O'Neill Rejects west ham interest!

[spangley1812]

I agree with East19, let's see where he takes us instead of judging him on 4 months work.

No problem but he needs to start getting some results

[Karl Bridges]

Just around the corner, I can feel it in my bones.

Sky News are reporting that BAA have warned there could be major delays at Heathrow due to safety measures when West Ham are at home if MON is appointed at Upton Park.

I don't get it.

Long balls, kicked high into the sky..........may hit the planes

Oh. Might have got it if it'd been City Airport as it's in the vague vicinity. Or even Stansted.

That's my excuse anyway.

[Karl Bridges]

Noble has just had to go off injured for Wet Spam, if Parker's injury is bad they are in big shit.

[lovejoy]

Look at his overall record as a manager and what he has won , and give houllier time to build his  team in the same way mon was given time to build a team - houllier will come good .

Martin did a decent job here but given time I believe houllier will do a great job.

The only direct comparison you can make is with the current squad. Last season 6th, this season 19th. Who knows what MON would have done at Liverpool. All conjecture.

SSN have just said 'they've held talks and he's their number 1 target, but McLaren and Allardyce have also been sounded out'.

I'd imagine if its leaked this early ('cos of Gold and Sullivan, no doubt), O'Neill won't be happy.

No dave what I find strange is the statement from west ham saying they don't know where this report came from , when sky have said it was from a senior west ham source who leaked the story to them at 1 45 am, seems the board have a mole.

Agreed o neill will probably be furious this has came out in this way, as for sky saying now they have held talks , well they said this morning he had agreed to take over and I pasted BBC and sky websites saying that this morning- maybe this leak has pissed him off?

A board member who the Guardian spoke to doesn't know who spoke to Sky or why?

Nope, still not sure what's strange about that.

Which would be fine, except it's not last season's squad is it? That team's best player is at Man City.

[Mac]

There's very few people who would have leaked this, and it doesn't show MON in a good light so I doubt if it's come from his side.

You cant compare as the board sold Milner who was our best player last season

and a saviour on the way.

You can't really compare houllier this season to mon last season, mon built his side over 4 yrs , houllier has had 4 months with players he inherited- he has to be given time to build a team in that respect.

How sad to hear arsenal fans chanting 'your sacked and you know you are' at grant - a decent man being treated like shit!

[Holtenderinthesky]

Would he really want to go there in their state?  Arsenal are ripping them apart at the minute.
