The Fat cսnt can get fucked. It would be the icing on the cake for Sullivan to do it though to perfectly sum up his reign at the Club, so wouldn't put it past him doing it out of spite of the fans.

Lampard to West Ham isn't that far fetched. 
He's the only former player who still gets a negative song sung about him to this day, which includes the repeated use of the word 'cսnt'

Won't happen in a million years.
You all need to remember, regardless of what happened at Chelsea, his family (and him believe it or not) are huge West Ham fans.

..."All this "2 game" bollocks is a joke way of running a Club."...

That is termed long term planning under Sullivan's astute business strategy.

It's clear now that the real reason we beat Forest was because Santo was virtually out the door anyway. You can tell looking back it was a half hearted display from them and the manager awaiting the inevitable sack. So really that game shouldn't have made much of a difference considering we then get royally spanked yet again the next Home game. All this "2 game" bollocks is a joke way of running a Club.

If Mourinho comes out in his Benfica Presser and asked whether any Club tried to contact him about a job in England and he says no but was waiting, I'll do my fucking pieces with that heel dragging wanker Sullivan. 😂

Mourinho has just agreed to join Benfica. So that's that idea out of the window.

Then he'd be a lying cսnt after the clear statement he said in his interview last season should the Club - Any Club in the League from the bottom up not in Europe - get in touch.
It wasn't a "come get me" message at all. It was just his way of saying that he was fed up with the referees in UEFA competitions, this interview taking place just after he'd been red carded by one of them.

I'm sure he'd still love to be offered a job at a club in the Europa or Champions League. I doubt there's many of those that would want to hire him though, and certainly not from any of the big leagues.

That's the thing with Mourinho as well, is he's usually an astute calculated manager who would understand all that equation. It's virtually a no lose situation for him to fuck up for this season and his ego is larger than the planet so he already knows he could win us the League this season (in his mind).

The only issue is Sullivan is a stupidly thick long cսnt when it comes to making such obvious decisions. And he wonders why he gets the reputation for being a Dithering Dave as well.

Practically got 1 of the best Managers ever waiting in the wings chomping at the bit to get started as per his own publicly stated words without needing to pay compo for him and Sullivan still drags his midget feet through the mud.... 

Mourinho, Potter, Mourinho, Potter....

This is the perfect job for Jose. No real expectations, massively underperforming top 20 club in world football. It’s actually pretty easy to get somewhere with this club. Moyes could have had champions league football if his ego didn’t get the better of him all the time. 

as long as you can handle Sullivan (which is a special skill granted) the worlds your oyster with this club. At no other club with the money and fan base you have would you be expected to do so little!

I don't know what this squad would do if they had a manager with some testicles, probably be off with stress the week after they rock up. Mourinho would have some of this lot crying. Max Kilman would biodegrade. Much as I know Mourinho would be a car crash, it'd be a fucking glorious car crash. Mad quotes, players getting a fucking a verbal shoeing, probably in public, and the owners would be on the fucking run from day one. Which is probably why it will never happen. 
It's going to be fucking Nuno espirito shitdick innit? Our owners have such a limited view of world football that they'll see him as a real coup and won't understand why the reception will be lukewarm to a slightly more likeable, tanned, better English speaking version of David fucking Moyes. But at least he falls out with owners pretty regularly that he'll likely only be here for a maximum of two seasons. The good bits of Moyes, in a more likeable package that doesn't hang around like one of the those river parasites that swim up your dick and lodge themselves there. Might not be the end of the world. Got to be better than that fucking PE Teacher with the soppy git look on his face looking like he needs a reboot. cսnt. Why wait until after Palace though?

Potter has to go, he is a fucking fraud. The sweary geezer in the sheepskin bollocking nine year olds on Hackney Marshes. would be better than Potter. 
Xavi? Rose? Ariola? Silva? Any one of those would be my preference.
But, this is Sullivan's fiefdom. Sullivan will bring in a fireman, Dyche? Nuno? or some other unemployed, negative manager. Someone else who will bore us; be out again in 18 months/2 years max. We can rely on this board to find us another, uninspiring, useless cսnt.
Rinse and repeat.
BS Out (or step back at least) then get a director of football, set a vision, establish a growth strategy, deploy the tactics to deliver the strategy, finance and invest in the infrastructure to deliver growth and success.

I have hated Jose’s teams forever. But in this instance I kind of think he’s needed. It’s completely not the style of football I would like but I think we are in the Pelligrini / Moyes phase again. Where trying to make us a progressive passing side might actually relegate us. No matter who gets the job. If just seems like a difficult task to pull off right now. 

if say a Xavi et al, comes in it would have to be right now. Not at Xmas. There’s just no time. And even then it will take a decent transfer window and lots of time for him to adjust to our league and coach a passing side. 

I think Jose knows this league, knows what to do and unlike Moyes he actually WANTS to win. Too many managers don’t want to win anything. Jose gets annoyed with club management and players because they don’t want to win like he does. Thats all it is. 

I dunno, I feel dirty even advocating for Jose but.. we have to survive this league. This is the first time I’ve seen the PL with no out and out shit teams apart from us. Thats worrying.

Totally agree - including the bog roll reference.

Never thought I'd find myself saying it, but Mourinho is exactly what we need right now. In terms of sorting out a poor side, and in terms of the very obvious issues he would raise with the board.

Ten minutes at West Ham and the guy would be aware of so much of what is wrong. And he's the sort who would say it publicly, too.

Although, sadly, it's why he is unlikely to be appointed. Our board are cowards. They want somebody who is always grateful to have the job. Like the non-event in charge at the moment.

Whilst I would fundamentally be against Mourinho's appointment just from a rational perspective - I do feel that you make a very strong case for him. It would end badly, of course..... But it would be a lot more fun and would put us back on the map. Right now, we are like a piece of dry bog roll on a toilet floor.... Pointless.
