I'd be surprised if MON ever was really interested.

Not surprised that we're keeping AG though after all the bks. He won't walk away, it'd cost (him) to much.

Sooner brady fks off the better, stupid tart's got no place in E London.

Re AG like him or not it would appear that he's not going anywhere so let's back the fker & hope that the playing staff pull their collective fingers out & avoid the drop.
I agree with ( nearly) all of that.
Couldn't ever see O' Neill there, and TBH with that squad ( and most of it is not Grants)I can't see even Fergie keeping us up.
Jury's out on Brady,papers keep digging but I bet behind the scenes she's going through the finances like a hawk and bit by bit will get the club fianacially stable.
The players seem to back Grant, but at the moment there's simply not enough talent, belief or strength to keep us up. Six wins in the next 15 games just ain't gonna happen I'm afraid.
scratchchin 6 wins in 15

Everton (A) - L
Blackpool (A) - D
Brum (H) - W
WBA (A) - D
L'Pool (H) - L
Stoke (A) - D
Spuds (A) - L
MU (H) - L
Bolton (A) - L
Villa (H) - W
Chelski (A) - L
Cittee (A) - L
B'Burn (H) - W
Wigan (A) - W
S'Land (H) - W

nope, can't see it either & I'm being optomistic with a couple of my predictions, few draws in there that may help, need to look at who the competition's got over the run-in.
Last year, 31 points would have kept a team up,this year it's going to be 38/39 I reckon.Unless we get 8/9 points from the first 4 fixtures on that list we're gone.

9 away games against 6 home. This was always going to be the problem after losing & drawing at home to all the promoted teams earlier in the season. Only got ourselves to blame.

Yeah sorry, OTT. This season is just about the sticky limit I`m afraid. Just how much lower can we sink?

Little way to go yet; the terry henry transfer idea's not been re-raised yet.

Serious note, looks like behrami to fiorentina's almost there, pity, decent player although turned into a sick note this year.

Suddenly it'a all looking better. Just noticed the Stoke game is at home not away as listed. So 7 home and 9 away!

Better than that - as it's actually 8 away & 7 home then!

^^^What's happened here?!^^^

I didn't say it, but yeah it is a shame to Behrami has gone.

On another note, I really feel I need to vent my spleen regarding Messrs Gold and Sullivan. How can two men take a team who, at the time, where only going down and down and turn them in to a stable Premiership club and then do the polar opposite with us? I am not saying that we were a rock in any way, shape or form before their arrival but the way they have handled this AG situation is beyond the pale and they aren't showing any of the nous they showed in their ownership of Birmingham.

I for one am tempted to vote with my feet and not renew my season ticket if we stay up this season. If we got relegated I probably would, out of some daft obligation I feel I have to the club, however! Try and logically explain that one.

I'm really pissed off with the state of the Hammers at the moment. Too many players on the payroll that shouldn't be whether they be too fat, too injured, too much (Bridge at 90k a week, fk off!) or too crap.

Not so sure, he's not really put a shift or played a half decent game for over a season. Rather get rid and allow Grant to get someone half decent in to replace his place in the squad.

Agreed, a shadow of the player that the crowd once loved. Hasn't looked happy in a long time.

I have no doubt that G+S+B will turn the club around eventually and make it stable( lets not forget we were nigh on bankrupt a year ago)However,in the meanwhile, they need to sack their P.R team and shut the fk up umless they've got something positive to come out of their respective gobs.

Can't believe that I'm actually thinking he's no great loss now. Still, gotta pay bridge's wages somehow.

Seem to remember reading somewhere that having been critised (sp?) for being to media friendly after taking over G&S decided to keep quiet unless they really, really had something to say.

Suspect that if their able to avoid the club being relegated, secure the OS, sell off the BG and purchase the remaining ex Icelandic interest there'll be looking for the exit anyway. Plans properly buggered if we do go down then.

This fking club is going to fking kill me!
Picquione you utter fking tt.Seriously why is it that footballers have no fking common sense???
And why oh why,when you're defending a lead, would you bring on Sears to run the clock down, when you could have bought Gabbs who's a fking defender to run the clock down
And to cap it all, Brum in the cup with on Obinna no Picky and quite likely no Cole.
And it was all looking so good this morning, Brady came out fighting in the papers, Downes did a brilliant interview on ShoutSport and we had 3 points aat 90 minutes.
Gutted.
