Anyone believe that Sullivan has contacted Lampard to determine if he would be interested in the West Ham managers job if he kicks Potter into touch?  Now Sullivan is capable of doing this as he has no regard for the opinion of fans but I think its a a media fiction to get attention during the inter...

This England side aint winning any competitions under the unimaginative Tuchel. Both Southgate and Carsley’s England sides were better esp Carsleys. He was far less inclined to pick older, past their best like Kane, Rashford, Henderson, Burn etc.  I dont want Bowen getting injured so happy for the o...

Lets hope the Fan Advisory Board that meets with Brady have some intelligent, articulate representatives who have done their homework. They will need to fully understand and have the data on other club’s scouting networks, recruitment infrastructure, how the organisation structure  at clubs like Bou...

A 4.5 out if 10 window as things stand. Magassa if a success could transform it to a 6 / 10 but based on what was needed in light of other club’s spending / strengthening and the fact that we have struggled in the league for 3 seasons, Sullivan and the board have confirmed that its short term object...

Ballon D’Igor to follow Ballon Dawson?  Not a chance. He’s shit isnt he? 

Haha SPLATT its Igor Julio 

Silly old cvnt Alf

Saw this heading on the OS. Thought it might say:
(1) He’s a fat cvnt
(2) He’s crap in the air
(3) He’s painfully slow
(4) He was Brighton’s 5th choice CB
(5) He gets injured a lot 


 

The cost of Sullivan’s insistence on appointing Loppy is still hanging around our neck like a huge turd in the form of Kilman and Guido.  A classic example of “Creating the storm then complaining when it rains”.  Sullivan’s feeling a bit better tonight though after not being able to sell Paqueta, he...

Yep saw some Podcast on YouTube that quoted a Brighton fan saying Igor was slow and not very good in the air. A Sullivan pick based on his availability and moreover price ( cheap loan) rather than paying £17 mill that Toulouse wanted for Cresswell? Of course it was.

Its true Alfs that we as fans want the youth players to make it that it can interfere with objectivity ( is that what is also called cognitive dissonance ?). Potts, as you say, has not “pulled up any trees” or caught the eye particilarly but as no 6 his job is more about the team, working hard etc. ...

As Stubbo says we dont know. Sullivan might be positioning us financially to withstand future PSR and / or cash flow impacts. The whole “ prudent” accounting principle.  Trouble is Sullivan is not trustworthy or honest or transparent in any way. Never has been. I suppose you can level that at many f...

Potter’s has really fvcked up on Potts imo. Like so many managers we see fail down the years ( England managers particularly come to mind ) they have this belief in past reputations or history and “experience” over what they see with their eyes.  Potts played pre season but soon as the real matches ...

Igor reportedly turns with the speed of the Titanic. Brighton’s 5th choice CB. Palace muat have been desperate to get any CB in too. But we nabbed this bloke from them. The cheapest option versus Cresswell and geezer from Chelsea. Sullivan squad filler. Spent £90 million and got £70 in apparently? G...

Igor was the hunchback in Young Frankenstein. A perfect West Ham signing. Seriously tho, worse than I thought. Sullivan trouserinv the Aguerd money and no one coming in is what will happen.  He trousered £17 million from Kudus deal and now Aguerd fee. Does it every window. Spends some but is always ...

Igor? Marty Feldman as a CB will be interesting. Suppose he can spot danger quicker than most players

Like many things in life, its usually a combination of things. Tactics and formations a big part of it but it is hard in the Prem Lge nowadays without players that are strong, athletic and pacy. Fernandes helped and changing JWP for Irvine was key too. Him and Soucek or Guido always likely to run ou...

Sullivan will be in full cash flow protection mode now having had to buy 2 last week.  I suspect Aguerd will go for £19 million with a decent immediate payment and Sully will look for a loan. Hence Cresswell wont happen unless Toulouse accept a loan to buy. Everything we have done has been on the “n...

I thought Irvine has looked decent in most of his cameo appearances. A better version of Soucek in his work on and off the ball but very unlikely to match Tonny’s goal threat. Would he be happy as an impact sub? If he was ok , he might be worth retaining. Did well in his minutes today as the fame be...

Villa looking a bit pony all of a sudden. Suspect it wont last for long as Emery is a decent manager but looks to me like they are suffering with the effects of PSR which has restricted their transfer ambitions.  The Prem Lge demands you freshen up a squad every season really. Yes Liverpool didnt do...

See where are at game 5. If we see the improvement sustained for another couple of games it might then be that we have “turned a corner”. But to really know will probably mean waiting until xmas assuming we dont immediately go back into a “downward death spiral”. The transfer window needs to get us ...

I had zero faith. Never have I been so sure we’d lose. A back 4 and decent subs and we end up winning comfortably. Funny ol game. Special mentions for Summerville who changed the game. Irvine did really well too. Fernandes tired 2nd half but looks a good buy amd good pwrfoemances from Diouf and our ...

I cannot understand but do admire those being positive. I assume they believe a draw or win for us is pure blind faith and nothing else? Because its been a while since I have been this resigned to a loss. You cannot compete in the Prem Lge, trying to play a possession game, when you play 2 in any mi...

Based on what we’ve seen of Paqueta last 2 seasons and even 3 games of this season ( after bet fix allegations cleared ) he is losing the ball far too often and struggling with the lack of time and space. But thats imo because he’s not played in his best position deeper as an 8. Potter, like Moyes a...

JWP, Soucek, Guido. Start with 2 or more of them = a battering.  Start with 2 of them = a  clear loss. All we can hope for is Potter subbing them a lot earlier ( he now has another option or 2 with the signings, I doubt he will start one let alone both of them) because any of the 3 like with Paqueta...
