Jesus H Christ, what a shower of s
t. Disgusting way to treat people. The people at the top should hang their heads in shame, shocking dereliction of duty. Reading that has seriously pissed me off.
Wasn't very nice was it, i bet there is a lot of stories far worse than this too.t. Disgusting way to treat people. The people at the top should hang their heads in shame, shocking dereliction of duty. Reading that has seriously pissed me off. Really not sure why some top teams bother with the academy system, they never seem to give their youth a chance, I guess the parents are at the mercy of these big clubs because of the huge rewards if their boy makes it.

As a footnote, Kenny Brown is the academy manager there and Keith Rowland is my sons squad manager for this season , both West Ham old boys.

It was as loud as I've heard it Rich, really couldn't believe what I was hearing 3 games in.
Whereabouts in the ground were you? I didn't hear too much, Boa Morte took a lot more unwarranted abuse IMO.There was a lot of booing otherwise & crowd turned very quickly. I left my seat the moment Jenks pulled back their players as it was obvious what would follow & I'd had enough so can' t comment on an booing at the end.
The drinks thing should've been announced at the start - "it's a hot day; we'll be stopping every 25 mins for drinks breaks on the pitch..." wouldn't have been hard to do & was taking place at other grounds. As it was I hope that the irony of pissed fat tossers in the stands booing blokes running about in 30+ heat needing a drink wasn't lost on the players.

Yes I heard booing but not directed at any individual as far as I could tell.
Can't understand why the drinks breaks were booed.
Likewise, but the breaks were unexpected - first time I've seen it at UP; as I said earlier it should've been clearly announced before KO IMO. Can't understand why the drinks breaks were booed.

+ the Adebayor rumours won't go away - last thing we need is that tosser turning up.
Moses is ok from what I've seen, not a striker though is he?
Did you see that there's a deal agreed to sell Maiga to Middle East.
When I mentioned the Adebayor deal to a Spurs fan he offered to drive him to UP.Moses is ok from what I've seen, not a striker though is he?

It would be a shame to lose Maiga but depends who replaces him.

Inevitable after BS went but I think that he's was an excellent Captain for the Club & scored vital goals (31 in total) for a couple of seasons. Good luck to him.
Read somewhere that Valencia's subsequently retracted what he'd said... presumable "misquoted"
