Mr Logic Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Completely fail to see how revelling in anothers misfortune could possible benefit in any way, especially as it is in opposition to the widely accepted concept of 'What goes around comes around', or, 'As you sow, so shall you reap.' Considering the state of our own club empathy might be a far more appropriate response. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could say the same about Spurs, but this is a competition, everyone else is the enemy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHAM deserve everything that's coming to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcmk Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I'm sure i knew in the past, but how exactly was Tevez ineligible, his registration not come through in time on transfer deadline day? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I'm sure i knew in the past, but how exactly was Tevez ineligible, his registration not come through in time on transfer deadline day? Owned by a third party, not the club (not even a stake) which is illegal iirc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right, it was only a few weeks ago we were walking out of Upon Park having the piss ripped out of us with "Where's yer Keegan gone", "There's only one Mike Ashley" and "3-1 to the Mafia" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 They already got their three points off of us. I'd reckon a buyer would be in for them quicker than us tbh. London is a big draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Good potential investment depending on debts, buy them cheap, move to the Olympic stadium, flog Upton Park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 They already got their three points off of us. I'd reckon a buyer would be in for them quicker than us tbh. London is a big draw. If they gave the club away then yeah. But I'd think Gudmundsson would want at least his £85 million back. Then there's the £140 million debt and continuing losses of around £15 million a season and a possible £30 million payout for the Tevez afair. In that case, I doubt it. If NUFC are worth £260 (based on revenue and debt) then by the same kind of calculation West Ham are worth virtually nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hands up all who have great sympathy for West Ham's predicament ? Oh dear - no-one ? Ah right - we have the same sympathy for them as all southerners have shown for us...... Completely fail to see how revelling in anothers misfortune could possible benefit in any way, especially as it is in opposition to the widely accepted concept of 'What goes around comes around', or, 'As you sow, so shall you reap.' I think theres more than a bit of West 'Aym reaping what THEY'VE been sowing matey. Be interesting seeing how much support and sympathy the supporters of London clubs have shown for us. If 606 & Talk Spurt are a good indication (I'd say they were) then sneering and laughing at Newcastle's miasfortunes is a national pastime. We are well within our rights to give a bit back. WHU aren't one of the worst offenders though, I'd agree with that much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearer9 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Ilunga, him and DiMichele are on loans so unless they have recalls we can't do diddly squat. Di Michele is a 32 year old journeyman Italian striker who's had one good game for West Ham. I'd be livid if we went for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Oh I totally agree DiMichele is a real journeyman had a good spell with Palermo but did nothing at Torino of note didn't break double figures. I was just saying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
