Fellow west ham fans, I have to say
this whole Carroll, big name saga
etc. is exactly what we didn't need
to get involved in this summer. This
summer was about improving the side
to be ready for the Premier League,
getting players in who will improve
the squad and compete with what
we have already. And getting these
guys in early in order to have the
best preparation possible. IF we stay
up then next season we can look
at improving with bigger names etc.
Look at Reading and Southampton,
quietly gone about their business,
no upheaval, settled squads.
I can see both of those clubs being much more prepared for the new season
than us. WHAT AN ABSOLUTE LAUGHING STOCK WE ARE FAST BECOMING and IN THE MEANTIME WE ARE SELLING OUR CURRENT STRIKERS. WHY IS IT THAT SULLIVAN AND GOLD LOVE THE LIMELIGHT its a sham

A honest West Ham fan (Well i hope so) You don't see many. West Ham trying to do QPR and will they go one step further and hit relegation. Only time will tell. (I am not saying it will, it could.)

West Ham have admitted that they
are now likely to lose out on Berbatov because of the failed Carroll bid.

Are they for REAL! And they really expected to sign Andy Carroll. R U Having a laugh.

As we can see from rumour control:

Baldock on his way out as is Maynard
and Picquionne which leaves them with
Knackered Knees Cole and Maiga!

With 2 weeks to go until Kick off
West ham are turning into a laughing
stock and likely to have no strikers
for kick off day

Why are they not concentrating on trying to get Konate, Rhodes, Joselu, Jones etc to
give themselves so fire power instead of wasting a week chasing dreams.

They need to get the flippin bids in and secure some more strikers. They are about to bring
in 3 defenders but striker deals are a
shambles

Got to laugh about pompey news paper (online) the silly comments I read they know as much as the next pompey fan which is nothing i mean behind the scenes (bussiness football matters) , to many bussiness man football managers and experts on there why dont people just wait and see and im sure everythink will work out the 3 players will be sold or come to some sort of arrangement then who ever takes over,yes we are all worried about are great club just seeing the amount of negative comments i see on here its mad plus the odd saints fan on there cant get my head a round that nothing better to do any way think i just read the news paper in future RANT OVER!! lol PUP

That not really a rant fella, but some really good obs about your blue few...come on over to the red side of Hampshire and enjoy....COYRs

Not sure about the rest of you true die hard west ham fans, but I'm getting a little sick
of hearing all this rubbish about Andy
Carroll who one minute is joining West Ham and then next minute he isn;t. It has got to be season ticket time renewal cause this is the biggest load of poo I have heard in a long time. Why would we want a Donkey thats gonna cost us £20m who don;t wanna come to us, when there is better out
there for less money. Are Gullivan REALLY
going to splash £20m on this donkey?
