He must have been p*ssed when paid 30 million for Berbatov.

[Sandperson]

now, that's more like it.

Mick - where are the congratulations for 9 man Rangers?!

[matthew123]

I thought LG's post was funny - and then to use that SP as an excuse to accuse Wenger is a disgrace.

Bad game yesterday, diving, cheating, snarling - no real complaints about the final score but the behaviour of United supporters just goes from bad to worse. Not sure why they cause so much trouble up an down the land but they are giving the rest of their fanbase a very bad name.

The one positive I would say is the take up of the green & gold protest scarves by a large proportion of their support - even if it is the Glazers themselves who are behind this latest example of Yankee ingenuity to fleece fans.

I didn't say he was an alcoholic just that a glass of whiskey would have made him sleep well.

Matt, you are twisting my words to stir up trouble and you know it. Shame you didn't enjoy the game, I did. Park is a very brave player don't you think. not many would have put their head there.

[Mick Mac]

Very impressed with Rangers and Walter Smith this season - in the face of finacial adversity its been a great season for them and shows what can be done with decent management.

[matthew123]

Ok SP, I failed to register it as you using an extreme example, even if it is still bang out of order as a comparison to a lesser unfounded argument, rather than my intial reaction to what looked like a pretty sick allegation against Wenger.

[Sandperson]

Nice one Matt.

Am picturing ???? and MP with one of these:

West Ham United return home on Tuesday for the visit of Wolverhampton Wanderers and as ever the fans will have a vital role in making it a memorable night under the lights.

To help provide a deafening atmosphere at the Boleyn Ground and send a clear message of togetherness to those watching on TV and around the world, principal partners SBOBET have sponsored a giveaway of 30,000 clap-banners.

Made famous by the FA for the England football team at Wembley, the free gift follows on from the special scarves handed out to supporters back in December and are sure to make a noisy impact on Tuesday night

The claret and blue clap-banners, featuring the words Come on you Irons!, will be available to home fans once they take their seats. As well as being used to make plenty of noise, they can also be held up to show support at key moments in the action - not least when the team take the field to the sounds of Bubbles

Whatever happened to proper football?

[mockney piers]

Ouch. The people who run the club have a terrible habit of getting everything a bit wrong.

for starters those awful plastic towers. Then the Hammerettes, then getting rid of the Hammerettes, that terrible cartoon sponge when there's an injury....oh I could go on...

[Ladygooner]

I don't think I heard any renditions of Bubbles at the Emirates on Saturday - is it only sung at home matches?

[SimonM]

I used to take a rattle to Bramall lane when I were nobbutalad! And no, not a baby's rattle either!

[mockney piers]

No, but the fans have been a bit mute this season.

And the home atmosphere has been a shadow of its former self for years, and gets worse with each new stand sadly.

['bout now]

I was at the Bolton match a couple of weeks ago.

The Hammerettes were the highlight of the entire game, sadly.

[????]

"happy clappy bollocks (this is one step too far)" ...would sum up the politer responses on forums.

Agree with Mockney really decent atmosphere at home have gone with a few exceptions - Ipswich Play off (x2) ..and.er....Millwall at home this season...

I'm surprised there wasn't more noise at the Emirates thogh LG, our away support remains pretty good and vocal. To be honest away fans make more noise at most grounds nowadays - or those of the half decently supporeted teams anyway.

[kpc]

It's like teams who play music when they score - points should be deducted. It's a sad state of affairs if fans are not able to create a bit of noise for themselves.

And ground sharing with a rugby team should also lead to points deduction.

[Annasfield]

Ha ha. Along with the supply of scarves and plastic flags. Infact, any such teams should be banned from Europe under UEFA guidlines.

[kpc]

The sponsoring of announcements for subs and added time - FFS how much can this possibly bring in.

[????]

Real goalposts and nets...that's when the decline started

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Good little match tonight, what? 2-0.

Only trouble is, I've lost count of how many play-offs we've failed at.

[????]

Oh, I count them all ;-)

[woofmarkthedog]

Ohh....

I know what I'll be "snacking" on come the big game..

W**F

*probably chokin' on too"

[????]

just done the predictor (again)

Man U champions by 2 pts to Arsenal

Spurs beat Liverpool to 4th Place by 1 pt

West Ham stay up with 37 points with none of the current bottom 3 breaking the 30 point barrier!

Go away, PGC. Honestly, Millwall seem to have some sort of hoo-doo over Leeds at the moment. And don't even get me started on play-off failures.....the way we're playing at the moment we'll be in the play-offs AGAIN this year. And lose AGAIN.

Another season of mediocrity awaits.

Ho-hum.
