Big Sam took the Spanners into Europe, and it took Bilic just two games to **** it all up! The pornographers couldn't hold on to the money-shot for very long, with Bilic acting as the stud. Big Sam would have had a lot more stamina, I bet.
I enjoyed Sam's time at West Ham, I like him as a person and whatever he ends up doing I hope he does well. He took us back into the Prem and got us nice and stable over the course of a few years (something Spu*s would know nothing about). He gave us THREE wins over the ****e in one season and bought in some good players. However the second half of last season it clearly all went a bit wrong (Carrol coming back, going from a winning formula to playing around Carrol was a big no-no). I think at the end of the day come the end of the season Sam's heart didn't look like it was in it anymore and it was probably for the best all round that his contract was not renewed (that's what happens at the end of a contract if you decide to part company, it is *not* sacking which Spu*s know a lot about).
Four people make a banner and that equals everyone? I guess when you're a moron that can only count to three any number higher seems like infinity, so I can understand why you are confused. It's an interesting photo, one repeated and repeated in every newspaper whenever they wanted to emphasis how much West Ham fans wanted him out, the same banner from the same game, every time.
There are only two West Ham fans on this board, but that is two too many. And Fat Sam was clearly sacked for not playing the 'West Ham way', whatever the **** that it is.
He wasn't sacked, his contract ran it's full course and was not renewed. He did play the West Ham way at the end, we kept losing.
"He did play the West Ham way at the end, we kept losing." I knew he'd get something right eventually!...
We have had 15 managers in our entire 120 year history. Spurs have had 35. Just wtf are we arguing about here?
Independent polls showed that the majority of our fans wanted Allardyce to stay, even when were in serious trouble around Christmas 2013. There were small protest groups but they didn't represent the viewpoint of the entire fanbase. He fulfilled 2 x 2yr contracts and at the end we didn't re-new. He wasn't sacked. He done a good job overall and walked away knowing that he'd met all the targets he'd been set. Replacing him with Bilic was the right move at the right time because we are now an established premier league club again ready to move up a level.
Since 2008, we've had 4 managers: Redknapp, AVB, Sherwood, and Poch. West Ham have had 4 managers: Zola, Avram Grant, Big Sam, and Bilic. What's also interesting, is that in the wake of Rednapp leaving you, after a spell of 7 years, West Ham went through a period of managerial turmoil, something that has continued to this day, getting through 7 managers. Spurs have had 7 managerial changes since 2001, also. In the above stats, I have discounted care-taker managers for both clubs (which is the same for both clubs, too, in any event).
Ever wondered what former West Ham defender Paul Konchesky does in his spare time? Probably not... but in case you do, he opens new pie shops in Brentwood (BBC Football website, Gossip page)
Spurs have had more than double the number of managers we've had since the two clubs were formed. Our recent managerial changes were brought on by financial problems caused by the icelenadic banking crisis. The squad suffered as a result and we had a relegation. All the managerial changes were necessary. We didn't just change manager because we fancied a change like the spuds do. Bilic has been appointed with a long term aim. He won't be going anywhere for a long time. I wouldn't mind betting that the spuds get through at least 3 managers in the time that Bilic is here.
**** me, Tricky! You really are deluded, petal! This is down solely to the fact that you Spanners have had about 8 managers who, between them, have managed for over 100 years, including one sad-sack who managed the club for over 30 years, during which time he won absolutely **** all. That's right! Because Levy likes to **** with people's heads, rather than do what he believes to be right by the club! You must be a half-wit, if you really believe the ****e that you write! Of course he won't! Whether he's with you for 1 season or for another 30 seasons, the real test has got to be whether or not he takes your club forward and/or wins anything. Keeping someone in office merely for the sake of it is not how things are done in the modern game, in general. Arsenal remains the only exception in world football, and just look at how stale they have become! Whether we have more or less managers than you, over the next decade, the absolute certainty is that we'll be the better club.
Which one were you? I'm guessing the neanderthal holding it at the bottom looking in completely the wrong direction, probably distracted by a pigeon on the pitch. You all wanted him out despite him saving you from relegation. You're a yoyo club, deal with it.
