Brady: She just doesn’t get it does she?

karren_brady_291761I’m gonna give Lady Brady the benefit of the doubt and accept that she is simply one of those people that likes to wind it up for its own sake.

But if that’s her mission in writing for the awful Sun she really does need to be a little more careful in choosing her targets.

We have written on several occasions that in her job as West Ham’s vice chairman that column – plus occasionally her politics – opens her up to charges of a conflict of interests.

I certainly believe that is the case!

But this morning in discussing the club’s activities in the transfer market she goes into an area which could prove to be very unwise indeed when using Robert Snodgrass as a scapegoat.

Discussing out winter action in the window she says: “We’ve paid for ill-fitting players. Robert Snodgrass wasn’t exactly a triumph, while Hammers fans could name several foreign players who added little.”

This isn’t the first time Snodgrass has been hung out to dry with David Sullivan publicly declaring that his kids had begged him not to sign him. The Scottish winger gave a perfect response: “Thank you Mr Chairman!”

But Brady’s latest snipe appears to disregard one possibly important issue: With a new manager in place there is no guarantee that the player may return to West Ham at the end of his Aston Villa loan and find himself involved again.

Even if that’s not the case it really is pretty bad form to keep slagging off one of your own employees and diminishing their possible transfer value!

That she also wants Harry Kane to keep smashing in goals for Spurs – “unless they are against West Ham” seems like just another wind up as she describes her New Year Wish list.

May I offer just one of my wishes for January 1…that Ms Brady gives up her column and The Sun – it really doesn’t serve any genuine purpose!

  1. Chill out Hugh – By now you must have realised that it is a prerequisite to being on the board that you must be a gob-shyte! Thinking before you speak has no place I’m afraid!

  2. Is writing “We signed ill fitting players, Robert Snodgrass….” slagging him off, OR an admission of her *(and the boards) failings in 2017???
    Your negative world eye-view may have led you to read her comments too quickly?

  3. Yes it is – your prejudices may have led you to read my comments too quickly? maybe you would like your boss to say the same about you

  4. I use the word prejudices only becaos you chose to speak of my world view of which you would have not a clue

  5. Brady need to shut up about football matters and leave it to moyes to do the talking she has no idea and other clubs must think we are a laughing stock coy

  6. What, exactly, does this woman actually do (apart from p155 off a seemingly large portion of the fan base)???
    With the glorious migration to the athletics stadium now being complete, is she even needed?

  7. I have no idea why the Baroness of Kensington would continually praise Harry Kane unless of course as an ex footballers wife she wants to move onto a younger model… she obviously knows it irritates supposedly her own clubs fans, although I think her only allegiance is to the pound notes rolling into her account… as for politics Hugh I think anyone trusting any senior politician is on a hiding to nothing, they are pathological liars and highly educated idiots, so highly educated that they think the general public are inherently stupid enough to believe what they say.

  8. Hi Brady just seen snodgrass scores for villa
