Alain Perrin Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 When I was growing up I always liked West Ham but I am so glad that we got the automatic place ahead of them. For the following reasons: 1) Porn dollars shouldn't buy promotion. They've spent so much money this season, whilst in so much debt. 2) Their insistence that Sharp dived when Taylor grabbed him round the throat - the laughable thread on their forum claiming the picture of a hand around his neck was Photoshop'd. And they're still going on about it now. Remind me about how the appeal went on that one guys? 3) Their feeling of entitlement (reminds me a bit of the 'we will walk this league' mentality on here when we went down). 4) The use of parachute payments as a means to spend your way back to the premiership rather than break the fall (not uniquely a West Ham approach though) 5) Sam Allardick. Loves himself. 6) The fact that they perpetrated the biggest fraud of recent years by staying up with illegal players and then just got fined thanks to Sir Trev and others in the FA (pile it on the debt boys, no worries). So, in the words of Big Kev, "I will love it, love it, if they lose in the playoffs". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 Most of that goes over my head, but 6) - that was naughty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobM Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 I bet on KUMB they have the same thread but about us, listing this thread as all-six reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 Despite them being neanderthals and lacking class, I still think they deserve to win the 3rd spot. They had us on the ropes when they tw*tted Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 They deserve to go up to be fair. But I have soft spot for Cardiff City. So will be hoping the Bluebirds make the final and join Swansea and us in the EPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjsaint Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 Come on Cardiff... This. Awkward away day compared to WHU and Brum for me. But I used to live in Cardiff & would love to see them go up. That friendly rivalry between Cardiff & Swansea should be interesting in the Prem! I just do not not not want Blackpool. The Premiership is a better place without mediocre comedians like rent-a-quote Olly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
