Oh right, I thought he was under the impression that clubs should police the streets with private militia

Their fans have already started helping out in that respect.
Nothing's The Spammers responsibility. Not the behaviour of their supporters in 'their' great success of a stadium, nor the appointment of totally untrained stewards who are paid minimum wage to try and keep the peace, nor the lack of a communications system to allow the police to do their job properly within the stadium or the complete **** up of seating the old style supporter with those who can watch a football match without threatening others, throwing missiles or starting a fight.
It's all someone else's fault. Given what happened to the United coach just before the move and a general mood of discontent from their traditional support and that support's history of violence, one would have expected that the club's approach to the safety of persons and property in and around the stadium would have been a very high priority, both to protect the fans and the reputation of the club. It seems to have been the opposite. No acceptable means of segregating fans approaching and leaving the stadium has been found to date. That is going to lead to people getting hurt if it isn't solved. That may not be the club's legal responsibility but they have a moral duty to those attending matches and they should have exhausted themselves in working with others to find ways to ensure that duty be best discharged. They haven't. I presume it will take someone being badly hurt for them to start pointing out again from whose budget comes the cost of protecting people's safety and to recommence the finger pointing as to whose fault that failing is.
They will have known of the need for a communications system to be installed into the stadium to allow the police to enter it, irrespective of who paid for it. That should have been a priority for them and their landlords. It wasn't and the club's wretched response was that the police, or in other words the taxpayer, should pay for the necessary costs. That a legal responsibility doesn't rest with an organisation, doesn't stop that organisation from working with the relevant parties to protect all concerned, particularly the paying customer as they will see them. There's no sign of any such thought or action from Brady, Sullivan, Gold or anyone else. They only open their mouths to lie about the success of it all and to blame others.
I have to say that Nemesis has been building up the Spanner calamity perfectly.
Hubris by their owners on the stadium = poor on-pitch performances.
Hubris on the capacity/pricing = 20000 extra Spanner morons who can now
attend to rip up the seats.
We wait to see whether relegation is their fate, and if Spurs will be granted the
chance to deliver the fatal blow.

I just hope it is resolved soon because I am dreading the weekend of May 6th when we play there.
Knowing the authorities, nothing will be done and then that weekend they will blame us and deduct points from us costing us top 4.

I was at the Valley when we sent Charlton down about a decade back. Baring in mind Charlton were hardly a true London rival, it was quite a surreal moment to know we'd sent them down and I can't help but I admit that I rather basked in the moment of it. Then to rub salt in the wound, we took their best player in the summer... We couldn't do it again but to that pikey lot (Payet), could we? Could we?!
Fixed it for ya mate.To be honest by the time we play them it'll probably be dealt with - although naturally being West Ham vs Spurs there'll be trouble anyway. In general though it can't go on for much longer without the FA stepping in in some capacity. A points deduction or crowd reduction/ behind closed doors will whip them into shape in no time.
Regarding extra costs they'll just claim that they are tenants and those costs should be borne by the landlord. Not a bad rental agreement though where the landlord pays all your bills!
On a related matter, I heard that WetSpam have naming rights to the stadium. Is this right? I just don't get how tenants can have that right (mind you, not sure how Citeh got away with it as well). If WHU ask for such rights the reply should be "you're tenants, you don't have that right", perhaps pointing to the fact when they've used the tenant argument to their own advantage. But of course that is unlikely to be the case!
The thing is that it didn't take long to reveal the company they;re leasing it from is a partnership between Newham Council and...West Scam United.
seem to remember reading that WHam got a set amount i.e. £4m p,a, and everything above went to the legacy organisation. Though might be the other way round knowing my memory
De Boer sacked after 85 days in charge of Inter... Maybe if the Inter board realised their players are either bang average or past their best rather than thinking their managers aren't up to the task (Mancini & de Boer) they might start looking at the right type of personnel to be dismissing.
Fekking Twatenberg is the ref v the scum, god help us.
I have that reaction towards any ref these days to be honest. At least Dier should be able to get away with hacking down as many scum players as he likes without receiving a red though if our game against Chelsea last season is anything to go by

I guess the introduction of goal line technology makes Clattenberg a little more predictable.
Yet he certainly packed a lot into those 85 days
* Traveling to Norway just to get stuffed 6-1 by us
* Serie A losses to Chievo, Cagliari and Sampdoria
* Europa League losses to Sparta Prague and Hapoel Be'er Sheva
* A very public fallings out with Marcelo Brovovic and Geoffrey Kondogbia
Throw in the remarkable feud between Mauro Icardi and the club's Ultras, it makes The Damned United look like a fairytale.

Throw in the remarkable feud between Mauro Icardi and the club's Ultras sparked by Icardi's autobiography, it makes The Damned United look like a fairytale.
Where do they go now? Who'd want to risk taking over, considering the potential damage to their reputation?
Will de Boer or Mancini end up in the Premier League by the start of next year?
Wouldn't bet against it.
