Koby, serious question, do you think hammers will get a points deduction for the alleged bribing to get the new stadium or is it just spurs hot air?
Wow, this has all got very childish. I'd have to say though that Koby's overall sense of West Ham's size and importance as a club is both vastly over-exaggerated and surprisingly misplaced. As fans we all have inflated opinions of our own club, but you speak about the WH as if you're somehow a big club. We've come to expect this rubbish from the likes of Man U and Arsenal fans over the years, but at least they genuinely have something to shout about - West Ham are an average sized club with an average sized fanbase, a thoroughly average history and now a pretty average squad. In fact, other than being slightly famous for the hooligan element within your fanbase (it's not all of you by any stretch of the imagination I appreciate) and providing several of the great England team of 66 you're a lot like ourselves and many other medium sized clubs in England.
There are many clubs in this division who have equally proud histories and traditions as yourselves, so if West Ham fans think they're somehow going to be the "famous" West Ham or the big fish in this little pond then you need to think again. As much as it pains me to say it, Leeds are by far the biggest and most famous club in the Championship right now, but size hardly matters when we're all stuck in the same league together does it? There are at least a dozen clubs in this league whose fans believe that they 'belong' in the PL, but the only thing that really matters is what goes on on the pitch. And if you really think that the likes of Matty Taylor are going to take this league by storm then you might be in for a bit of a shock because the standard will be a lot, lot higher than you're expecting.

West Ham are some of the biggest cheats around aswell. They get a load of dodgey owners like that Icelandic bank and that Egghead. They had to break the rules to stay up by signing Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano. They club is massively in debt and then they get a freebie stadium. The only reason West Ham think they are a big clubs is because half of Eastenders support them

Calm down,you make some good points, this thread has become very childish,I prefer silly banter, there is nothing
serious in it.
There are several big has been clubs in this league,Leeds,Leicester,Forest to name a few..
Do I think WH will piss this league ? Yes
Reason ?
The Premiership has only got better since some of these previous big clubs got relegated,the gap has just kept on getting bigger.
So on this basis the level of football between the two divisions is miles apart from what it was five.. ten years ago.
Newcastle went down and bounced straight back up,they kept most of their squad and made the Npower look
like one hell of a weak league,Do we have as good a squad as newcastle ? well we have their captain who
scored 18 goals in the Prem last year and knows this league as he was in it the previous year.
Matched with that we have players who averaged a dozen goals a season in the likes of Freddie Piquionne
Carlton Cole,love or hate these players if they are in the starting line up then with BIG SAM in charge
there is doubt that they will be doing the business up front, I would be surprised if they dont rack up 40 goals between them.
Most leicester fans seem to take their 10h place finish last season and a few has been signing's this year
as a clear indication that they will take this league,I think deep down most Leicester fans would be happy with
making it to the play offs.
As for us stealing our new ground,we are the closest club if you look past tiny Orient.
It would be pretty weird having spurs fans playing in east london every week,there's no scandal here,just common sense.

Well first off, I was talking about your current team. Your tendency to hang in the past reminds me of the Forest fans that still think it's the 1970s.
Secondly, most of those big names mentioned above I associate more with other clubs that West Ham - so of them were at your club for season or two at best, then left you for bigger and better!
As previously admitted by you, you know nothing of this league yet you make outlandish predictions, you say your own club is well off but everywhere I look I see stories of financial disasters, and you don't seem to realise that most of your current squa will be gone by Aug 31. I therefore draw the conclusion that you are either in denial or are a complete idiot.

"The Premiership has only got better since some of these previous big clubs got relegated,the gap has just kept on getting bigger."
Is that factual statistic? I seem to remember two of the teams promoted last season survived, the other relegated only on the last day. This seems to have been the case for the last few seasons. 10-15 years ago, I remember nearly all the promoted sides used to go down - remember Palace, Barnsley and Bolton in 98? Of course you don't you probably wasn't born.
Returning to my point, I believe evidence shows that the gap is decreasing, hence why I think that the relegated sides will struggle this season.

Again, you are wrong - before the season started, we had high hopes, only the disastrous start under Sousa meant that finishing out top six was a preferable option. However, when we hit the top 6 in January, it was very disappointing to see us finish 10th. Like you claim about WH, we also had a good squad but were badly managed by Sousa. This coming season, we have an even better squad, a great manager and money to back us if things aren't going as they should.
Promotion is all that is on our minds. If that's by winning the league or the play-offs it's irrelevant, but the fans will not be happy with finishing in the top six and not getting promoted.
Now a serious question to you KOBY, aren't you even slightly worried that you may be relegated for a second successive season? From what I've been hearing about your off-field situation, it's a real possiblity.

West Ham are completely Donald Ducked, and it couldn't be more deserved.

W.ham got Nolan and Taylor because of long stupid contracts that no other club would have the sence to
get into, think its that old pal's act with Honest Sam
Newcastle knew Nolan as only one more
good year in him! was glad to sell, WHU need to get promoted or WILL be in the **** bigtime! what a shame.

Lesta your a joke,I cant be bothered going through all the crap you wrote but the reason I showed you WHam's
players created over the last 15 years is because you were dribblng **** about West ham only ever having players
who are rejecting by other clubs in the last 15 years,again I think this 15 year period you quoted was just so you could mention the Milk float cup your guys won back in the day.
Regarding the articles,its old news boys,Papers have nothing to report so they are churning out the old crap,bit like yourself Lesta..
West Ham's debt has been reduced by 20M since the two Davids have took charge,They will half their wage bill when the likes of Parker move on,having already got rid of the wages of Ba,Hitzlerberger,Behrami,Dyer....
As for WH getting that stadium,this will make the club,they will attract all the middleground with the easy access to
central london creating new fans,this will happen by offering the fans discounted seats to create an interest as well
as the commercial possibilities,they will rake in the cash which will transfer to team,Tottenham know this
and thats why they are flinging their hangbags all over the shop.
While this is happening your owners will be selling the club for some Som tom and noodles to next big foreign
invester to **** the club up!
Lets all keep in touch guys,I wanna see what crap excuses you come out with when your netball team declares failure once again
