We're looking pretty far from champs league, we've scored way too few goals, our only proper quality striker is very injury prone. Trying to be realistic.


Milner is a good player. Ings is only 22 and could do very well (or not). But as I say, they are 2 good "free" signings. That doesn't mean I don't want to see us splashing some cash on a big name or two...

John Barnes speaking on Talkshite last night stated that Liverpool can't compete with the likes of Chavs, City in the wages department and can't attract the top players anymore, and that fans and club should lower their expectations accordingly.

CELTIC Football Club is delighted today (9/6/15) to announce that it has been granted permission to introduce ?safe standing? through the installation of a rail seating system at Celtic Park.


Celtic has been at the forefront of attempts in the UK to introduce this measure, having been in dialogue with the relevant authorities for over five years.


It is proposed that the rail seating area will initially accommodate up to 2,600 supporters and after we consult with our supporters, could potentially be introduced for the start of season 2016/17.


Celtic Chief Executive Peter Lawwell commented: ?Celtic has worked tirelessly on this issue and we are delighted that this permission has finally been granted?.


?The introduction of rail seating at Celtic Park represents an investment in spectator safety. Across football globally, the reality is that some supporters are choosing to stand at matches. This is something we must accept and manage and also understand the positive effect which these areas have on atmosphere at matches?.


?Celtic?s primary objective will always be the safety and comfort of its supporters ? this new system will now allow fans to stand safely at matches.?


?Rail seating has been in place in European football for some time and there has been considerable demand for some form of ?safe standing? within the UK and particularly from our supporters. We are sure the rail seating section will prove very popular with supporters and we look forward to its introduction.?

glad to be rid of BFS - we went back to his poor, negative tactics once he had 'his' players fit and we were 4th bottom in the second half of the season. Chelsea at Boxing Day sums him up - we were in top 4 and plays a weakened teaml the 2nd half rot started there.


Bilic - unproven and not my first choice by and stretch but the die is cast and i am not sorry to see Sam gone

I'm happy with Bilic post BFS. To be honest I'd of been happy with a Cauliflower instead of the negative, percentage playing, narcissistic, physiological clusterfuck that is Sam Allardyce. Of course it's risk, no PL experience, maybe limited draw to new players (apart from the usual 60k per week carrot) but that's football, a risk, it's romantic, foolish and dangerous and out of that you may get brilliance, you may get trenchfoot and relegation but I may get the West Ham back that I fell for, so I'll take him.

He took Beskitas to 5th, then 4th, then 3rd against the massive Turkish giants. They also played very well against both Liverpool and Spurs in the CL/Europa. Russia's not easy for anyone and being sacked is hardly a rarity in football management - BFS was sacked by Blackburn and Newcastle.


As I say, unproven but glad the walrus is gone...

I know you are glad he is gone ????'s. I'm just not sure they've made the right choice. I heard a WH fan say just the same thing, that he was glad to be rid of a 'Northerner' to be replaced by 'one of our own'. Oh yeah, he spend a season there I think and he's Croatian.


Where did I read another WH fan saying he just wants to see the team play in the way that made him go in the first place? I don't know if that was the 60's but these days it is all about who you can buy and/or staying in the PL. I hope it works out but I wouldn't bet on it.


Oh, another thing that WH fan said which may have a grain of truth in it was that once Carroll & Nolan both got injured SA had to play a different way. He put it down to luck with the injuries.

If you scroll up you'll find I said that plenty of times in this thread - once they were fit we went back to as you were and the pre-match capitulation at Chelsea showed leopards and spots. Best for both of us WH and Him really - he was targeted to get in the top 10 this season and he didn't do that, we really struggled last year until very near the end and we were lucky to get up via the Play offs when we did, in a season when we had by far the best squad and most to spend in the Championship , would be a less charitable but reasonably truthful non Sam and Sam's mates in the media spin on his time with us. When you add to that his contempt for West Ham's fans, to be frank Fuck him. I'm not sure we'd have done especially well with him this year either so am prepared to give Bilic a break.

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
