I think it's a pretty damning fact that as football teams around the world were tearing down their municipal athletics stadiums to build a proper football stadium modelled on the atmosphere of a traditional British ground that those idiots shoehorned us into the worst possible example of a municipal athletics stadium totally unfit for football.
Still there are fans thinking this pile of shit is decent.
West Ham are broken
Broken ?
what the fuck is that.
We'll never be broken..ever.
 smurfs tenure is kangooroo shit compared to the Cairns .
We will see off smurf ..like we saw off uncle terrence and his gob - shite  goffer on capital radio every chance they had slagging us off ..

We prevail...cos it's what we do best

Yep and what I love about our long suffering fanbase is we call it out straight away for what it is. Unlike so many other disingenuous fanbases (Gooners, Chelsea) who think they can never do any wrong would just sugarcoat the entire farce and pretend that what they have is the absolute bollocks. We are definitely built different as a fanbase and all the better for it.

Thing is, had those wankers actually delivered what they promised (which I never believed they could from the start) then the majority of the genuine fanbase would have been content and accepting of what happened for all the right intentions. What transpired though was the total opposite. A 'project' littered with lies and spin that would make bith Campbell and Blair blush and was effectively about feathering their own nests and a Club used as their plaything and nothing else. They certainly never had the fans best intentions at the heart of such a huge decision, that's for fucking sure.

That never happened and so all things West Ham now boil his piss.

Not all of them. But when they have done the odd thing for the benefit of the club, I'll point it out. Like the £30 million rights issue and Kretinsky's £125 million he pumped in. And although they were well rewarded with interest payments, the loans they provided to the club, on relegation, back in the day, meant we didn't go into administration. And the owners (not Brady) have never drawn dividends or salaries.

For the money we pay Brady, I refuse to believe we coudn't get a more adept, brighter, sharper CEO (or what ever her job title is).
Fuck me, are you Jack Sullivan?
by the looks, this board must rank in the worst in Premiership history (short history it is mind), we used to make decent signings back in the day, remember Parks being the most expensive keeper ever? still how we have fallen, at least the old board from times past had decent connections to the club as supporters... am I disillusioned?, since these cunts took over yes, how Birmingham fans celebrated when they left & laughed like hyenas when they took over West Ham, the bullshit & lies ever since and most lap it up with expectation (realising too late it was just more bullshit)

still as long as the club is leveraged to the hilt & run like a micky-mouse outfit to the benefit of the midgets mates & co, some will be moon bound... pray tell me, how many would sell a fully paid-up house to move into a rental-property?

this coming season fills me with dread, we have been lucky not to have been relegated in the last couple of seasons, hopefully we can avoid it again(sic).

The point is, you criticise them, for things which are untrue, which makes you look the right knob, you are.

Yes, we do owe a fortune to other clubs for transfers. Standard practice. What would you prefer, that, or paying all the money due on a transfer up front? Which in itseslf, would incur more borrowing costs.

Plenty to criticise the board for, without getting things wrong.

so do you support the Board? or would you rather have some other owners with a vested interest in the club who have a plan for the future?

in truth, I'd rather have the Cearns at least we had entertaining footie and the occasional Cup-run when we actually won something of note (I don't include the recent tin-pot cup win).

We apparently owe other clubs we’ve bought players from a fortune because of the way we structure payments, everything is mortgaged even the shitty training ground, we own fuck all and will always own fuck all while these are bleeding out the club. I don’t think the fanbase will realise until Sullivan says one day “fuck you all, I’ve had enough and made enough, there’s fuck all left”.

Yep I feel the same, if it goes bad on the pitch I hope it goes worse in the stands enough is enough.
