Agreed - if you're 26 and can't grow one, shave it off FFS.

I think if he hands in a written request he is effectively resigning and the club (or the buying club) don't have to pay up the rest of his contract.

I don't think it's a case of manning up - but rather he will lose his right to a cut if the transfer fee if he submits a written transfer request. Certainly used to be the case. So it's all down to money again.

He's a cvnt.

No, Eto'o.

Gary Neville 66-1. I know it won't happen but weirdly I think he'd be worth a go. Have been really impressed with his obvious intelligence and knowledge of the English game. Could be a disaster though - who knows?

Lovren to Spurs for £97m Could live with that.

Better to be a big fish in a small pond. If he goes to Liverpool, he'll spend an awful long time on the bench.

Not only does your total lack of any sort of punctuation render many of your posts completely ambiguous but I find it almost impossible to want to reach the end of many of them or indeed to hold my breath long enough to be able to read any of your sentences. Gasp.

I take it you don't have Sky then.

That's genius - only to posters of a certain age though.

I don't get this at all - surely West Ham are "The Academy of Football". They've been banging on about it for the last 50 years to my knowledge. You mean they're not anymore?

Not really, apart from ice hockey, it's all you've got.

Not really - Mali no longer exists to all intents and purposes.

Why is it obvious? There is absolutely no evidence to support this statement, in fact there is rather more evidence to support the opposite.

Oh I do agree - in fact I fail to see why any centrally contracted player should be affiliated to any county in this day and age.

Twas ever thus.

The constant negativity - the way you ensure us all the time that only you know what is going to happen (and is invariably wrong) - the use of CAPITALS and bold type for no apparent reason, and your general tone aggravates me. I still remember "mark my words Lowe will be back" in June-July 2009. Thank goodness we're still waiting.

I do wish you'd STFU.

Bit harsh - he's 8 years old FFS. Don't you remember being that age?

Kenwyne goes on strike again - refused to play against Liverpool trying to engineer a move. Well, it worked once didn't it, but any interested club will be aware of his history and will probably steer clear. What a plonker.

Fantastic post - such a treat to read some positivity after some of the more hysterical outpourings. I think it's good news that we may now have a traditional board back at the club - long overdue.
