Where's Trixter when you need him?

I honestly couldn't remember who, but there was more than one FLT.

 

He was a WUM Jasper. He occasionally engaged in sensible conversation but 75% off the time he was just wumming - just because he had a couple of decent chats with you (he did me too) doesn't mean he wasn't a WUM most of the time.

Once or twice on another team's board is sport. The amount he did on another teams board was not really cricket.

Zero decorum.

 

We will have to agree to disagree

 

Newcastle have a big stadium

It helps, no doubt, but it's by no means a guarantee of success.
Saying there a one man team would be disingenuous, but Payet is the reason they've had a great season as opposed to a decent one.
If he or Bilic left, then you wonder if they could cope or at least maintain the level

 

Agree. 52K season ticket holders doesn't automatically earn you any right to success.

 

Quality not quantity.

 

Have to admit they've really worked wonders converting the Olympic Stadium into something more suitable for West Ham...

 

Fair comment.

 

But there was no better karmic reward than Trixster. As long as you had some patience, you knew you could turn whatever he said back on him a few weeks later. It was really semi-instant karma, and that's worth the WUMming, for me.

 

How true is that.....but it don't half help..........

 

Thanks goodness for that; a woman that knows the truth.....

 

*waves*

 

I think he meant to click the emoji.... must have fingers like mine.

 

Not sure you deserve a round of applause FLT. It's only one point you beat us by!

 

A miss is as good as a mile.

 

They have sold thousands of cut price tickets and then spun it as thinking about their fans. It was more a case of knowing they would struggle to fill the place. AlBeeb of course sucked it up totally and ran it on news stories.

The reality is like the "record" women's FA cup final attendance it is fuelled by cut price tickets so cannot be taken as simply as people through the door.

 

I know fella. You have been good this season. I've had a feeling for a few weeks you might pip us at the post.

 

I don't know where to start with this one!

 

Have to agree. Some very sensitive flowers on here.

I feel honoured to have (another) thread devoted to me though.

Good to see I didn't get under anyone's skin or anything.

 

I've been told that they have sold a bundle (10k?) of season tickets to kids for £50. If that's true, it's terrific news rather than something to be derided. It gets 10,000 kids understanding that football is something best watched live rather than played on the X-Box. Additionally, it displays great long-term thinking from the WHU board as many of the kids will become lifelong WHU fans. When we had a 1/3 empty stadium in League 1, I was all for our doing something similar.
