West Ham Pre-Match Thread... Here we go!

[cibaman]

Not where I am it's not.

Assume the ground staff cover the pitch until an hour or so before kick off anyway.

Still, we did have one called off earlier this season.

Don't we have covers and drainage?? We had one called of because we had gale force winds reminiscent of being on a North Sea trawler !!!!

It wont be called off. But it might not be in great shape after the Villa game and yesterday's training session

Standard manager's excuse now when they get beat by City.

As you say, the team Utd put out in the Old Trafford Derby cost more than City.

I am trying to decide whether to bother with the fornicators on Sunday Supplement today.

Shush your noise. That's a secret, don't you know.

It's just embarrassing that it's not getting called out by anyone. Journalism is just rife with inaccuracies and no one does anything about it. If that was two years ago and Mancini made a claim like that he'd be bombarded in his presser, and be hung out to dry in tomorrows papers.

It is honestly so so so boring hearing the same shit week in week out. We're constantly expected to do well, lambasted when we don't, and when we do it's "do they deserve it given their funds". They can all kiss my arse!

Can't believe the amount of negative press city are getting this morning, from ffp raining down on city to greg dyke saying it will be bad for english football if city win the title this afternoon. I would (keegan esq) love for city just to smash west ham and then refuse to do any post match interviews.

Just suffered a hour of SSN the whole programme was slanted against us apart from Twicher's son who now is a fan and says we deserve to win it. Wonder what his agenda is?

Anyway balls to them we're Man City let's get this job done.

I can believe it. And I enjoy it! If we win the league today, all this stuff makes it all the more sweeter. You can just picture them all squirming in their seats watching us, or even switching off and giving it "I can't watch this" as we all go absolutely mental.

I grew up in the 90s as a supporter of what felt like minority club at a school in Trafford. City were a cool cult-like club, we had something the Rags didn't have even though they were winning everything in sight. The press never spoke about us really and when they did it was to give a little snippet about loyal supporters but not much else. Now the press do talk about us but we're portrayed differently. But that still makes us the cool cult-like club, the subculture you're not supposed to follow, the bad guys, and that still suits me fine. We've never been sheep that follow the mainstream. We can think for ourselves and not have to worry about what people say about us. I never want it to change. I never want to be loved. We're cooler and more underground being that way. I don't want glory hunters and day trippers and tourists hanging on to every positive word the press say about us, only here because we're winning and the media love us. I just want real Blues following us, I want the media to be true to how they really feel, I don't want fake adulation when deep down they hate us.

Fuck em!

This is where the friendship ends
Aha, woahoh, gonna get along without you now
Aha, woahoh, we're gonna get along without you now..."!
