Hey I've just dug up the interesting bit - who cares if he wraps it up with some praise for Lampard ;-)


Bottom line is, Fletcher, who was given the run around by 18 year Aaron Ramsey last weekend, is talking as if he is a match for elite midfielders. I've got nothing against Fletcher but hell he'd not even get in the Everton or Spurs midfield! Some might say it's ambitious talk, I say his head is in the clouds!

What's gone wrong at the Hammers?


Apart from bad luck, bad buyout and impending financial(again) doom.


James Collins


I think we sold a guy that made Upson good, a real blood and thunder centre half, not pretty (like Terry), but effective.

We will not go down though, much worse around us.




Honest!

Agree on Collins - rumour is we had to sell him as we were hoping to unload Davenport but 'events'. I just don't like looking around for teams that look weaker than us - Wolves and Pompey maybe but then!!! Next week's a crucial one and we've certainly been a bit unlucky at home to Liverpool, Spuds and Everton and careless away at Hull and Sunderland! I guess we've got most of the bottom teams to play still at home but I'm a bit worried about games we could have won or got something out of but haven't...aparently the finacial situation is getting a bit better. I think Upson will go in Jan though.
Hull's penalty for the 3rd goal was an absolute joke decision. When will referees begin to understand that in giving a penalty, they are giving a goal... and you don't give a goal for two players bumping into each other on the edge of the box, neither of them even in possession of the ball.

Liverpool very flat yesterday - barely testing Shay Given. Players were up for it, and City were there for the taking, but the system of putting everything through an unfit Gerrard was too easy to defend. I'd been hoping to see Aquilani or Riera brought on with 5 minutes to go as we pushed for victory but Rafa decided to replace the tired Yossi with another left back.


I've been told that Rafa's contract contains a clause that should Liverpool fail to make the last 16 of the CL he can be dimissed by the Yanks for ?5m (max) (rather than the full ?15m to ?20m).

Just making some observations Mick - I'd not trespass on your territory ;-)


We saw Shay Given on our train yesterday, he looked quite depressed, and looked suicidal when he had a photo with our group! Haha. Although he did have the humour to say Mark Hughes had told them at end of match that City 'should have won' the game.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
