i for one dont want curbs to go, but my little rant
we are fucked as a club, and knew as soon as the fixture came out tonight we would loose (ok its h/t) but still
AC is beeing overuled on everything by our CEO Scott Duxbury IMO, and were becoming a laughing stock as it is
to set the seen out chairman (BG) bought the club, and used a minor share holder and his mate Eggert Magnerson as the front man, EM worked for Uefa, was well regarded whitin the football circles, and seen as the ideal man to get us through the tevez issue
problem was, Egg was also responsible for the wages demands etc, Curbs identified the players, and the rest was over to Egg, he went mental, and gave players massive contracts, this upset the team, and also made the club verging on non profitable
BG sorts this out, get rid of Egg, and now wants to make the club self sustaning, the rumour beeing we needed to get 10mil back
so now we have players being sold and payed off against AC will (anton wouldnt sign a new contract tbf)
players fucked off because some are earning loads more (reason anton wouldnt sign a new contract, reason Green and Deano got the hump)
Curbs beeing undermined by a gloryfied lawer (our CEO)
and a chairman who says fuck all
also with fans hating the way we play
the worse medical team in history (berhami just got injured too)
and loosing tonight we are in crisis

Curbishley is a good manager imo, West Ham are quite possibly the most unluckiest club on the planet when it comes to injured players.
Part of that must go down to you signing players that have a history of being made of glass right enough!

haha my boss is a die hard west ham fan and now a good freind and im not from the football factory!
i dont hate westham, more jealous there doing soo well compared that us haha!
but if u keep hold of ashton, green, sears for the future and bring maybe 2 more players in you should match the heights of everton! anton going i wouldnt worry about, v.over rated!
Prem i can see being very hard this year so carling cup woudlnt worry me more along the lines of keeping in top half.

we are utterly shit, but then again we allways get knocked out by lower leage clubs

sorry but
Really hope we draw you at UP in the next round......there will literally be thousands of United making there way down. The bad feeling towards WHU is nearly as bad as that towards Wednesday and Leeds

They will be down before long and in a mountain of debt, just like Leeds a few years back.
Don't get me wrong I would love us to be still in the PL but Championship football is a lot more entertaining and honest tbh. No swamping of the referee's and diving every 2 minutes makes much better viewing

we are nothing like leeds , we just spend as much as we turnover
leeds spent more than they turndover, because they banked on future sucess

If you love championship football so much, why (still) so bitter towards a team who you feel helped you down

modern football is mainly about money.....and the best place for money is in the PL.
football is simply a business and without money more and more clubs will be finding themselves in the same predicaments as the likes of Rotherham and Luton...... Rotherham had to leave there ground and move to an athletics stadium in Sheffield because they couldn't afford the £4k a week rent, disgusting really......
My point was that Championship football is more entertaining than watching the same 4 teams dominate every year imo
