Potter Out

[THUNDERCLINT]

Had enough of this arogrant no mark now.  

11 games, 27% win ratio and 0.66 goals per game.

Either the break clause is true or this flake quits otherwise were proper fucked.

[fraser]

Got a job and the other half's in hospital having not long got back from visiting her. 

Chinny reckon.

Anyone who s gainfully employed or has a hospitalised spouse has neither the time or inclination to shit post 1,000 words of shite on a beautful Friday afternoon.

This is why you are the site dickhead who thinks he's got a smart answer for everything..

Since the turn of the year I have not only had to deal with my old man being diagnosed with cancer but also the other half who has had to have a hysterectomy as she too has also been diagnosed with cancer. So posting on here until recently again for a bit of fucking respite from all the bollocks of real life shit has been the least of my concerns whilst having to contend with so much off it. I come on here to escape it all briefly and yet instantly reminded by silly classless wankers like you of why I probably shouldn't bother. 

I hope they get better, but Who is who, surely you knew what to expect.

A really bold move would be to sack him now. Get a new manager in to build us up during the summer. 

We might get Amorim if Man U don't win the Europa League.

I detest the midget, but I'm not sure he's instructing Potter to stick eight men behind the ball every game. People's memory seems to be fucked, in his opening interviews he said he understood the 'west ham way', that the 'fans wants better football'. Four months later, he's delivered the complete fucking opposite. Grin all he wants, and think he's talking to children when addressing the press but if he continues with this negative tiresome shit, he'll do well making it to christmas

Funnily enough this exact same thought came to my mind too recently when thinking back to them taking us over and how they proudly proclaimed to understand what "the West Ham Way" was. I think it popped in my head when ex Academy Manager and West Ham nut Mark Phillips spoke about the "WHW" on co-comms for the U18 Cup Final win. He'd mention former manager's we had whilst he was working for us and it was glaringly obvious that the spivs never understood just what the WHW was with the vast majority of their hires.

Grant - Chelsea failure that relegated us in his first season 

Allardyce - Gobbed off straight away belittling the WHW and went on to prove he could never produce the right style of attacking Football, although at least got us promoted and stabilised us

Bilic - They get all the credit for finally getting in someone who actually did understand the WHW and produced some of the most exciting free flowing, attack minded Football we craved. Then the worst Stadium migration in Football history happened that put a spanner in the works thanks to the Dildos yet again not understanding what truly mattered to the diehard WHU fan who wished we stayed at the Boleyn

Moyes - A painful short-lived  yet predictable borefest Football that was miles away from the WHW that came to a head during the Burnley Home 0-3 humiliation in the Shithole which summed their reign up, only for us Fans to revolt in the best WHW possible which led to them finally digging deep inside their long pockets to spend more like we should to get players that represent the WHW more

Pellegrini - Like spending on signings they also showed more ambition by stumping up the money to get in someone wirh a genuine high level pedigree. Promised well to begin with but ultimately proved unsuccessful

Moyes II - Lack of ambition and imagination returns to the Dildo Brother's best answer to Pellegrini was to return to a totally uninspiring manager who proved 1st time round he wasn't the answer. However with the fortune of arriving back during the Covid years he could build something without the normal pressures of Football as crowds had to stay away and we could build some momentum which worked. That's luck more than judgement and the Dildo Brothers struck it lucky. They were very fortunate once more near the end of that reign as UEFA re-introduced a new low level Competition again that gave us a rare opportunity to exploit, even though we were playing the most mind numbing Football at the time. Then ultimately lucked out with a very favourable run against dogshit opposition to a long awaited Cup win. Not that I give the Dildo Brothers any credit for that as that all transpired through huge chunks of luck for it to happen, not the impressive foresight of Chairmanship

Lopetegui - I liked the appointment but even he wasn't mine or anyone's top managerial target and they conspired to fuck up the Amorim appointment in the summer when that would have been at that time an ideal ambitious appointment for us. Not coming in mid-season which I'm never a fan of but in the summer when I believe Amorim would have got us playing an exciting brand of Football akin to more like what we have craved for so long in quick attacking front foot Football. Alas it ended up being Lopetegui and it he wasn't given enough time to change an entire philosophy around from a dressing room ground down for years in to low block, overly defensive Football they're still clearly struggling to shake off, thanks to the Dildo Brothers taking so long to donally pull the plug on Moyes

The managers I believe that we should have gone for at various different times instead during their tenure, that would have got us playing more like the WHW style had they showed real ambition and shrewd decision making were the likes of Howe and Emery and both attainable as Newcastle and Villa proved. And had they made such a smart move they'd probably either both still be in a job having built something genuinely special, entertaining and arguably in winning style too that we could all finally be proud of. Instead they mostly searched in bargain basement poorer imitations that often flattered to deceive by papering over the cracks continually with managers more past their sell by date. Both managers with plenty on the clock and having real ambition in the game.

Now what we are sadly left with after 15 long fucking year's down the line is yet further proof of the wankers in charge do not truly understand just what the West Ham Way is or anything like it. We play in a rented soulless Stadium crammed full of Johnny-come-lately daytrippers who have about as much of a clue about what the WHW is as Lady Bullshitter and the Poison Dwarf do. That's also now managed by a total drip of a yes man manager who resorts to mixing up his metaphors about bedtime which just about perfectly sums up our snorefest Football we regularly get served up these days. 

The entire thing from top to bottom is a total car crash and now world's away from anything that used to resemble what The West Ham Way truly was....

BS OUT!

TLDR

Find a job or get a bird for fucks sake.

[THUNDERCLINT]

The cսnt's properly gaslighting us now.

Apparently because we've been shit for 40 odd games it's unreasonable to expect any short term improvement, yet Wolves and Everton who've been even shitter for twice as long have both overtaken us since he took charge because they didn't employ useless bellends.

I hope tne cսnt falls into a woodchipper.

[Takashi Miike]

This time next year, expect to see threads with latest manager name  “xxxxxx OUT!!”

We are in a perpetual loop under Sullivan. ( thecokd “Groundhog day reference”. No strategy, plan evidenced by being the only top flight club in football worldwide to not see the benefits of and implement the DOF based management model. 

“We’re on the road to nowhere” and the only hope we have is another unintended consequence or accident which Moyes second spell turned into, aided by COVID but always destined, due to the aforementioned reasons, to be short lived which it was.  

Need a source of hope? Keep yourself healthy and well and outlive Sullivan. Realistically his death is the real chance we have to get out if this endless loop if underachievement. Sounds harsh but someone please explain or articulate a counter argument please just to give me some hope

Unfortunately when he pegs it, I’m fully expecting his moronic kids to take over

yes, it's a gravy train that unless they get hold of the stadium land, will never let go of

[Adsiron]

Whatever anyone says about us not being a club like Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds or Portsmouth, the reality is that WHU is massively supported and deserves to be constantly battling for Euro positions.

Unfortunately, Sullivan & Brady appear to be more interested in PL survival and getting cheap deals on players. It started up again as soon as Steidten left when the repeated quotes to journalists are always that WHU is skint and needs to sell to buy...

[Sydney_Iron]

Maybe not a popular view but about the only good thing that came out of the Gold/Sullivan takeover was the club not becoming the next Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds or Portsmouth, for all the faults they stabilised the club and even with a relegation did enough to get us back up, the alternative at the time was Tony Fernandez who then went on to buy and mismanage QPR so badly they are still a bit of a basket case even though he's gone, biggest shame is we just can't stay consistent or maintain a step up to being top 8 on a regular basis, it's almost as if mediocre without relegation is acceptable to the board and owners, just leaves us fans feeling pissed off and what ifs, the highlight of that Cup win was only really achieved as the comp is so low level it was a gift we couldn't pass up, how Spurs and Villa fucked it up is mind boggling and just look how easy Chelsea are doing it with their kids!!!!.

As to Potter, haven't watched the pre match thing, nor do i intend to, seems very little to be positive about in these last few games, but not surprised and expect would agree with comments made here, was pleased with his appointment but regretting it now, seems out of his depth, but what the fuck do i know???

[Manuel]

We've had hope deliberately turned into despair so many times down the years that I'm way past caring where the club ends up now.

It's long not been the club I supported with passion as a younger self.

Given the number of times it's happened, it has to be a deliberate club policy; not even the longest possible probability odds will give you that number of coincidences in such a relatively short space of time: different owners, different managers, same old fuck ups.

I've always been a little surprised we never become another Leeds, Sheff Wed, Forest, Derby etc. There's always been a belief (at least by some) that it could have happened had these owners not come in after the biscuit bloke, but who knows. With the stadium and the surrounding area I doubt it will ever happen now.

what's weird is the swallowing noises he makes as he faces each question, it also seems like he's taking the piss with a smirk/grin never far away. it's all very weird, and getting weirder as the weeks pass

[Manuel]

Potter’s presser for the Brighton game was cringeworthy…

Took no responsibility for the Soton result…

Some stupid analogy about a bed blanket that’s too short…and not wide enough…

And usual word salad…with absolutely no spark of energy or enthusiasm…

…just  platitudes

I fear for next season…


 

Agree with all of that, was a fucking disaster. Some say these pressers are all the same, don't agree. What's what all the silly grinning? Imagine someone like Mourinho doing that in the midst of this shitness.

[onsideman]

Fuck all obtuse about it, I've tried to keep it about Potter to begin with and it was you that was determined to make it about the previous manager. And you then didn't like it when we actually examine who we forked out most of the budget on and that it wasn't all by the previous manager you'd like to believe it was.

I wasn't determined at all.  Just logical. Your bloke was a cսnt. This bloke appears to be a cսnt. It isn't mutually exclusive

[Massive Attack]

Sullivan manages to surpass himself yet again with his clueless guidance of our Club. Just hurry up asset stripping us and fuck off for good, you Club killing cսnt.... 

[Maverick180180]

Yeah he rabbits on in the same breath about how there's been improvements but definitely not in points, or where we now find ourselves in the table. But at least we can take some comfort by being able to cover our toes with our ill fitting security blanket by not conceding as many goals, as the rest of our body shivers from mind numbing Football.

Everything about this bloke suggests to me the combination of him and Sullivan is gonna be what finally destroys this club, I firmly believe he’ll take us down 

Now that’s just my opinion but it’s what I believe, so I wouldn’t be much of a fan if I didn’t speak out about it, and at the same time I get that people don’t agree with that
no one can be sure what’s going to happen but the difference is, believing in Potter is just blind faith, he has no historic premier league stats to suggest he’s a top class coach, in fact all they do is prove he’s always had trouble scoring goals, which when you take into account he’s likely to sell our attacking players in order to bring in any money for transfers, it means this transfer window has to be spot on otherwise it’s going to be disastrous, and who’s back in charge of transfers?
