Isn't it around player sales and the many issues with the new stadium?

They feel a disconnect having left their old ground?

They were promised they'd step up a level with the new stadium but they have only spent £29 million on transfers or something like that?

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Well half of them feel a disconnect - if they were still at Upton Park the other half wouldn’t even be able to get in

I have read that but seemed to be more about the different factions as opposed to the underlying reasons

Depsite knowing at least 50 West Ham fans, I don’t know a single fan who wanted (before or after) them to leave Upton Park.

They feel the move from their roots to the athletics stadium is the biggest example that there club has ‘gone corporate’. They blame the ownership for that.

For them that make the move from Chadwell Heath to Emerson Park there's no going back.

It’s more that they’ve gone from a stadium with a great atmosphere with the stands close to the pitch to a soulless bowl of an athletics stadium that’s 30 metres from the pitch.

The main issue seems to be they are losing. That compounds the other off-field problems. I doubt people would bcomplaining if they were top half and scoring a few goals. Although tbf, the stadium move has had criticism from the start.

They feel entitled to top flight, competitive football playing a slick passing game that is the West Ham way. Oh, and they won the World Cup too. Nuff said.

I guess the promise to the fans revolved around bigger gates enabling them to compete. As they then aren't spending big or competing the feeling of what has been lost rankles all the more.

The main issue is that the owners and Brady are c***s and the supporters are c***s

A couple of years in the prem with bigger gates and prem money and they could become one of the leagues regulars. Not upset that its imploding so quickly bearing in mind the deal they got on the stadium. They will soon be back on a par with us.

Despite the money the owners have made from the stadium sale and and deal they got on the Olympic Park. they still expect the tax payers to pay for everything that needs upgrading..

And the current owners treat it like a play thing. They interfere in player recruitment and selection, let one of their sons get involved, who has nothing to so with the club in a professional capacity and they skim money off the club and into their pockets.

Plus they sold the “leave Upton Park” story on a pack of lies. Think Boris’s bus...

Its amazing in this day and age how people running football clubs can hide and obscure where money goes. I bet no WHU fans will ever get to know exactly how much money get drawn of by directors and their family members.

And I’m sure I’ve read that the rent on the stadium goes down in the event of relegation.
