    Shock horror, every West Ham site, every West Ham fan who has seen this fantastic and so very true video says how great it is and how they agree with everything said. Except of course here. The one and only West Ham propaganda site.

    • Stinger If that was the case why would we put the video up in the first place?

    • West Ham Fan No 32 says:

      Stinger how is this a West Ham propoganda site lol, most of us complain about many of the things that the other sites complain about, if you see the new stadium as horrible and a monstrosity and that the club has been ruined by the current directors fair enough that is your opinion and it is shared by a decent section of our fans but not all of us see it that way. I have missed 4 games at the new stadium including friendlies Europa League etc and I am not an ST holder unfortunately. I have watched from most areas of the ground which perhaps has been an advantage because I know where I want to sit and where for me the atmosphere suits the experience I want, sorry digressed a bit there but what you think is not right or wrong but what imho is wrong is that you accuse the site and in this case Sean (who has been quite critical of many aspects of the move) as being some kind of propoganda merchant. Like with everything if this “propoganda” angers you don’t click on it, I choose to be selective about what I read on other West Ham sites because sometimes they annoy me, overall especially at this time of year and our team under performing for me its best to minimise stress and enjoy a Happy Christmas, when I said lol at the start of this article it wasn’t done sarcastically btw it was because when I read it it made me laugh so thanks and Happy Christmas, hope you don’t take my response in the wrong way 😀

      • Stinger says:

        TBH I don’t actually think Sean is one of the propaganda merchants. Always find him to be very level headed and fair. (perhaps not his player rating, lol )

        Not all, but the vast majority on here do seem to think that our owners are the 2nd coming and never ever fault them for anything.

        I do think that a certain HS being friends with DG does not help and he really never finds fault in anything they say and do and nearly always promotes what ever they feed him.

        Nothing in your post btw to take the wrong way and likewise, wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a happy new year, with plenty of wins and goals for the Irons!!!

          Its good to see youre cheerful as ever Stinger lol 😁😁
          I think there are many things they have done wrong,many things im fine with.
          As for never critising them,well i guess you have forgotten the sh*t they used to get on here when Hippo Head was manager Sting 😁

        • West Ham Fan No 32 says:

          Sounds good to me Stringer 😀 COYI !!!

        • There is so much wrong with this post Stinger.

          1/ Sean has never done a match report, or player rating, in his life
          2/ There are many sites who have no link to anyone in the club and guess at everything – perhaps you would prefer that
          3/No stories are run here without our mutual agreement, (myself and Sean), so your criticism of myself is obviously unfounded
          4/ Friendship or otherwise I do believe the owners have done a good job. There were no others wanting to take over in 2010 and none now so we are where where we are. It’s up to us to support them.
          5/ It was a joint decision by this site – congratulated by many – to take the board to task over the premium lines telephone line service. It was dropped as a result of our petition.
          6/ This site reflects everbody’s view including yours here so it can hardly be accused of propoganda.
          7/ My relationships and sources bring you some top stories, as do Sean’s, so please give it a rest. Your silly arguments simply don’t stack up.

  • Daboiflip says:

    Although the message is very jumbled i do agree with him and i also know of many others who will to yes they did save us from administration but lets not forget there were other bidders any one who says there here for the club there not tjere here for the money at the end of the day there are business men since they have took charge our fans have been so divided we use to be a family now were are divided like the author has stated we dont need a fancy stadium or posh coffee bars all we ask for is pride togetherness and someone thats give 100% all the time this is not a dig at the owners i have my own reservations regarding them but no one cant deny we as a family as fans are divided our soul has been ripped from us all for the sake of money and publisity

  • Stratford E20 says:

    I don’t understand the point of the video. I think the author has spent too much time adding little clips from, for example, Only fools and horses etc. and lost the plot. It tells us that the the fans won’t stay and ends with 60,000 in the stadium. It displays a reply email address but doesn’t ask any questions. Weird.

    • Stinger says:

      Seems as if the video and it’s so very clear message went all the way over your head then.

      Thankfully you and the above poster are just a very small handful. Everyone else gets it, understands it and is very much in agreement with it.

      • Stratford E20 says:

        Everyone else gets it do they? all 51,000 members of this site? all 54,000 match attendees? …are you their elected spokesman? No… you’re just vociferous and that doesn’t make you right. Just accept different opinions exists in all matters. Its something an adult should be capable of.

  • Still Got Dry Pants says:

    Some fans are so bleedin thick.They think they have got problems with this mob well wait until some consortium from China or America turn up.Then they will really know all about Branding,Customers & Product…jesus wept…

    • Stinger says:

      Looks as if you are the only thick one here. No doubt someone who has never even been to a West Ham game.

      These two owners and that vile excuse for a woman they employ are everything that is wrong with our club, they are the ones who are driving away proper REAL West Ham United fans.

      When it comes to these 3 “insert whatever term you choose” they really don’t understand the word UNITED at all. Or have the faintest idea about our clubs wonderful history and traditions.

      They are and have killed our club.
