A bit unfair that as it depends on which aspect of their game you're looking at. I thought they offered less going forward than I expected but on the flip side they defended better than I expected.
Had a gander at their forum and it seems some have a low opinion of our fanbase these days based on about a dozen comments in the post match thread on here. Apparently we're self-entitled knobheads because the posters in question didn't spend enough column inches wanking off over the opposition, should've apologised profusely for being given a soft penalty, and the so-called good relationship we have with their fans is just us being patronising twats. Fuck me, I hope I never end up judging an entire fanbase based on the comments of a few people online. I wouldn't mind but the posts weren't THAT bad in the main compared to other post-match threads on here and arguably gave the Hammers more credit than our own team get following a routine 4-0 win ffs. And as much as I like West Ham and their fans, to talk about self-entitlement when many of them turned their noses up at Allardyce because he didn't play football the "West Ham way" smacks of pot, kettle, and black to me.
You can’t judge opposition supporters based on a dozen or so forum commments - they don’t reflect the general fanbase. I quit KUMB many years ago - especially the allardyce era, the amount of crap being spewed was embarrassing.
