Let me make this clear:

Any player that does not want to be a THFC can fuck off.

I don't give a fuck WHO you are.

Get out.

Don't make threats about it, just fuck off.

It’s Levy and ENIC they don’t want to play for, BECAUSE they love THFC.

That parade was the closest any squad has been with the fans in my lifetime. That is THFC, not that bald cunt building his pretty palaces to keep the plebs happy
 
Gaffer, where to start.
Firstly, thank you for bringing me to this wonderful club that I now call my home. Your instant belief in me to not only sign me but make me the clubs vice captain & part of the leadership group from the get go is something I’ll always be thankful for. Secondly for the Europa league campaign that started in our stadium on gameweek one and finished perfectly with that special night in Bilbao. You led us to victory and we’re European champions and in this clubs history books because of you and your winning mentality. Lastly and most importantly is how you are as a man and a person. Your unwavering self belief and strong mindset is infectious and a massive reason in why you were the man to end this clubs 17 year drought for a trophy. A family man with great morales & I have honestly learnt so much from you. More than you will probably ever know. All the very best.
Madders 🤍

Whenever a question is seriously being asked and there's such reply... 🥱 That's why the toxicity and division of posts here.

Anyway, doesn't matter any more.
You find my little quip toxic??
Lighten up...this forum is full of people making quips...don't take it too seriously...it's not the house of commons....now there's a bunch of toxicity, not our lovely forum...

I was Ange out towards the end, but this one actually sent me...



Thanks Ange! :angecup:

Fukkit I'll do coke again...

Clearly loved by the players and was close to them which puts a lot of the nonsense about him falling out with them to bed.

Doesn't mean he should have kept his job but it does mean the next appointment is very important in terms of getting the respect of the dressing room quickly.

Finished as European champions? :angecup:
I thought the CL winners were the Champions of Europe.
The reason (imho) that we finished 17th but won the EL is that most of the EL qualifiers were championship level at best. We're an EPL team as are Utd so I wasn’t the least bit surprised to see 2 PL teams in the final. It's far and away the strongest league in the world.
Still, love having the cup though. Unfortunately (still imho) under Ange, we wouldn't stand a chance in the CL and we'd still get a bottom half finish to the season which would be unacceptable. No European football for 26/27. We should ALWAYS be in a European competition, even the Conference would be acceptable but also challenging for the PL.
Good luck to him wherever he goes but he's really lost in the PL. (imho)
 
Thank god we've got our Tottenham back!

I mean winning major European trophies is all very well, but it doesn't compare to the euphoria of finishing 4th in the Premier League, 30 points behind the winners.

Fortunately we've got that to look forward to once again next season. After all if a "fat Aussie fraud" can get 5th in his debut season, then a manager with "proven Premier League experience" like Frank or Martinez should have no difficulty bettering it, right?

Glory days are just around the corner, once again!

God bless you Daniel Levy!
 
Thanks for a post that isn't just insults. Appreciate it. Your welcome, been a fair few years since I was 14 years old!

protected key players! Not sure he did? Rushed back Romero and VDV for the Chelsea game in trying to save his own skin and that back fired.
Due to the recruitment of youth. Arguably the youth you refer to, I'm guessing Bergvall and Gray were 2 of our best players this campaign!
He has evidently installed a winning mentality. We lost 22 league games this season and scrapped through the FA cup tie against Tamworth and was royally dumped out of the EFL Cup by Liverpool 4-1. I saw less than a handful convincing performances in The EL, including the final.

This is on top of his double standards and hypocrisy in press conferences, and for me his obvious distain for a core group of our supporters. Maybe for another day!

You admit had Ange not delivered The EL trophy you would have been "open to a change", so I have to assume you wanted Ange to remain in charge because of this one, granted huge, thing and happy to dismiss the other stats/facts that I feel are the reasons I wanted him gone.

Sausage Vince! Like you alluded to we are having (I hope) a sensible debate and you have made your point(s) eloquently and I hope I have too, and I genuinely don't know who is in the bigger camp, so I think we are gonna have to agree to disagree regards Ange.
If you're going to use Sausage's name, please have the decency to tag him.
Thanks for reading.
Love,

The club's motto doesn't involve settling for being the Spam, hoping to nick a cup once in a decade and being happy that we stayed up this year, because if you stay up the league doesn't matter

I am glad the chairman, for all his faults, thinks better of the club than that
 
Nah, it will depend on the way they ask them to play and their first 5-6 results

The more respected candidates with a history of winning would get more patience from players because they know they’ve won things to back them up,

Frank will come in and be friendly but if it doesn’t start well, he will be in trouble. Nuno pt2 very much on the cards. He was a lovely man btw

Mate these players have been dying on their arse all season and be losing a shit tonne of matches and have been hung out to dry week in week out, a new voice is probably what they need, fresh ideas etc...

It's a world Cup year as well, most of these players will be playing up for themselves, no matter who is in charge.

Nuno was very different, he was a placeholder and an afterthought by the club so no one respected him anyway, way different from any manager coming in whether it be Frank or anyone else.

West Ham have won 3 trophies in the last 50 years. Even under the long drought under Enic we've managed to win 3 trophies. There's no comparison between the two clubs, and it's odd that you should try and make one.

Although interestingly they sacked their last manager to win a trophy (a European one funnily enough) shortly afterwards, and are still languishing in the bottom half of the table. .

The game is about glory. That means winning stuff, not being perpetual also rans, which is the best we can hope for in the league.

What if I offered you a European trophy next season, but we'd also get relegated. How many on here would take it?

If I you offered it to me I'd bite your fucking hand off.

CL and relegation?

Yeah you're nuts sorry :D
 
Really? You'd turn down the European cup? A trophy only 6 other English clubs have ever won? A trophy that even the Woolwich have never won? Imagine the North London bragging rights that would give us.

It's not like we wouldn't come straight back up anyway.

Not for relegation no, nothing is worth going down not even the Champions League.

What bragging rights are we gonna have over everyone else when we are not even in the division, it shouldn't really be about anyone else anyway...it should always be about us, relegation harms us more than what you you want to believe.

It's not easy coming back up from the league either...
