    I have an unashamed soft spot for West Ham fans (if not the club). They look bang in trouble and their older fans believe the are going down. Huge protest planned this weekend against Gold, Sullivan and Brady. "Bubbles" lays it out here...

    I went with my mate to West Ham vs Burnley a few years back when they all kicked off and were fighting each other in the stands and running on the pitch, great fun watching the morons fight their own

    So much hubris there at that club. The fans allowed the club to lie to them, showed them totally inaccurate computer-generated images of the supposed view from their seat. They all thought that great players would be beating a path to the great stadium. It's the ownership that no-one likes and whilst fans can carry on coming to championship games the egos that will be bruised will be the leadership, and that's why we want them to go down.

    It's meant to be shit at the new ground and I probably wouldn't bother with going there with Charlton but West Ham are still getting 59,000+ attendances. If they get relegated and attendances drop significantly, they'll still be getting the biggest crowds in The Championship.

    How many of those 59,000 are actually West Ham fans and how many of them (including the West Ham fans) would bother going to a soulless, half-empty ground to watch Championship football?

    You can say that about our gates with our ticket offers and hand outs ..

    They'll have at least twice as many home fans as us next season and prolly nearer 3 times as many

    You can't really accuse our ground of being soulless.
    If they go down I suspect that they would lose a huge chunk of the current season ticket holders. They would probably sell season tickets and match by match tickets dirt cheap to try to fill the ground with floating supporters, which will make the atmosphere even worse.

    West Ham are miles bigger than us.  Just don't like them due to what i have previously stated in this thread.

    Getting relegated and the subsequent clear out that would ensue, would probably help Lady Brady and the Jizz magnates anyway.

    Fuck em.

    Charlton won the world cup! Two players called Charlton and the captain was a Charlton supporter!

    Disappointing result today. I was expecting more from Southampton. Still all to play for though.

    Glad to see them lose yesterday, if only narrowly.
    Next three games look very tough though, with Wolves at home, Spurs away and Chelsea at home.
    I hope to see them in the drop zone after those games.

    Palace have scored a goal
    Millwall relegation watch.

    How they must all envy our promotion chasing goal machine.

    I see Brady is in favour of making this season null & void. What a surprise.

    Henry Winter's headline in his article on her statement in today's The Times sums it up rather well:

    "Desperate time calls for unity not Brady's venal self interest"

    But our venal self interest coincides with hers so boo to Henry Winter.

    We have the same interest indeed but, hopefully, not above everything else and certainly not trying to use to influence, in a time when there are more important things than football, a newspaper column, as a Member of the House of Lords or Club Executive to decision making. As Klopp, who stands to lose winning the PL title, said "football is the most important of the least important things".

    And if she cannot take a leaf out of Klopp's book she could listen to her captain, Mark Noble, who came out and stated as much when he said "Put you and your loved ones' health first and do not take any unnecessary risks and we can return to football at the right time".

    Ms Brady, you will never ever be able to buy class. You either have it or you don't. And you simply don't.

    To be fair, Brady's comments while showing blatant self interest aren't inconsistent with those of Mark Noble, as she's not talking about returning to football, but rather what to do when we don't return to football.

    I'm sure the Norwich and Villa owners behind closed doors are saying the same thing

    And that is the point. We will be doing the same. But that is different from using a newspaper article as she did to influence matters and use it as propaganda in a pathetic attempt to win fans, that hate her and her cohorts, over.

    A great restart for West Ham's campaign. A point or three for Bournemouth this evening against the Stripey Nigels and West Ham drop into the drop zone.
    Spurs and Chelsea up next for them.

    Not to mention a Manager like Moyes who has to motivate a side that he didn't put together and without the aid of a crowd behind them - home or away. One win in their last 11 matches says it all.

    Moyes? I thought winning is what he does?

    Must be thinking of someone else.
