Apart from the Owen scoring more goals than Tevez one?

Dong was actually bought to do more than sell shirts.

Mr 4360% Profit. IMO

 

[The Sean]

United have reportedly accepted a £6m bid from Birmingham for Ben Foster. A good move for all concerned IMO if true.

As for a knock-on effect - Joe Hart to Arsenal?

Think City have said they don't want to sell. Tbf they don't need to

 

[BoyBrumby]

Word is Given won't be right for the start of next season, so think we'll struggle to get them to part with him unless he actually requests a move.

 

[cpr]

Can see him doing so TBH. A move to Arsenal would be good for him, and them, so I hope to **** it doesnt happen or i'd have to take them seriously. Reckon we should nip in TBH, I'm sure City would sell him to us, right?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I don't see us selling him at all. He'll play for the first month of the season until Shay is right then we'll loan him again IMO.

 

[Nate]

Don't see Rafa leaving.

 

[Craig]

Looks like today will be the day that Gianfranco Zola will get the arse and Slaven Bilic to ne his replacement. I think at some point Brumby at a Bilic quote in his sig after England thrashed Croatia 4-1 in Zagreb. Should give Brumby even more reason (not that he would need any) to hate West Ham I guess.

But seriously, what were the West Ham board expecting of Zola, the club nearly went the way of Pompey and that of administration and therefore with the loss of 10 points, certain relegation? The club stayed up, where they expeting Europa League qualification?

Zola out.

 

[sledger]

Pretty dire tbh, have a lot of time for Zola, and don't think he's really done a bad job given what he has had to work with. Whole situation has been terribly handled.

 

[Uppercut]

It's more to do with how he's handled himself than his direct results, which haven't been too bad. In particular, openly admitting that he was considering giving up and quitting when things were looking grim for the club. He really doesn't inspire any kind of confidence in anyone.

A fair point, but it still seems harsh that somebody should be persecuted for telling the truth. Obviously it's not a great idea to say what he did, because of the knock on effects it could have on the rest of the team and the club as a whole etc... but I get so fed up of nearly every manager giving bull**** interviews and generic answers about how there are no easy games in the league etc... and stuff like how "Wigan are a good side and gave us a good game" despite them having just been thrashed etc..

 

[Uppercut]

Hey, everyone likes Zola, but the board have to admit to themselves that he really isn't the best man for the job. It's easy to be critical of his sacking when it's not your club he's in charge of.

Well yes, that's rather stating the obvious.

That's all well and good if the davids have a decent manager to come in and replace him. but will it be another Dowie or Laws. It can't be too attractive a proposition with the mountains of debt, and getting rid of Zola and his staff ain't gonna help, IMHO.

Have quite a soft spot for The Irons, actually. Produce a stupid amount of England internationals and always go about the game as she was meant to be played. The academy, isn't it?

Bilic is a shiny suited penis tho. & both the chairmen are front bottoms of the first water.
