'keeper is not the sort of form that should see him go to the World Cup!!

    Can I add a bit of porridge for Brady and the porn barons for their alleged tax evasion to the wish list please...

    And last week I finally gave my evidence to Mayor Khan's inquiry into the Olympic Stadium. Have signed a P&C regarding it, but think it's Ok to say I was happy with the questions they asked me. The net is tightening on the whole grubby deal and its proponents.

    It will be a good day when that all comes to fruition. And the irony is, playing there isn't good for them. I went to see them play Burnley in the night before Xmas last year. It's soulless as a football stadium

    I've also decided that should state aid be found to be proven, Boris Johnson, Karen Brady, gold and Sullivan should pay the taxpayer back £50m each. Seems the fairest way to reconcile

    Seems equitable. So I don't see why not.

    Funny, last night I was thinking of starting a thread on why people hate West Ham?

    I know we all have teams we despise but for me West Ham isn't one of them. If anything they may be the london team I might support, if I ever abdicated from Charlton (won't happen). In fact I did fleetingly toy with the idea of going to watch them last season because of the dire football being served up at the Valley.

    I grew up with Ron Greenwoods West Ham and Moore, Peters and Hurst. I think their ethos was to play attractive football, regardless of if they won or not and very often they didn't.

    I remember watching,I think it was, Inter City Fairs Cup Final against, was it, TSV 1860 Munich ( loved their name ) or Borussia Monchengladbach ( loved their name too ), the Hammers won 2-0. Of course I was only a kid, so very impressionable.

    As fans I think we all have elevated ideas about our team, I don't think we're any different.

    So why do you hate West Ham?

    They've changed from the time many Londoners had them as their second team. And I would say it's Brady and the pornographers who put the lid on it. It's only about money for them now.

    Because of their owners. When they go I won't mind them.

    They ain't any West Ham i know. I have Essex family steeped in supporting the Hammers, i would hope that they see through the dildo salesman but you never know i guess.

    West Ham pushing Chelski IMO for most despised ex London football club.
