Questions I Would Like Duxbury To Answer


1. How serious was Ashton's original injury?
2. Was the original treatment flawed?
3. Was Ashton pressed to return too early?
4. Why was Ikea given a consultancy job?
5. What was your involvement in the Tevez affair?
6. Why did we agree to pay Sheffield United compensation if we were convinced that we had done nothing wrong?
7. Why have you shifted your position so often on the club's financial health?
8. Why did you give interviews to two West Ham friendly blog sites rather than in an open press conference where more challenging questions might have been asked?
9. What does Zola think of Ashton?
10. Why is Ashton allowed to work with his own medical team? What does this say about the quality of the club's medical team?
11. How do you expect us to win games in the Premiership without a strike force?
12. Given your insistence that Ashton is going nowhere, why has his shirt been given to Stanislas?
13. Why did we gamble all that money on Savio when there was a desperate need to replace Bellamy with a proven Premiership striker?
14. Why are we paying Nani a salary to source players if we don't have the funds to buy them?
15. What is the deal with Jimenez? Is he using us as a shop window to find another club in 12 months time or do we genuinely expect to be in a position to buy him ourselves?
16. Who is going to play at right back this season?
17. Given you have been a central figure in the Tevez affair and the BG takeover, should you not now do the decent thing and resign given the mess we find ourselves in? Please explain why resignation would not be appropriate.

Any questions I have forgotten that KUMB and Ian Dale omitted to ask?

The shirt was worn by stanislas, because the competition would only allow numbers up to 23, and so he had ashton's number for that game.

Apart form question 13 regarding Savio, all those question just cement the fact that you get off on ridiculing Ashton and West Ham!

Seriously, do you HONESTLY think they are viable questions? You sound like you think Ashtons injury was "put on" and that you think the board and/or management lied to us and he was in fact fine, they would have rather just paid his wages and let him sit at home watching TV!

Your posts are ridiculous!

To be fair I think questions 4,6 and 12 have been answered I don't like the answers to 4 and 6 but 12 sounded plausible other than that I'd still like to see the public burning of Terry Brown with Dux used as a firelighter

Haha, are you jealous Duxbury did not give you an interview Hammerspursfan? This site is so rubbish Dux would not bat an eyelid at you! He only talks to real sites such as kumb and Iain Dale's site. Where as your opinions and postings are reconized to be no better than toilet crust.

You are quite simply the most ill-informed and inane blogger on West Ham that I have come across. I suspect that the majority of readers would agree. You aren't funny, clever or insightful. You don't promote debate of any real worth. For your own sake and ours would you please stop publishing this witless drivel.

Sad prick why don't you just enjoy your holiday

I agree -Duxberry has cost the club £25 million in fines and compensation. Also he comes out with blaming eggs for all the problems - at least Eggs sanctioned purchases, more than he has done. Finally, he says that BG put the club in it as his investment was in the form of loans, and not his savings as first thought - isn't it a CEO's responsibility to do due - dilligence - and know basic information like this and where the monies is coming from and liabilities etc....? Answer Yes! He is pulling the wooleys over all your eyes, the only thing he's ever been interested in is keeping his own job.....

Quite the reverse 1559, I suspect the injury was and is much more serious than we have been told.

2124, I am thanks. Quebec today. Done Niagra, Toronto and Montreal so far. Driving through Maine the day after tomorrow, then down to Salem, Boston, Cape Cod for a few nights before finishing in New York. But twenty minutes of an evening and 15 of a morning catching up on all things West Ham is a pleasant addition to the day.

Wow you really surpassed yourself on this one, some of these questions show why you weren't invited to put issues to Duxbury.
1. Very
2. Yes
3. Probably - Curbs Out
4. Beyond moronic
5. He worked for the club?
6. To try and shore up financial projections, should we have lost it would have been worse.
7. Let me see, Bankrupt Owner, Bankrupt Bank, Bankrupt Country, Debts, Loans, still trying to make us viable to a buyer?
8. Because they would have to put up with some piss poor caliber of questions? At least KUMB have some quality control.
9. Not enough clearly if the fucker won't get fit.
10. Well you call him Primadeano for a start... maybe it says something about his OCD too.
11. Wait until the transfer window shuts eh. I'm sure someone who has been around as long as he has knows at least as much about football as knee jerking, ill informed, football bloggers.
12. Already answered - that kind of remark doesn't do your credibility any favours there does it?
13. The need was only desperate if we were to qualify for Europe, which whilst it would have been nice, we don't have the money to strengthen the squad enough to cope.
14. Another ridiculous statement considering we are working to bring in transfers. Tell you what sack Nani and lets get out Curbs Panini sticker book with only Newcastle completed again shall we?
Maybe Zola has a more up to date one?
15. Who the fuck cares? He's playing in Claret and Blue this season, we have an option to buy providing we can ensure the club is on a financially secure ground. One panic at a time or you'll have a heart attack ;)
16. No one, we going 3-5-2!
Wait and see eh?
17. I am not an apologist for Duckers but come on! Then who is going to run the club?
If he fails to deliver this season he has to go, but the off loading of expensive crocks, the acquisition of Zola and Clarke have been steps in the right direction. We can't change the Tevez thing and we are in a very tricky position at the moment.
Do you honestly think he wants to do himself out of a job?

I honestly wish I had taken the anti-depressants before reading this as, even though I am convinced you write this drivel to wind people up, it still infuriates me.
