I have to say I thought he'd be gone. It looks like Sullivan/Gold are spineless (irrespective of cost to get rid of him).

BBC Website


"West Ham manager Sam Allardyce retains the backing of the club's owners despite the humiliating League Cup semi-final defeat by Manchester City.


BBC Sport has learned that David Gold and David Sullivan were not swayed by the result at the Etihad, despite large sections of the travelling support appearing to turn on the manager.


West Ham continue to work hard in the transfer market and are hopeful of adding two or three new players in the coming days.


The first arrival could yet be Monaco striker Lacina Traore, who could arrive on loan if he is granted a work permit at a hearing next Monday."



It's strange, I generally want clubs to give managers time, and stick with them rather than sacking them after a few bad results, but in this case, he just looks so out of touch with reality.

Part of the reality is that WHU have suffered big time with injuries, in particular the centre half dept (I can think of 3) IMO it's the most important position on the park, even City have struggled when Kompany has been out. Maybe the Board think these are mitigating circumstances to at least wait until some of the injured players come back and see if that makes a difference...

You're right RD but the problems started a long long time before the injuries - right about when Downing was signed and no striker was.


I feel too that Cardiff is last chance but worry that - by law of averages or Cardiff having a bad day - a win will prolong the agony - and yet I want a win - and yet that'll keep him at the club - but I want a win - it's a footy catch 22.


I accept a new man may not keep us up but at least the rebuild could start earlier.



'bout now's earlier post sums it up for me.

Really? Pardew's record is only 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, even Moyes' record is slightly better with 4 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses.

Semantics really, as Pellegrini should get it with 6 wins and a draw. I'd give special mention to Pullis, 3 wins out of 6 for the then bottom club is good going...

Is this real or a spoof?

"But I?m not built like that. I may be a modern man in terms of utilising technology and the latest techniques but I have traditional values when it comes to life."


It's giving me a chuckle in any case

Sorry, I was being sarcastic!

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
