I absolutely love this. Your Mrs is a wise woman.

 

So, so sad. When the news broke, I was getting ready to take Mrs Oh Dear II out to lunch. I started to explain to her just how good he was, how much he meant to every West Ham supporter lucky enough to have watched him. Not that I needed to, she already knew. She simply said, quite innocently, “When...

Lloyd Honeyghan's dismantling of Don Curry has to be one of the biggest upsets of all time. Kirkland Laing beating Roberto Duran in Detroit must push that close Curry was the P4P and everyone thought the next GOAT, Invincible to anyone, Honeyghan wasn't even considered the best contender.  Duran wa...

Could we set up a who supports who table ?  off the top of my head, and apologies for any missing names......

Bonds, Brooking and Devonshire are my top 3 Hammers I have seen in the flesh, I did catch Bobby Moore, but that was towards the end of his career with us, I started going in 71/72, and to me as a kid, it was absolutely magical Same. it isn't just how good they were, they embodied what it is to almo...

I really hope I’m wrong and he proves me otherwise. He didn’t play badly yesterday, but he just doesn’t look like a top-level player right now. It reminded me of when a decent non-league side has a good day against Premier League opposition in the FA Cup, solid, but not quite at that elite level. Yo...

I can't think of any other player who was so bad to get that chant?

I’m not sure we can jail a Prince of the Ruling House

so now he’s not a Prince he can go to jail 

A mate sat next to her on a short haul flight once.

He said it was difficult to avert his eyes.

Sorry, I haven't watched a lot (any) football this season.

How bad is this Kilman? He's mentioned in every post. 

Gary Breen for me. I was a better player than him.

Disappointed, but not to disappointed as any 'skins fan would have accepted making the play-offs back in September.

Onwards and upwards next season.



 

People who say "Can I get...." People who drive all the way round a roundabout in the outside lane Cost of living  As I get older I find I dislike most things about modern life, but these are my three most irrational ones Like Russ, people who say "Can I get........."  they're f...

Oliver Reed on After Dark.

will be in Philly for the game but have to say i'm not confident. We haven't played well in either post season game, our passing game is non-existent despite having one of the best receiving groups in the league, and we now have injury problems at corner, so Daniels could have a field day unless we...

I did, I can show the screenshots from numerous channels during the week. Problem is, nothing's been achieved yet and we're on the road again next week I did too, based on nothing more than blind faith though! ".................fight for ol' DC"   Quinn & Coach Whitt faced and beat th...

I don't think the English game can complain to loudly, they've allowed our national league to become the hobby of Arab and Russian money.

 

Billy Bonds, there will never be another like him.

I am blessed to have seen him play

Start at 1985 and work backwards, our team was always stuffed with these type of players. But they wanted to play and gave their all for the shirt. Admittedly at this time they were surrounded by some true talent and that must of helped. On the subject of true talent I always thought we'd have a Bro...

Morley lived near me in Honey Lane, you would see him in local pubs with his missus. She looked the absolute fruitcake that she was meant to be.  I always though Trevor Morley was a real player for us, much under valued by too many of our fans. Ian Bishop was extremely talented but could be frustrat...
