Sullivan out!

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

[Maverick180180]

The world is full of murderers, rapists and nonces and yet whenever any of these pass away it makes not one difference to my life, but when Sullivan finally pegs it I’m genuinely going to celebrate 
it’s a terrible thing to admit to 
but the fact is, this odious little cսnt goes out of his way to ruin something I love in order to line his own pockets
he’s by no means the worst human being on the planet by a long way, but in terms of my life, he’s the fucking devil

[Swiss.]

We gotta go full Burnley again. Scare the shit out of them. 

[Fauxstralian]

Understand that unlike the pitiful Premier league UEFA will take selling hotels & the women’s team OUT of Chelsea’s figures which should jeopardise their Champions League status
That sounds like an open & shut case which should result in an immediate decision but there seems to be no movement 
Like when Boehly during his due diligence on purchase flagged that they had discovered that payments have been made off the books by the previous regime to avoid FFP sanctions 
Another open & shut case kicked into the long grass

[stubbo-admin]

If we really are 'skint'....who is that on. Certainly nothing to do with the fans. Only two people are responsible for that financial day to day running of the Club, and if the position is that the Club's management have engineered a position of near destitution, well they should be answerable.

Sullivan and Brady. Two self-proclaimed business geniuses. Taking notable sums out of the Club and leaving us potless if you believe their spin. Well where has the money gone? We've got sizeable revenues, tiny stadium and match day running costs, the 2nd highest attendance in the league and all the trappings if a Premier League club for over ten years, plus the recent history sale of a home grown player for 100m+!

If we have no money that is totally on Sullivan, Brady and their inept management for the Club. They should fuck off, and fuck off immediately. The position they've engineered should be seen as a colossal fucking embarrassment TO THEM. It's pure evidence that they have not a fucking clue what they're doing. 

No forward planning. No squad management. We've got 'collectively' the ~4th wealthiest board in the whole league.

It's a shambles, and it's squarely on the door of those two parasites.

Like with most things Chelsea are allowed to get away with financially, aint they put a stop to that in future only AFTER Chelsea get away with it first?

The game is bent and geared towards those with all the money.

[goose]

If Chelsea’s women’s team is worth £200m then ours must be worth north of £100m.

PSR is definitely a convenient smokescreen for the Board to hide behind. It suits them as they can argue it is an external constraint to hide behind claiming that their hands are tied. I think you can forget all about PSR in the future now that Chelsea have driven a coach and horses through the rules by selling their women’s team to themselves. Expect others (Villa) to follow suit this year.

The real issue is cash flow which can be fixed by a capital injection form the owners. Board investment at West Ham over the last 5 years is streets behind competitor clubs like Villa and Newcastle and illustrates the true level of ambition of the owners.

The club has no strategy other than muddling along from year to year in the hope of preserving Premier League. There is no vision and no-one capable of making football decisions that recognise the changing nature of the big money game. Unless you have regular Champions League football the only hope of mounting a challenge is to top up revenues with profit on player sales. Apart from Rice, the record on player sales is a pitiful reflection of Sullivan’s ludicrous approach to player recruitment.

[Massive Attack]

We definitely aint skint, it's all part of the spin bollocks BS typically come up with. Like you say, we should be able to operate in the market with leeway in PSR before sales even have to happen, it's just part of a convenient smokescreen for BS to hide behind why they can't spend much. We shouldn't be scratching around looking for players on scraps and freebies.

[GBHammer63]

The club pleading poverty once again, fucking sickening, think how impoverished we’d be if we actually had to pay to upgrade or rebuild our stadium like every other club has to. Only our leeching cսnt owners could make us skint after the fucking deal they were given. They should be made to feel very nervous at every opportunity, the useless cunts should be exposed by the media and by the fans. Unfortunately the current customers at our stadium don’t have an ounce of the passion or pride we shared at UP so they’ll keep getting away with it. Can’t wait for the uprising, hopefully it’s not too late.

[Fauxstralian]

Have seen all these social media posts of where each club sits in relation to how much FFP leeway they have 
Chelsea seem to have the biggest amount & we were shown as having around £93m 
Im guessing that means the amount of allowable losses up your sleeve
Maybe I’m wrong but reckon with the 4 players released we are knocking £300k to £400k off our weekly wages plus more with Antonio 
Plus any purchases would see 20% of the cost written off each year
Yet we are being told we can’t buy without selling by the chief bullshitter Sullivan
The club is going nowhere (except maybe to the Championship) until he goes

[Takashi Miike]

Under no circumstances should we be skint unless
a) we are run with neolithic levels of incompetency 
b) we are run by corrupt cunts

And somehow we are the club that continually ends up with a succession of boards that do this 

definitely (b)

[Massive Attack]

Yep, he was on a hiding to nothing left hung out to dry with the incoming dross he had to work with. Just look at the shit he was given that season amd the age some of them were like Arbeloa, Fonte..

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E2 ... .C._season

How he got us to mid table in the first season in that Hell hole mess of a Stadium was almost a better achievement than the previous season.

they sabotaged slaven, giving him a load of fucking shit instead of proven quality. they don't like managers that unite the fan base

[Massive Attack]

.

Slaven Bilic came in to appease fans protests and it went well his first season. It flopped after we let Payet go cheaply. 






 

Nah, it flopped under Bilic after we had to move in to a shocking unfit for purpose Athletics Stadium, even with Payet still here and were far too impatient for him to get to grips with it. Not to mention he was served up with utter "World Class" shite on the pitch like Nordtveit, Tore, Zaza, Calleri, Fletcher etc and was expected to work wonders with them! Even then he still got us to 11th in the League in it's 1st season there whilst also having to sell Payet midway through that season.

The Boleyn season was fantastic considering the pressure he was under to make it a special one in his debut season. That was as close to what I'd consider being The West Ham Way of approaching games in entertaining fashion and taking on all the big boys home and away. The move couldn't have come at a worse time which then fucked it all up.

[simons]

I think next season we could see a change. The apathy is slowly turning to anger. If it gets too uncomfortable for him, he’ll stay away. That’s the first step to seeing him gone. Credit to Spurs for what they are doing, but Levy has a much thicker skin than Sullivan, and they are a club on a different trajectory to us now, so the heat will be off him for a bit. Sullivan hates negative publicity, so anything that hurts his ego is a start. 

[Keep dreaming]

The constant in all this is the pattern of Sullivan & Brady's business style. Whenever they try to honour the promise of "World class team in a world class stadium" they fail.

They sacked progressive Zola for top level 'experience' of Avram Grant who relegated us.

They sacked Grant to give us 4 seasons of Allardyce. That worked at a survival level but fans suffered.

Slaven Bilic came in to appease fans protests and it went well his first season. It flopped after we let Payet go cheaply. 

Bilic was fired to be replaced by 'safe' Moyes who only just managed to keep us up..

Fans were rightly disgruntled with 6 months of Moyesball so 'winner' Pellegrini came in and was given a big budget. That was wasted and left us struggling financially once again.

The board re-appointed Moyes who was not really a WHU manager but he did win a trophy, kept us in PL and more importantly, worked with a tiny budget. The board saw that as success but needed a better scapegoat for our failures with signings. So in came the appointment of a DOF with a decent budget and a target to continue with European football..

Now, after the failures of Lopetegui (who our new DOF warned against) in came Sullivan's choice of Potter who continued to have a worse effect than Lopetegui. 

And to cap it all we are back where the Sullivan & Brady reign started. Skint with bigger than ever losses. The Gold family want to sell and our Czech billionaire seems too busy elsewhere and also happy to sell. Investors must look at WHU and see a massive fan base but a cheap rental stadium unsuited for football. Sub-standard, training grounds and lurching from failure to failure and unable to make that step up into constant European challenges...

Sullivan & Brady need to go and take their failures off into retirement... 


 

Very well summed up, and your final sentence the most important one.
Twenty years ago, fans would revolt. But today's fans couldn't give a shit apparently...

that show she did with the bandit from sky, and the dwarf's mini me was very revealing. and not in a good way

[John Drake]

While watching the Netflix documentary on Michelle Mone recently, I was struck by the similarities between her career and that of Karen Brady. Both having created reputations as successful young businesswoman based entirely on PR perception rather than anything they had actually achieved. Equally, their ultimate elevations to the peerage (Baroness Mone of Mayfair and Baroness Brady of Knightsbridge) were the result of stroking Piggy Cameron’s ego who, in turn, saw them as ideal token females to populate the benches in the Lords.

[eusebiovic]

The fucking useless slag Brady really needs bringing down a few pegs for the way she’s overseen the running of the club, business genius bollocks. The only thing that’s world class about the club is the world class fucking idiots that tolerate the lies, I’m proud they haven’t had a penny from me since the move. Can’t wait for the uprising but also can’t believe it’s taking so long. It hurt to walk away but there’s principles.

It is genuinely flabbergasting how she’s got this reputation as some sort of business guru, considering how dreadfully run our club is. 

She is nothing more than a performative feminist who knows how to talk the talk but has never had any real concept of walking the walk. The mileage that has been squeezed from flogging that dead horse. Rather like "Girl Power" and there was a bloke raking in three quarters of the money. 

Pah!

[Massive Attack]

Whatever happened to their original claim "We are only Custodians of this great Club etc" when they first rocked up effectively suggesting that they would fuck off and pass it on to someone more suitable if they cannot progress us. Well they've long since proven they're not up to the job, so why are they still here after being in charge for 15 long years now? We know why, because they enjoy living off the gravy train the Club has now become. Like fuck they want to give all that up just for the sake of the long suffering fans.  

Here's another pearler Sullivan guffed back in 2010
"We have a seven-year plan to get them into the Champions League" cսnt must be near a black hole, as that 7 years sure is dragging...

One amusing thing I take from that is that Brown might have to dig in his pocket to help 'balance' the books.

I am so glad that I haven't put any money into the club since we moved. Fuck em
