More than aware of these "epitahs", since I've followed the club since 68, unlike Tick Tac who changes allegiances to suit his mood. Proper plum. If I were to come out with the dross that he trots out, I'd be told to be less antagonistic and confrontational, he, on the other hand, is seen as a bit of a joker. The man is hilarious, just like his clubs exploits in the CMPL, ooops sorry, I forgot that they aren't in it any more. Now I promise to leave it, provided Victoria Plum drops it.

As it happens, and a rarity among West Ham fans, I've a reasonable amount of time for Lampard, he strikes me as petty bright for an English footballer, and apart from the horrible episode after 9/11, tends to act with decorum and dignity. He's given West Ham fans a fair bit of stick but has faced some pretty hideous abuse off them (including when he played for us - "daddy's boy" etc), his dad was unceremoniously sacked by the club with no notice was he ever going to want to carry on playing for us then?


Still praying Chelsea finish 5th or 6th ....even if Spuds get the spot,mmmm, maybe

When Henrik rode into town and took your one chance of the big cup....




 

Aris boasts a remarkable statistic in European football; the club has not lost a home game in European competition in 42 years, having gone 25 games undefeated at the Kleanthis Vikelidis stadium. This record was notably maintained when Aris defeated Europa League champions Atletico Madrid on 16 September 2010, Aris' 22nd undefeated home game in Europe. The team then went on to tie Bayer Leverkusen to keep the record intact once more.


From wiki.

At last. It's good to know that I'm not the only one. Whatever Hammers fans say he was one of the best box to box players I've seen at Upton Park. His position wasn't really helped with sacking of his Father and of course his uncle.


But of all the clubs Abramovich had to pick, he picked them tossers.

Keef - with more people like you on this forum, there would be no fun at all.


If you can dish it out you should be able to take it. My personal view is that anyone who can get annoyed about football banter needs to take a good look at themselves.

Nope, I always had time for Frank at Upton Park. I thought he was a consistent and talented performer for us for years and got very annoyed at the abuse he received from the fans, all that lumplard rubbish, it was so self defeating.


Both Franks were treated pretty shamefully ..err...frankly... so good luck to him. But yeah, the whole Chelsea badge kiss thing is pretty annoying...i mean...chelsea...

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
