    It can only happen at West Ham

    I wonder if our maximum budget is £20m for striker one and £15m for striker two? ;hmm

    I reckon it's all a smokescreen and they have someone else lined up. I don't know who though.

    The post from Jack is pathetic.

    What is it? For those that don't follow him on Twitter...

    He used a popular acronym for 'fiddlesticks' and a sad face emoticon

    And the relevance to West Ham is? ;puzzled

    In response to what?

    Shortly after Twitter reported Bilic pulled the plug on Iheanacho.

    Who the BBC are now saying is close to joining Leicester.

    Oh dear

    Another PR classic from those involved at the club. ;doh

    So he (Jack) could be referring to

    C&H?

    The BBC?

    His dad allowing the manager to have the final say on transfers?

    All it's served to do is rile up the online fan community.

    And me, to be honest. He must have realised what would have happened. Utterly unnecessary.

    Too , but even the twonks have an opinion
    ;ok

    Mrs G,

    or, and I know this sounds really far out and crazy, he could have elected to just tweet nothing at all??..

    Barracks ;ok

    Absolutely. But he's done that loathsome fishing thing and left it there. No explanation offered. Just dangles some obviously bad news on social media and leave the fans second guessing.

    Completely irresponsible, IMO.

    Meantime we sign Andre Gray ;weep
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    No disrespect to herb but his transfer thread is now 80 pages long and all we have to show for it is a 33 year old freebie.

    Would it be possible to shut this one down and get Baz to open a new one in the hope reversing the fortunes and bringing some good karma?

    OCS ;ok I've never been happy with Jack tweeting.

    I get that he's a fan - so if he is just tweeting as a fan, fair enough I suppose. He's allowed.

    But If he's tweeting on the basis of his privileged position, and inside info as the owner's son, he should shut up.

    You can't have it both ways.

    Edit: I refer you to brookings' earlier post re twonks. ;wink
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    Are you saying that Herb is some sort of Jonah? ;lol
  • brookingsironsbrookingsirons
    MrsGrey ;ok I can only see some good news to follow another disappointing day ;ok
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    No im rather saying that Baz is a proven miracle worker and we could do with a sprinkle of his magic dust

    Tbf I am baffled by the outcry on Twitter at not signing Iheanacho.

    Gold said we're targeting 'proven PL strikers'.

    Iheanacho is not. We don't need anymore risks. We've done that with Emenike, Zaza and Calleri.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Now Hernandez. Yes please.

    Think we'll sign him.
