gnasher16 30,025 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 The bonus to Carrol coming back is obvious as he,s a good player.....the downside is it encourages us to smash long balls up the pitch even more than we are already.....i,ll be amazed if the boy sees the season out without another injury or 2 you just cant put all your eggs in 1 basket like that. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
clipo 871 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 its a shame carrol was under that fat greedy kunt mike ashley at newcastle really as if he stayed there and never had these RIDICULOUS transfer fees on his head then he would of been a great player!!! unfortunately he has ended up a journeyman who will never live up to what could of been!!!! west ham fans bleat on about homegrown talent and carrol is a million miles away from where he WANTS to be playing football..........in newcastle......... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,025 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 So just because West Ham have produced more big name international footballers than any club in England....that means they shouldnt be able to buy other English footballers !.....I wonder how many players actually play for the club they support !!

gnasher16 30,025 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 It just doesnt work like that....we have a boy here Mark Noble grew up round the corner who said from day 1 he refuses to play for any other club than West Ham............while fans love that sort of stuff its not realistic if you had a loyalty to Tescos its not going to stop you working for Asda if the price is right.......and rightly so.......the ONLY loyalty in football comes from fans everybody knows that.

Lol Listened to it on the radio, same old by the sound of it. I was well pleased with the turn out......a grand attendance of 14k !!........Everybody id spoke to leading up to the game were determined to vote with their feet and thats exactly what happened.............if he wants to give 1 cup competition away for free then give tickets for the other one away for free,simple.

gnasher16 30,025 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Its called togetherness Max.....its what the bigger clubs cannot do when they want to make a stand......... like the Arsenal black scarf movement when " Stay out of that Ground " posters were on walls all over North London....yet they still got their 60k every week as their real fans can easily be replaced by tourists and part timers..... When a club has a loyal following 35k can be reduced to 14k at the drop of a hat if need be.....as we proved last night.....something owners of clubs with a loyal fanbase need to remember ! And Max ive seen Sunderlands " proper support " over years mate.............glass half full or glass half empty springs to mind Edited January 22, 2014 by gnasher16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can't sugar coat it with that East End Boys Together crap. Even the City fans knew it was not worth going to a foregone conclusion Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
