West Ham are complete failures! Let's all laugh at 'em!

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Since top six is our target, the more teams the top four beat, the better for us surely? A win tonight put us five points clear of the nearest rival. Let thee top four keep beating everyone and we'll get top six no bother.

I 'm sure mental health experts would find this a fascinating study in manic depression - hopeless optimism followed by suicidal depression. I did like the chap who put what Curbs was supposed to do in perpsective with the analogy that when you are knee-deep in alligators it is sometimes hard to remember you came to drain the swamp (or something - I'm relying on memory).

Shows that they clearly viewed Davenport as a long-term prospect :roll:

Reminds me of when Newcastle dumped £10 million on Luque, only to keep him on the bench when they paid an even more ridiculous fee for Michael Owen. Say what you want about Sam's caution in the transfer window, at least he doesn't buy one player only to buy a better player a week later.

Paranoia from the KUMB muppets

Bolton fans would go as far as losing tonight help our rivals for the drop, they really do hate us, still confuses me.

it comes from 3 years ago, fat sam 'every one wants us to go down and not west ham... its so unfair!!''....... W*nker!!

Not just that fat c*nt Sam...many others would like to see us off for next season (because of our new found riches) I sense a stitch up

Watch this theme gain momentum in the coming weeks.

Class piece of business. :D

As an aside: When Keyring Dyers contract with them up the rerd expires, they will have paid him £10.5 MILLION. Long live Dyer.

and you say that after last night's performance???

The top 4 can do what they want but if we keep playing like that we'll be lucky to finish top 10.

No, I said it before last night's performance.

I'm still willing to keep the faith though. 65% posession, ten corners to nil, Lord knows how many missed chances (but with no strikers in the game) and one mistake from a normally brilliant goalie who's saved us time and time again. Yeah, I'll keep the faith.

Oh, and playing on a skid pan in the pxxxxxg rain.

"Lord knows how many chances"?? Well being omniscient, I would hope so, but it doesn't take the Almighty to know we actually created 3 clear chances, only 2 of which we on target and one we score and the other the keeper saved in slow-mo.

P*ssing rain? Damp but not a downpour.

Possession ? Leave it to demons, we need goals.

The players themselves have been saying that Champions League football is the ultimate ambition of the Club this season, so maybe they have (had?) a different target.

West Ham are an irrelevance - we wanted Liverpool to lose.

But it all seems irrelevant based on how we're playing at the moment.

At this moment in time, Champions League is pure pipe-dream. We are just not good enough (or rich enough) to aspire to such grandeur. Champs League teams have to be consistenly good enough to challenge anyone. Much as I love the Whites, only a daydreamer would see us in that bracket. We fight, scramble and sometimes show pure class in our games (I emphasise "sometimes") but that's realistically it. To six again, maybe fifth, is realistic if we play well (which we don't always do). Making top four would depend not on us, but the poor form of the existing top four. That, unfortunately, is still no basis for Champions Legue status. One day, maybe, right now, not an option.

Aspirations don't cost anything, Tango.

If I get to hear the Champions League hymn being piped around the Reebok, my ultimate ambition as a Bolton fan, then I couldn't care less if it came about as the result of others' ineptitude.

as a god, and the Almighty, one would hope your Lord is capable of omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience - being capable of all things, in all places at all times and knowing all.
