That just about sums up his comments. What foreign players have we dropped? I really don't believe some of the dross some people are paid to come out with. After doing his research Gale meant for the Norwich game, Garde saw sense to drop Amavi, Traore, Guzan, Kozak, Ayew and Gestede. That's why we won.

Another member of the old boys club. We need more 'honest' British players like Hutton & Richardson according to them and promotion from the Championship is only possible if you apoint Allardyce, McCarthy, Warnock or some other washed up British manager. Utter bollocks.
Tony Gale is a fucking idiot.

I remember a few years ago someone posting audio commentary of the 4-0 win at Blackburn from either the club or a local station and one of the commentators was practically sobbing over the injustice of it all. Was that him? It was an estuary accent rather a Lancs one so could well be.

I'm not aware West Ham have ever been champions of England ? They may have won the FA Cup 3 times since we last won it BUT did as much as we'd like to get an 8th win, did winning the FA Cup make Coventry, Wigan, The Olbion and Wimbledon bigger than us ??Don't even start me on champions of Europe -- Oh I forgot, they did win the now defunct Cup Winners Cup 50 or so years ago.Anybody going to let me know how many years they've spent in the elite league - I don't know, but I'd say it's nowhere near as many years as us. Oh and one other thing, I only went to Upton Park 3 times (1976, that FA Cup game and 1983) and I'm not sorry I'll never go there again.Sorry for the rant, but I've never forgotten that FA Cup game and how they've dined out on 1966 and being the blue eyed boys of football ever since. I stopped watching Eastenders years ago as well !
