Burnley at home - More practice for the Championship!

Is the FA Cup trying to tell us something? Three rounds and three home draws against teams in the Championship. Burnley are now coming to Upton Park in the next round. Win that and, never mind the road to Wembley, things are looking promising should be go down!

Sorry mate (or am I?) But been checking out some ofyour comments and stuff for a while now. And to be totally honest it ain't too difficult to see where all the negative stuff comes from regarding West Ham. You are a supporter yeah?

Well I been doing the "West Ham" thing for 40 odd yrs now, was born there am still a season ticket holder, and attend (endure) as many games as humanly possible (home and away.) But I've got to admit that at this time we are (for want of a better word) Shite! but I still love em!! Crave them!! And when they win worship them....The way you talk is sometimes "ANTI" West Ham or are you just trying to be controversial? For me matey as a West Ham fan that don't work.

Get behind em, love em, follow em, live with em, but most of all FECKIN SUPPORT THEM!! and stop having a dig! If you want perfection go support feckin Manure or someone!! You want life Stick with the claret and blue!!

Burnley......We'll Pi$$ em!!

Why do you want us in the Championship HF? I know you maybe using rhetoric here but I get the impression from your overall messages that you would want it...or at the very least you have given up the ghost of us staying the prem. Why?

Gibbo, it does say "looking good SHOULD we go down". It is a fall back position and I'd rather see us beating these Championship sides than losing to them. In truth though, we have not looked shit hot for 45 minutes against both Barnsley and Forest.

As for you Stani, that is a stupid comment for you. I refer you to the question at the start and the word SHOULD.

Fulham 4-0 Tottenham...first half!

It's not stupid and I'm not being cheeky. You're comparing me to the crap other people throw at you i.e. youre a spurs fan, dont support us etc. I am asking because it seems you wouldnt mind us being in the Champ and was wondering why. Dont accuse me of stuff.

It's just from posts like this, your lack of concern that Grant may take us down, and your preoccupation with our cup run that suggests this and makes my question a perfectly reasonable one. Youre allowed to think we would be better off in the Champ but I want to know why.

Hello gibbo, good to see you mate. unfortunately this guys an arse, loves to wind up his own people for some very strange and deep rooted reason that I haven't been able to fathom.

Hammersfan said...

Where do I say we would be better off in the Championship exactly? Find the evidence and quote it!

I do say that we wouldn't be miserable most weekends, but that's not saying we would be better off. I have also said that I would back us to bounce back quickly so it might not be the disaster some people believe, but again that's not saying we would be better off in the Championship.

We would not be better off in the Championship, but if we are heading that way, it's nice to know that we can beat the opposition. Simple enough to understand?

Hammersfan said...

Claret! So you have a name now Gibbo is in the house! Finding enough courage to give yourself a handle now Gibbo is in the house, eh? Is it Gibson or gibbon I wonder?

You show your class for all to see, what a nice way to welcome a new poster, with a insult.

Hammersfan said...

You are not a new poster. And friend Gibbo has been "checking out" the site "for a while now". I'm sure he is not as sensitive as you are! But the way you leap to his defence is enlightening. Bit of a crush going on there perhaps? Breaking cover to let him know you are here and now sticking up for your chum. It's ok, it's not only Dale who welcomes people of your persuasion Claret! Mind you, I expect you only understand 50% of the offside law! ; }

Sorry I just thought that being a host that a minimum requirement would be politeness and good manners, but obviously it's not something your familiar with. As they say manners maketh the man.
