This will be interesting to see if this gets any response.



Will anyone want to invest in a club that doesn't own their own stadium, was on track to report £30m loss before COVID-19 outbreak and has owners charging the club interest double that of bank rates, now has zero revenue prospects if the league isn't restarted and if it is restarted stands a real possibility to get relegated?

One would have thought most investors right now would be pumping their money into Supermarkets, hospital respiratory manufacturing and surgical mask makers.

Looks likely that Rice will be on his way out then
 
They are not at all small time, not one bit..
All of a sudden due to a virus they are getting cocky again and think the season could be one of the best in their history..
This club is one mass embarrassment..


They are all insane in there

"To make it fair, the PL should rule that any games due to be played between now and 3rd April must be replayed with the squad available at the time of the original fixture. "

:mourthumb:
 
Either the season is voided and Liverpool lose the title or the season continues and West Ham probably go down and we get a healthy Kane, Son and squad back.

Fair enough.

LOL. What nonsense.

And anyway, our injured players were never technically unavailable - I'm guessing that within the rules of the game we could field a one-legged Harry Kane as long as he wasn't suspended.

Have to admit this tickled me. When you’ve won fuck all it’s hilarious as to what is important.
This thread is entitled “ACHIEVEMENTS unique to WHUFC”. Consider the word unique when looking at the very first example.
Some of the things they class as achievements are laughable even for their desperate standards.

I love the ' record number of points for a team relegated from the premier league!'.. wtf.

Is this serioulsy a thing it spread over 16 years and 4 campaigns

:mourfacepalm:

European Consecutive Scoring Record for 31 years

(Before Barcelona beat it )

Below an article about it

Ronnie Boyce started it in September 1964 and Billy Bonds finished it in October 1980. When Ronnie Boyce scored West Ham’s first European Cup Winners Cup goal against La Gantoise (Belgium) and Billy Bonds opened the scoring against Politehnica Timisoara (Romania) 16 years later, West Ham completed a record for the number of consecutive European competition matches a club has scored in.

The scoring sequence ended on Guy Fawkes Night 1980 when the Hammers failed to ignite in the away leg versus Politehnica Timisoara. Although they had the compensation of a 4-1 aggregate win.

Spread over four European campaigns the Hammers scored in each of their first 27 European Cup Winners Cup (ECWC) matches to create this impressive record. The reason the record has been mentioned this season is that after 31 years a new benchmark has been established. But it has taken arguably the best club side in world football to break the Hammers’ record.

Presumably that record includes the glorious European campaigns that saw them miss out on the ITV4 league proper after narrow defeats against Romanian heavyweights Astra Gogo twice!

One of those campaigns were for Fair play league qualifying
 
Thing is they have a squad of average across the board players. Only player I would want would be a fully fit Antonio and he will never be fully fit. Rice is ok but not really anything different to Dier, the only others are the unproven Bowen and Soucek.

Average is spot on.
I'll have to disagree regarding Antonio.. He only puts in one half decent performance a year and that's against us. Agree about Rice, so overrated.

On the plus side, Rice is home grown and Hammers fans would go up the wall if he signed for us.

I remember when Paul Allen signed for us and a few mates who were Spammers were furious to the extent of switching allegiance

Didn’t help me insisting that they were a feeder club
lol 😝
