Colocho

He scored from the wing? Thought he was a CAM?

 

Fuck off.

 

Best goal I've ever seen.

Scored from the wing, where he belongs.

Not good enough. Ben Arfa should take his place in the side.

He scored from the wing? Thought he was a CAM?

Surely if a release clause does exist it would have been a stipulation of Ba/his agent signing for us..?

Has it been confirmed that he has a release clause?  After reading Karen Brady's bitchy piece in the paper the other day i supposed he could do.

How would Karen Brady know all the in's and out's of Demba's contract with Newcastle?

Surely whatever has been agreed between Newcastle and Demba has nothing to do with West Ham as they stopped been his employer as soon as the release clause was activated

 

Because people talk to each other, i'm sure within football a lot of people will know a lot about players contracts, we ourselves have no doubt used this.

 

Heres my conspiracy theories,

 

Newcastle want Tomkins but don't want to pay the money, Brady and West Ham hate MA and NUFC for the Ba deal plus big Sam sticking his rod in, HR has strong links with WH, Targeting BA keeps Spurs fans wanting and thinking they will get a goal scorer, HR will highlight the possibility of a clause for other teams to take advantage of.......all of the above add up to a load of shit stirring and underhand tactics.

Very plausible, and probably the case...

one last thing before I ignore this thread for the rest of jan

why would Ashley agree to a release clause? and how exactly was Ba in a position to demand a release clause when there wasn't exactly a big que of clubs trying to grab his signature when it was free and with his dodgy knee it wasn't exactly the strongest bargaining position in history

 

He only wants to make 300% profit remember. No more, no less.

I'm sure they'd be happy to make more.

It never happened.

Pardew on talksport  just now saying its 9m release clause.

Are you winding us up?

They put a £7m release clause in his contract? 

Not a chance, remember your 300% malarky?

Selling him for £7m would present a 300% profit if we spent less than £2.3m signing him...

They put a £7m release clause in his contract? 

We should bid £6m if £8m is available for this window.

He's from Basildon? Sign him up.

 

Basildon FFS, bet he's from Chafford Hundred the posh tosser

Chafford Hundred is a good 10 miles from Basildon? Apparently went to the Chalvedon School, which is in Basildon...

Not convinced they have any intention to sell the naming rights.

He's from Basildon? Sign him up.

Seems like a likeable fella. Bit of a cockney twang to his voice too.

Really? 

Should be rested against Blackburn, imo.

That logo is quite the eyesore. Hopefully they will come up with a way to integrate it better within the shirt design for next season, although there doesn't seem to be much flexibility when it comes to their branding.

 

Hopefully the use of red on the logo will encourage Puma to bring back the red numbering.

But then we'll had loads of red and white on our kit! 

West Ham fan in the office reckons he's been their best player this season...

Ryder's only source is the PR department at the club.

when will he be back from Acon

If Senegal get knocked out in the group stages (final game 29 Jan) he could be back for the Blackburn game (1 Feb).

If they reach the final (12 Feb) he won't be back for us until Wolves at home (25 Feb).

Obertan up front? No. Would personally go for the following...

-------------------------- Krul

Simpson/Raylor - Williamson - Coloccini - Santon

Raylor/Obertan - Cabaye - Vuckic - Gutierrez

----------------------- Ben Arfa

------------------------- Best

Not many better midfielders in Ligue 1 right now. Would be a quality signing. Very exciting news.

Imperious tonight.
