Zatman Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 “Firstly, we haven’t got £15m to spend under the fair play rules,” Sullivan said in an interview with the KUMB West Ham podcast. “Secondly, he failed a medical at Hull a couple of years ago. They say he has no ligaments in his knee, who knows? To sign a player for £15m is a big risk. He could go on for years but knowing our luck his knee will go in his first game and that’s the end of it. “If we had £100m to spend we may say: ‘We’ll spend £15m and gamble one-sixth of our budget’. But it’s not one-sixth of our budget, it’d smash our budget to bits. And he didn’t keep Queens Park Rangers up. If he’d kept them up single-handedly you might say it was different – and a few of those goals were penalties. When we played Queens Park Rangers last year they had to win to stand any chance of staying up and he wasn’t very good.” http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/aug/20/charlie-austin-david-sullivan-west-ham-qpr From the man that signed Andy Carroll Austin is thinking of taking legal action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 He should. Those comments, whilst valid or invalid can seriously damage his career. Appalling, from a man in his position...but I wouldn't expect anything less from that cretin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Done. 16k long way to go. Need to get Joey or Glaston (wherever he may be) to post the link on the Spuds forum. They'll lap it up. Or that Man U fella. Can't remember his name. I'm just going to call him Ernie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Fans who demanded they play "the West 'Am way" now moaning that they need to do the basics right and not look to play too much attacking football. Brilliant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Too many injuries for them atm, had to start with Nolan today, nowhere near good enough for this league now. When Sakho couldn't continue they put Maiga on who I thought left them last season. If they put out an 11 with Kouyate, Song (if he signs), Payet and upfront Sakho and Valencia I'd be surprised if they were down there in May.

The_Rev Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Another red card. I wonder what the record is in a full season.. Arsenal got 12 in 2001/02. They still won the double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Laughable Their fans are on a par with Liverpool fans Sack Allardyce a proven midtable prem manager and then slam the manager they have recently recruited because the team isn't doing the "basics" correctly Joke of a club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 For people who thought Amavi was bad for the goal today looks like Cresswell had a total shocker today, at fault for first two goals so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted August 24, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24, 2015 Has Andy Carroll ever actually been that good when he is fit? Ridiculously overrated IMO To be fair, he's not overrated. Everybody thinks he's bang average when fit and that's exactly what he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 One of my best friends (a West Ham fan) has been telling me for years that Andy Carroll is a better player than Benteke. I have given up arguing with him to be honest. I've just docked him twenty football knowledge points in my brain and take everything he says less seriously.

Arj Guy Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 A few West Ham fans are now saying that the football isn't direct enough!!!! And they got Fat Sam sacked because of his style of football and wanting 'the west ham way'. Unbelievable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
