There is such a saying as.....You made your bed now you have to lie in it..........Start crowing and it is bound to bite your ass is another.....both very appropriate in this thread me thinks............
From both sides! I think though we can both celebrate in the fact that we both should be safe and, after all, that is all newly promoted teams can realistically wish for in year 1. No 7
Yay the permanent West Ham match day thread returns I am not bothered about it coming to bite me in the ass. I'm quite prepared to take a mouthful if we forget which stadium we play in next week BRING IT ON. Love your sense of humour Bzzz. Your sarcastic use of that sentence in your signature whilst BFS uses catapults and ballistas for his attacks is very brave
In my book theres no rivalry with West Ham just with Trixter, who sadly turned from a poster with a little bit of "banter" to a wum throughout the course of this season.
"The crowds at West Ham have never been rewarded by results but they keep turning up because of the good football they see. Other clubs will suffer from the old bugbear that results count more than anything. This has been the ruination of English soccer." - Ron Greenwood Dear old Ron is turning in his grave now he has seen what Fat Sam has done to what was once a great club. Rather sadly for them no-one calls them the Academy these days.
I remember last season when Saints fans sung "football! You used to play football..." That was it. West Ham fans were foaming at the mouth and calling for a fight outside.
I was there then and it was hilarious winding up the West Ham fans. Long walk back to the tube afterwards though!
By my reckoning, there's only five teams in the division with managers who've been at their club longer than Fat Sam, so you may tell yourself it's short-term, but really in this climate it's quite a reign he's enjoying. Long may it continue!
Whatever rivalry does exist will disappear with Fat Sam. It's really him that winds us all up, not West Ham or their fans...
I should never have left this place. It's my spritual home. please log in to view this image Can I introduce my new joint manager Jamie redknapp. He gets the same 5m + cough hmmm um........bonuses....thats the word bonuses. He has some useful (wink, wink) contacts too
That was a disaster, we went for a long walk to another station. Unfortunately we walked past all the pubs that we were told to avoid! Luckily, I had a coat and it's one of few times I've appreciated my Essex accent!
Above is where everyone looks to get a sight of the ball when you lot are playing. You're the new Bolton.
Come on trixter admit it. You are ****ting your pants and trying to deny what is inevitable and undeniable. Fat Sam and his style of football is an anachronism and you will always struggle if you persist with it and we are going to end up above you this season and you will have to eat humble pie.
