Stifler

I think that’s a little unfair. It’s pretty much been confirmed that he was a big reason why we linked up with Adidas. The Adidas deal also happened to be the biggest shirt manufacturer deal outside of the top 6 in England, as well as one of Adidas’ biggest with only the European giants earning more. The fee is a minimum of £30m per year, uplifting to a maximum of £40m per year, compared to our previous £5m per year with Castoe that could be increased by hitting sales targets, but unlikely due to how little revenue the club earned from shirt and merchandise sales deals were structured under Ashley. To put it into perspective, Noon now pay us more money to be a sleeve sponsor than Castore paid us. On top of this the Adidas deal also brought us into the elite fold clubs before the likes of Benfica, Celtic, and Ajax were. They even pay us more than they do to Aston Villa, who’s owner owns a significant share in Adidas. The Adidas deal also opened up new merchandise opportunities for us. The training merchandise, Terrace icon, SPZL, and Gazzelle ranges all proving popular, not to mention last years retro release of the 95-97 home shirt, and the upcoming retro release of the 95-96 away shirt and training merchandise. That simply wouldn’t have been possible with any other manufacturer. Nike have done a good job with Spurs and PSG, but the majority of it is just releasing stupid amounts of alternative shirts, and their Air Jordan tie up, which wouldn’t really work with our fanbase.

Win this and we go above Real Madrid.

Aye, tomorrow night is our 4th seed at home fixture.

Absolutely no one wants a new stadium is Gosforth Park, Silverlink, or Newburn Industrial estate.

That’s a sad reflection on him, it shows that he had no idea how to change it and just made changes for the sake of doing so.

I said the same thing. The whole thing about him having total control over transfers is stupid and is just putting us in an impossible position for when he sacks us off for when the likes of Liverpool or Man Utd come along for him.

Could have got Kubo in instead of Elanga. I said that we overpaid for him but everyone raved about him. All he does is run to edge of the box then stop and try and play 1 2’s. We could have kept Miggy, saved ourselves £50m, and still been able to get a goal or 2 each season out of him. Barnes who is good for 20 minutes as an impact sub, and Gordon who’s sacked it off because it takes him too much mental strength to motivate himself or to stop himself from being wound up that he ends up getting sent off for something stupid.

We still had a very forgiving fixtures list when we went on a run last season, not so much this season, it looks very tough.

Not true, even our last Premier League home game against Fulham we were poor. The final 10 minutes and Fulham falling apart is what won us the game.

Fucking done now. We are clearing picked hams where we try and others where we don’t. Sick of the same players getting away with putting in shit performances, looking at you Gordon, and Barnes. He can’t find his way around a low block. Absolutely sick of it, the whole team’s attitude is wrong and that’s on him. He doesn’t have it in him to take us to the next level.

Not just the afternoon, our whole season. We have picked games where we want to try and others where we don’t. An absolutely fucking disgusting attitude to have.

The team has an attitude problem, and in all of his time here he hasn’t found a way past the low block. It used to be the same clubs we never put in performances against, now it’s anyone but the top 6 clubs.

It’s ok Tonali, you just waste 30 seconds slowly going across the centre of midfield there.

We aren’t. We are consistently not turning up against team who we think are lesser than us. This is an attitude problem.

Changes for changes sake. Had no one on the left, brought Barnes on 20 minutes later and had him on the right with Murphy.

Only way we would have a chance of scoring is if West Ham shit the bed.

No one, not 1 player out there is even trying.

Fuck off Schar.

This is disgusting.

That looked onside.

Fuck off.

Took 20 minutes for him to realise that we have fuck all on the left to stretch the game.

Damp and cold in the winter.

Since West Ham last won at home, people have had a 1 night stand, lass has go pregnant, and the kid has been born. Along come us.

Aye, no idea what this formation is meant to be. It seems like chances for the sake of it.
