West Ham Online

May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Window this close season comes in two parts:

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June
Part 2: 16th June to 1st September

We're gonna need extra cover at fullback, as AWB will be missing a lump whilst playing in that amateur competition that has to be held every 2 years, instead of every 4 like a proper competition. 

Walker-Peters, a full-back who is equally inept at defending on either flank.

Harry Winks is a dismal crab. How on earth he ever played for England I don’t know 
Abysmal at Leicester who have rightly binned him
AVOID

Never forget the time I spoke to a Spurs fan who knew Harry Winks and his old man well when we got on the subject of how good Rice is years ago. "Yeah, but he aint no Harry Winks!", he guffed.

£105M with a trophy under his arm and countless England caps later..

Harry Winks would lose in a race to Guido Rodriguez.

Not too many reasons to be cheerful looking ahead to next season
Would take 17th right now with the bullshitter Sullivan in charge 

Yep, Im miserable when it comes to West Ham, and its very much “Groundhog Day”. Wish it was not that way.  Expectation management

*miserable cunts the lot of you


*not that I disagree 

He’s not wrong though.

Yep, unfortunately its going the way I thought. Although, anyone who has followed West Ham for a few years thinks similar. 

Nothing will happen in terms of inbound players until mid August at the very earliest. For a start we will have had to sell Kudus, Aguerd, Emerson and one other to gave funds. Most of our incoming players will be the last week or so of the window once the season is in full flow and we will pick from whats left which in sullivan’s head equates to bargains, freebees, has beens, cheaper, older experienced Prem players on the books of agent contacts of Sullivan. Thats how he has always done business. Potter and Macaulay will be lucky to get one of their identified picks.  Ignore all rumours, web sites , media until we have sold 2 or 3 in about 4-6 weeks time hopefully.  Of course if we dont sell Kudus etc then expect no one coming in other than freebies who are out of contract. Brownhill I suspect is one that we will see.

Even our wonderkids are old 

Got to call out the Express reporting here. A 21-year-old is too old to be annointed with the wonderkid moniker  

*Sticks head in thread

See even the rumour mill has pretty much given up on us apart from another "wonderkid" why the fuck do we keep doing this every summer, signing some kid, bigging them up as the next Pele only for them to be forgotten by the end of the year, seems a tradition now 

West Ham eye wonderkid who is one of the best African talents of his generation | Football | Sport | Express.co.uk

Nailed on that we'll have no money but "We tried" (early in the window) for players Potter on his team want, but more than enough money and are "beating them off with a shitty stick", (late in the window) for players that Sullivan & his agent/mates want (and have always wanted from the get go).

Egan-Riley joins Marseille rumours we were in for him.

with £13.5 million to cough-up, expect the CCCP-midget to be looking at OAP's to make up team numbers.

Because that's where Sullivan and Co. usually release their rumours.

There is absolutely nobody in football who respects our diminutive chairman and his performative feminist sidekick...

As soon as they clock his methods it's a case of put on your tin hat and wait for the redundancy payoff and if you can get away with the odd backhander at his expense then...so be it.

It's a MENTAL situation
