See Wolves, Burnley, Southampton,Swansea to see that it's happened many times before. When is it going to be our turn ?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Because of our owners and the reverance we're held in in terms of being a traditional big club, once we become a top eight team we should have a better chance of establishing ourselves as such and pushing forward. A lot of it will depend on backing though, if we're just relying on scouting and hoping we can keep producing our own players through the academy to maintain a position as one of the better teams over a sustained period then it will be tough.

They are decent, quite decent but as a unit they are all overachieving, long may it not continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 West Ham seem to have an ongoing association with the Czech Republic at the moment. Remember Ludek Miklosko and Tomas Repka back in the good old days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted October 29, 2021 Moderator Share Posted October 29, 2021 I read that they're looking to expand the Olympic stadium. How does that work? They rent it don't they, it's not theirs to start building extensions onto? If I have to pay for this, I will not be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penguin Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Gutted they are doing well, hope it all collapses. West Ham fans are by far the biggest words removed in the league in any interaction I’ve been unfortunate enough to have with them in person. The whole stadium at the tax payers expense is just icing on the cake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wont get top 4 and the system is designed that if they do it wont last hence the Newcastle protests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think i'd rather anyone. There should be only one claret and blue team competing near the top and in Europe and it sure as hell ain't them. Absolute myth of a club. Entire history 2 FA cups. Highest league finish ever - 3rd. But it's ok cos they 'WoN THe WoRlD CuP' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
