One F.A. Cup for sale...
|
One of our beloved leaders will be selling the oldest F.A.Cup still in existence.
Going, going gone on the 29th September.
Hopefully it will not be sold to anyone abroad, as the cup remaining in this country, was one of the very specific reasons for the current owners purchase of the cup just a few years back.
Watch this space.

Brady will have the last laugh until London is removed from the badge and those fucking iconic gates placed at the club shop entrance........get placed elsewhere. Seems those gates are the final part of West Ham United's Boleyn history.
Surprised they haven`t considered weighing them for scrap metal or Sullivan have them as his mansion gates.

Isn't "funding the academy" an integral cost of a PL football club?
They're not running a TalkTalk call-centre, for fuck's sake!

I read an in-depth and accurate article about this on one of the West Ham sites. Couple of years ago. The issue was supporters had donated for years for the little museum and pretty much kept it going, then these cunts take control and have a clear out.
This wasn´t the article but along the same lines.

Mr Anon and Greenie, just put 'west ham museum items sold' into a Google search and if you read the article by westhamtilidie, (the second part of his museum article) it appears that they did. Auctioned off a lot of the stuff to help fund the academy apparently.
Now that could be argued to be a good thing, but when you hear the pair of them going on about tradition a d then they pull strokes like that, it just highlights what utter charlatans they are

Well, with their statement about the cost of playing Everton in the cup they are probably well chuffed that we are not pushing for the top 6 and winning games as it would mean paying win bonuses etc, they are budgeting for 17th place, everything is all about the money.

Belongs to Gold.
Think they've already sold a lot of the club stuff haven't they?...things that were actually donated to the club museum in the first place.

Does it belong to him or the club (assume gold)?Perhaps he thinks we can buy a defender with the proceeds!

I you doubting Gold's word V?
He only bought it because he couldn't stand the thought of it going abroad.
We should have no doubts that the cup will remain on these shores.

Our owners don’t give a fuck about cups so I doubt they will care where it ends up.
