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

Have they wheeled Trevor Brooking yet? If not then more likely...

Baaaaaacon ««««««« is what my auto correct is trying to say. I blame Pru

Seems Sam's managed to get his siege mentality going.

Fair play to 'em today, the old BWFC connection doing the business. I might take a look at the KUMB site and sit in wonder at the complete reversal of comments from 5 weeks ago when the utter boneheads were shouting for BSA to fvck off and take his fat love child with him......... ' What the fvck has Nolan ever done for us???!!!' ......................Kept you in the prem you ungrateful lucky bastards............

Cardiff here we come, it shouldn't belong on this thread as this should be mainly about our great win today.
But since you asked a quick reply. First: I don't hate Allardyce. I tend to hate only people I know personally.
Personally Allardyce hasn't done anything to me, so I don't hate him. In private he may be a lovely fellow, a joy to spend time with and a great laugh having in your pub round. I don't know.

As a West Ham fan though I do not like him as our manager. Mainly his "Respect the point" fixation, even in games against opposition we should really attack and go for the win from the word "Go!"
His tendency to ask players to play out of position, some of that due to injury, sure, but Taylor for instance was lost at RB, he could have played a youth player there used to the position.
His tendency to stick with players even when not performing. It's easy to support Nolan now after scoring those vital goals in recent games, but before that he had a long barren stretch where the effort and form just wasn't there and Allardyce could have taken him out of the team then, maybe that's where the red cards came from, borne out of frustration.
Also his indifference towards our academy players.
I'm grateful if Allardyce somehow helps us to escape relegation, but I cannot see Allardyce change in his ways and that's why I won't be sad if he leaves our club one day.

I'm sure some other fans agree with me while others don't. Which is fair enough.
Today was a great win for us though, so no reason at all to moan!

Please send him back here, I love some of the above, reminds of the glory days

Useless fact #1 - West Ham have kept 13 clean sheets this season. The highest in the Prem.
Useless fact #2 - Only 4 managers in history have more Premier League wins than Big Sam.

[Lord Kangana]

Wenger, Ferguson and I'm guessing Moyes?

[Prufrock]

That Spanish prick?

[Lord Kangana]

Wasn't here long enough was he? Possibly. I'm discounting Jose based on number of games.

[Bruce Rioja]

Premier League wins? Ah yes, I forgot that football was invented by Sky Television!

[Prufrock]

I dunno, he was here ages I thought. Then a year at Chelsea. Yeah not long enough for Mourinho I don't think.

Redknapp is the only other one I can think of given there ate four. Think your three are all right.

[Lord Kangana]

Redknapp is above Moyes.

It must be current, because Ferguson, Wenger, Moyes and Redknapp are all above him. He's fifth all time.

[Lord Kangana]

Oops. Thats what he said.

[mummywhycantieatcrayons]

Benitez is above him.

Although it's hard to have confidence in a list that orders by first name and includes those knighted amongst the 'S's!

The Allardyce and Mark Curtis part of this story is interesting.

Allardyce trying to force players to sign up with Mark Curtis?

But but but it was Gartside who was pally with Curtis (who is a c*nt and by extension so is anyone he deals with) whilst Allardyce is a hero who surely would not associate with the likes of Curtis.......I can hear certain people's scripts being ripped up from here!

There is of course the possibility that they're both "pally" with Curtis, given that Bolton used him to recruit Megson, after Allardyce had left...
