Maybe it was a dig and I should overlook what was said, but I found it distasteful at the time tbh. Besides, I was being constructive with the rest of my post if you'd bothered to read it. I didn't realise someone had put you in charge of the thread though, so apologies for that.

More (better) stewards to marshall the train queues. Sick to death of seeing trains leave with space at the ends of the carriages. Agree with @Man of Harveys, improve comfort around train queue provisions. The fan zone is a step in the right direction though. My only other suggestion is an...

And donors to that 40 note fund or whatever it was.

I am going to take issue with this narrative that Paul Barber is "elite" He is clearly a very competent CEO, but I've met loads of very competent CEOs who don't command salaries of £3m per year. Just to reiterate, I'm not suggesting he's useless, but I would be willing to bet you 30p that this...

France 10 Scotland 10 England 13

The problem isn't as simple as that. The population explosion has been largely happening (for decades) in poorer nations where consumption of resources is sometimes inconsequential. Meanwhile, Western nations have a falling birthrate yet continue to hog the planet's resources. So cutting...

You forgot Sheffield Wednesday.

Leicester are truly dog shit. West Ham doing that side to side thing Potter likes, but looking impotent until Leicester's defence showed just why they've kept one clean sheet all season. Back to the Championship for them. Wolves are about 100 times better I'm afraid.

England's team selection again completely retarded. The pitch again is proper slow, so England decide to pick Wood, Overton and Archer. I'll never understand why they picked a third quick on a pitch with no pace. So not quick enough to coax an error but fast enough for the batsmen to use the...

Harsh. It is 100 miles (and that route is shite with hardly any motorway) for a televised early evening kick off - and they returned one block. Fulham took a LOT less to Wolves.

Or you could say we won the South Coast Cup, played over the end of February: Southampton 1-3 Bournemouth Southampton 0-4 Bournemouth Brighton 2-1 Bournemouth ...which is a major trophy in my book. But to be proper top dogs (as we have been for the last 3 seasons) it is all about who...

Talking of away support, Bournemouth's was very decent considering it was on telly and they are 100 miles away.

Anyone vaguely familiar with @Buzzer (who hasn't been seen in these parts for years) will know the good old fashioned V sign never left the building.

Do you have to wait until the end of the season for this, or can you demand it in... *checks calendar* ...February?

West Ham fans have been quietly happy with him so far. It's nice to think of them as our fluffers - getting him ready for us, next season (in the Champions League). :cool:

I have no problem with his performance last night whilst acknowledging that he was under massive pressure very often. Bournemouth targeted the right side, and then when the subs were made, it became obvious that actually it was Lamptey himself that they were targeting. So he was under massive...

There's no way that JPVH "handball" was being given, ever (well, aside from the early days of VAR). It's point blank and even then it barely brushes him. "Umpires call" is a massive stretch for that one. Our one was more subjective. I agree with you that it was unlikely JP was getting there...

Exactly. An away game in Barcelona or Madrid in a group game would see 7-8,000 make the trip - maybe more. Why wouldn't you go if you could? We'd be unlikely to play them again in meaningful competition. Meanwhile, we'd enjoy giving Palace another patronising pat on the head for finishing...

We've had history with them for over 50 years. They're in the same bin as Reading and to a lesser extent, Luton and Swindon. I don't care how good we were, they were or the game was, I can guarantee you that the magnanimous posts would not be flowing on here if we'd lost that game. I wouldn't...

Astonishing that people are still moaning at the ref. He made a few mistakes, but not many. Meanwhile he managed to let a very physical game flow while retaining complete control of the players. I'm calling it as one of the best refereeing performances of the season at the Amex.
