You mean West Bolton United Wanderers......... :P

Ha ha, a tonne of my mates and wife are hammers fans and they are all up and about especially after the crap I have given them about stealing all Bolton's old players and manager and then we get relegated I expect a long year of ribbin off them.

Ha ! Wasn't aware of that although obviously knew about Sam Allardyce and his years at Bolton . Your blokes punched well above their weight for quite some time but it's awfully difficult to sustain it when it's not a level playing field . The 'Money' clubs are nearly always going to dominate and now there's about 7 or 8 of them (if you count Spurs and Newcastle) .

I'm more a fan of the EPL rather than being a fanatical Hammers fan . Watch the big games and hope that West Ham can finish mid table or slightly better . Be interesting to see how West Ham fare if they snag the Olympic stadium .

The Championship is terrific to watch as well . Bolton should bounce back well , but there's no guarantees .

 

Upton park is a amazing ground, I think if they move they will struggle to intimidate sides as much.

Upton park is a amazing ground, I think if they move they will struggle to intimidate sides as much.

They will be looking at the $'s . Might attract a big benefactor as well .

There's 2 league's within the one league and getting into the top echelon requires big bucks . West Ham could only get bigger if they got that stadium . Might upset the hard core fans for a time but the alternative is to often try to avoid relegation or play in the championship .

It's worth a punt . Big upside .


I thought the move was sorted...?

I thought the move was sorted...?

It's not done yet unless I've missed the latest .......possibly a decision by October ?

 

Van Persie to Man United is huge!

Could be a title-winning signing.

$30 million transfer fee I heard this morning. Big move.

Van Persie is pretty much the best striker in the world, him up front with Hernandez and Rooney playing Scholes central striker role I reckon they will hammer this comp.


  • Author

In the end the Robin van Persie transfer fee was worth nearly $36 million (AUD) . He's getting paid $298,000 per week in an overall deal worth just under $60 million (AUD) . Nice coin !

Javier Hernandez ('Chicharito') could end up at the Gunners (according to the 'Mirror' online...)

Gunners win 2 - 0 at Anfield . Liverpool dominated for a fair portion of the game but couldn't convert . Podolski scored a nice opening goal for Arsenal .

Happy for my Hammers to get Andy Carroll on loan for the season . On the surface of things , it did seem an odd decision by Liverpool to let him go . He helped West Ham win against Fulham although he did strain a hamstring late in the game . Lofty heights for the Hammers - currently 6th !

just wanted to say...good to see the news this week with the Establishment finally admitting they covered up the real story of Hillsborough, and not only that but made up outright lies about Liverpool supporters just so the Police wouldn't be blamed for their incompetence.

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
