West Ham Online

When he comes for the Carling Cup Tie. Make him as uncomfortable as fucking possible!!!!

Show him respect - he did to us even when he wanted a move. His wish for a transfer to a potential CL club was entirely understandable in a player of his pedigree. I wish it weren't the case but we have to be realistic.

I would give him a polite round of applause just before the game and then get behind our own team when it starts. Simple really. On a side note as people are discussing the Inevitably of Rice scoring against us I hate this bollocks about not celebrating when you score against your previous club. It’s a modern day thing because of the sensitive nature of the modern day fan partly stoked up by social media. It’s totally natural to be happy and celebrate a goal regardless of opposition. Liam Brady was an Arsenal legend but I remember him launching himself in the chicken run after he scored for us against them in the first game he had played against them since leaving.

(Plus another few points in the bag in that behaviour league thing)

"Instead of someone planting a corner flag in the centre circle, if he scores, I reckon someone should run on, cut out the centre circle and plant it on top of the corner flag. Break the trend and would be a first in football."

solidbond 2:56 Thu Sep 28 Really? Wow

I would give him a clap if Rice had fucked off abroad and came back for a pre season friendly but not against Arsenal

"Takes the Woolwich boys shilling these days so our only concern is to make sure he gets no nearer this trophy. He got all the praise/applauds/adulation when he played for us; none of that is relevant/appropriate now he no longer does so. Next, people will be demanding that he comes back to West Ham when he's well past it for a last, respectful, legendary-status, ""well deserved"" pay-day. I'll not be applauding him in any manner whatsoever - and there will be someone along shortly, armed with proof (PROOF, everybody!) to tell you exactly why that will be the case."

"It never ceases to amaze me how childish and moronic our supporters are, literally lacking anything else in life, other than getting wound up over West Ham."

"Bloody hell, like a post from a 5 year old."

"icwhs 12:41 Fri Sep 29 What a strange post. I take it you would have been OK with getting 30 mil for Rice, then?"

"'the money has absolutely no bearing on the experience of watching West Ham' Of course it does. We spent it on Alvarez, JWP and Kudus. That's a pretty big bearing on the experience of watching West Ham. Only about 7 assists and 4 goals so far this season?"

"“We got £105mil for him, brilliant business” This is the type of thing people who are never late for work say. Ridiculous and condescending to life, the money has absolutely no bearing on the experience of watching West Ham, and each and everyone who buys tickets don’t get cheaper tickets for it. Fuck off."

", no need to be antagonistic.. I’d say it’s a realistic comparison and sums up the clapping type fan to a tee.."

"Sand iron, that analogy of yours is not an equivalence. For a start the best mate needs to give the bloke losing his wife £100M."

"The sort of fan that would clap Rice is the same sort of sap that still maintains an amicable friendship with his ex wife after she’s been knocking off one his best mates for the past year and ends up fucking off with him.. Then down the bozzer explaining to his mates ""Yeah but she was a good wife, great mum, my dinner was always on the table from work, house was clean and tidy, we got on really well, good in the sack"" (despite her going through the motions) but evidently I knew she was going to fuck off one day cos Iv got a small cory and she deserves better"" Ex wife and mate then walk in the pub together hand in hand and said prat offers em a drink, whilst all his proper West Ham mates sit there mouths open completely aghast. Safe to say that’s exactly the type of prat that would clap Rice.."

Fuckin weird this. Done well Good England pro Talks us up Sold him over the odds and got some good players in. Can't see the issue As bad as those muggy arse fans..

"I don't hate Rice at all. He's not an Ince-like traitor. He went out on a high note and got nothing but appreciation for what he did for us, and he did genuinely seem to love us. You don't see his passion much these days. That said I won't be clapping him. Never clapped Cole or Defoe either. Why the fuck would you Peroni has it spot on tbf"

"Oh, and 100% he’ll score He won’t celebrate and the fans will wank themselves silly cos ‘ he still loves us ‘ It’s the West Ham way"

"No doubt there will be plenty who still iidolise him so he’ll get a decent reception I’m indifferent, he’s no longer one of us and was paid handsomely by the club in return for whatever he did for us So it’s a nothing from me"

"I'm sick of hearing about him or seeing his face. And my memories of the recent European adventures are ruined by him being in them. So I would be satisfied with polite applause before the game, then ince like abuse thereon.. At the end of his career, he can go back to being a legend etc."

I acknowledge that you never said that either Pentonville.

Why the fuck would you boo him?One of our best players for decades who won us a European Trophy and a great amount of money with his sale which everyone knew was coming years ago.Are you gonna be booing all the Gooner players or just Dec? Nothing like Ince at all.

"He plays for Arsenal, I wouldn’t clap him for money. I wouldn’t boo him either. Just more interested in the price of fish in Guatemala than Rice, and the fish price isn’t even on my fuck list."
