West Ham Are Safe!


At times like this, it always pays to look to the Bard. So, to Macbeth Act 3 Scene 4:

Enter Sullivan, the First Murderer at the door.

Gold: There's blood on thy face.

Sullivan:'Tis Burnley's then.

Gold: 'Tis better thee without than Burnley within. Is Burnley dispatch'd?

Sullivan: My lord, Burnley's throat is cut; that Laws did for them.

Gold: Laws art the best o' the cut-throats, yet he's as good that did the like for Hull. If Dowie didst it, then Dowie art the nonpareil.

Sullivan: Most royal sir, Hull cannot escape.

Gold: And Burnley's safe?

Sullivan: Ay, my good lord: safe in a ditch Burnley bides, with twenty trenched gashes on their heads; the least a death to a Premiership club.

Gold: Get thee gone; Zola still lives. Tomorrow we'll hear ourselves again.

  2. No, a guy by the name of Shakespeare wrote Macbeth. He's written a few other good ones: Hamlet, King Lear, Measure for Measure, Othello, The Merchant of Venice...

  4. I would like to say "So foul and fair a day I have not seen" but sadly our survival has left me particularly cold. Perhaps it has something to do with Gollivans unhealthy preoccupation with doing a bit of property development on Dunsinane
