Enter Lady Brady
McLaren:How now! what news?
Lady Brady
David has almost supp'd: why have you left the chamber?
McLaren
Hath he ask'd for me?
Lady Brady
Know you not he has?
McLaren
We will proceed no further in this business:
Football has honour'd me of late; and I have bought
Golden opinions from all sorts of people,
Which would be worn now in their newest gloss,
Not cast aside so soon.
Lady Brady
Was the hope drunk
Wherein you dress'd yourself? hath it slept since?
And wakes it now, to look so green and pale
At what it did so freely? From this time
Such I account thy love. Art thou afeard
To be the same in thine own act and valour
As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that
Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life,
And live a coward in thine own esteem,
Letting 'I dare not' wait upon 'I would,'
Like the poor cat i' the adage?
McLaren
Prithee, peace:
I dare do all that may become a man;
Who dares do more is none.
LADY Brady
What beast was't, then,
That made you break this enterprise to me?
When you durst do it, then you were a man;
And, to be more than what you were, you would
Be so much more the man. Nor time nor place
Did then adhere, and yet you would make both:
They have made themselves, and that their fitness now
Does unmake you. I have given suck, and know
How tender 'tis to love the babe that milks me:
I would, while it was smiling in my face,
Have pluck'd my nipple from his boneless gums,
And dash'd the brains out, had I so sworn as you
Have done to this.
McLaren
If we should fail?
LADY Brady
West Ham fail!
But screw your courage to the sticking-place,
And West Ham will not fail.
McLaren
I am settled, and bend up
Each corporal agent against West Ham’s terrible feet.
Exeunt
so stani looks like the majority of fans thought noble was one of our best players this season by coming 3rd in the hammer of the year award how does it feel for u to look so stupid
ReplyDeleteHast thouforsaken me?
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking. Not a good idea, I realize, but what better way to forget about the shite we've been asked to deal with than to dream stuff up?
ReplyDeleteLet us assume that SuGo actually realize they screwed up badly in hiring Grant. The Telegraph has an article that says he wasn't their first choice last summer anyway. The article says Bilic and McLaren turned them down. It also says Big Sam secretly agreed a deal in January but SuGo decided to stick with The Idiot (my new name for him) after O'Neill backed out. So Grant was clearly a back up plan not once, but twice.
They cannot afford to make that mistake again. They know that. While a Hughton or Dave Jones are capable, it won't accomplish certain things they are likely desperate for. Namely, good press and to rejuvenate the supporters. DiCanio would make a splash, but an inexperienced manager is also a risk they cannot take. Poyet? Good work with Brighton, but not worthy of a neon sign. Bilic? Supporters love him, but he's never managed at club level, has he?
While a big name manager will want a lot of money, the right appointment would likely create a surge in season ticket renewals and interest.
Ka-Ching!
In fact, the right appointment could cause enough hope that even two years in the championship would not be considered unacceptable because there could be a feeling of finally building properly, in a way that could carry us into the OS on a high.
Ka-Ching!
The right appointment could see us in the same light as Man City after they moved into their new digs, attracting a Zillionaire owner.
The right appointment is Martin O'Neill.
So for no other reason than I have zero to lose, I'm gonna PREDICT that he will join us.
Fred my dear, firstly it was not the majority of fans. Secondly, he's a fans favourite so it's obvious he will get votes completely unrelated to on-field performances. Thirdly, majority of fans liked G&S and agreed with Grant's appointment, so the majority can be wrong and quite spectacularly. Fourthly, I have plenty of support on here so am content. And lastly, they say coming 2nd is being the first loser ...Noble couldn't even do that he's so crap! So one of us is looking stupid Fred, and it's definitely not me!
ReplyDeleteRemember, if it were not for the points Noble was directly at fault for us losing, we'd be staying up. He and you can live with that.
It shows how low WHU have sunk when McClaren gives us a knock back. Still, he's completely correct. Hughton might give it go - after all he's work with twats before.

Name all the games were he has lost us points then as I know referees have robbed us of 4 points maybe 5 the amount of chances cole has missed parker thinking hes better then he is has lost us points, gabbs and da costa have lost us points and he maybe a fan favourite but this the first time he has been in the top 3 and rob green always comes second
