Its my opinion at the end of the day.

Mate your opinions are always as valid as anyone else, don't forget I've started threads asking you to post more frequently.


However you came across as angry and dismissive of another posters opinion that was different to yours which I way I responded. "The worst post I've ever read" and "I don't give a flying f.uck I'm not an accountant" absolutely showed that you hadn't understood the posters frustration with our manager.

It was not your usual posting style which whisky rightly described as eloquent, you didn't show any respect for another posters opinion so it's a bit unfair to indicate that your opinion should be respected.[/quote]

Sorry but I am not saying my opinion should be respected...I wrote that to mean that I am not saying I am right but that it was just my opinion.

However, the points you raise that you claim that I do

Sorry I've been offline since my last post and not joined in the ensuing fun. Everyone is delighted (at least I hope they are) with the last four results. The defence has been magnificent, particularly Adrian, and we still have the prospect of Reid coming back to full fitness.

My post was in response to the rhetorical original question 'give Sam time'? and as a boring old fart who has always loved watching kids be given a chance, i can't understand for the life of me why Lee for instance has never merited a start, when the muppet called Maiga played game after game.

[quote="bonzosbest74"]69, I've noticed a lack of comprehension of other peoples opinions in quite a few of your posts mate.


You clearly attend loads of away games (your away reports are the stuff of legend) and have supported West Ham for many years yet your outlook is very much that of a modern premier lg era fan.


There seems to no understanding that some people might have supported the Hammers because of the style of football so any attempts at mentioning the lack of possession and siege defending is met with a pragmatic nudge toward the league table.

Allardyce apologists seem to expect that fans brought up on watching the likes of Brooking, Devonshire & DiCanio should just get over it and accept our lack of flair because 'The BFS way' is effective.

It is incomprehensible why anyone would yearn for more academy players in the team. . . . . that's just old fashioned isn't it? The academy argument is met with grunts of 'they ain't good enough' without

Believe me this has to be one of the most difficult replies Ive ever had to do, I even thought about not posting but alas I am now.

I agree with Bonzo and ... this is more difficult than I thought

You want someone to blame for the way football has gone, blame Sky ! - My opinion - I am more worried about the 60 quid tickets than a couple of signings that didn't work out (like no other manager ever makes mistakes)

Noone has to listen to me but I gave my opinion, does not mean I dont respect people that want it to go back to being like the 70's ...I do, but I am a tad more realistic.

Blame Sky? How so? Back in the day Sky offered the deal to the clubs and they accepted it. They didn't have to agree.

Then Sky sold their product to us football loving punters. We didn't have to buy it, but we did. In large numbers.

Would we have ever seen diCanio at Upton Park had it not been for Sky? I know many people have issues with the quality or otherwise of our performances at the moment but surely you would agree the overall standard of play in the top division is the best it has ever been.

And wall to wall football on the t v, a

Probably because Lee is not yet good enough either...having seen him I think he looks too lightweight myself, but playing Maiga might have meant in getting rid in Jan ?

However, the Youth thing has been commented on enough...I still stand by the comment that there are no decent kids worth giving a chance above what we have playing in the first team and there haven'

You've clearly soiled yourself mate


To be honest I've agreed with Sir T a on at least 4 occasions recently . This site needs strong differing opinions and I never had a problem with his or anyone else's football chat, it was the personal stuff and goading that I objected to and I've not seen any of it recently.


Maybe he's stopped his wind-ups and has changed his ways a bit which is surely a good thing. This board went through a bit of a dip not so long ago and we need all the old & new posters we can get so another passionate opinionated fan is most welcome.

Debates would be very boring indeed if we all saw the game in exactly the same way.
