@curtiswoodhous8 No one I know at West Ham has ever spoken about the 'West Ham way'. It seems to be the media talking about something the media made up.
West Ham United’s impending relegation is the result of years of mismanagement and slow decline. The patchwork football club, in the 60k makeshift stadium overtaken by dozens of better run, historically smaller clubs with barely half that.
Run with idiotic, short term thinking, by a chairman who knows the cost of everything and the value of nothing. Loyal fans cast aside and treated with total disdain. No plan off the pitch, a confused mess on it, born from a total lack of professionalism and planning.
Fighting relegation most seasons, despite regularly spending hundreds of millions (via payday loans) on old players recommended by the owners’ mates. A few memorable seasons with David Moyes papering over the huge cracks in the poorly hidden running track.
A decade after we left the Boleyn Ground, WHU has never felt more lost. You’ll see few highlight reels from the club for the upcoming anniversary: for the most part, it’s been a torrid decade in the bowl.
If relegation rids us of Sullivan, so be it. But with 100m of debt (how?) and double that owed in player purchases, it could be a long, long time before we’re at this level again. We’re about to find out just how many clubs we’ve fallen behind.

So bored of reading the constant “top six” bias when it comes to players like Jarrod Bowen and England squads.
Consistently one of the highest performing English wingers in the Premier League for G/A, and doing it this season too in a West Ham side battling relegation, not even being a regular penalty taker.
He’s been matching or many times outperforming players like Saka for years now, yet people still laugh it off because the media love to constantly overhype players in the top six.
We saw the exact same thing with underrating Rice. World class for years, no one took it seriously until he moved to Arsenal and magically became world class overnight. Nothing changed but the badge.
Before Arsenal fans jump on this, I’m not saying Saka shouldn’t be in the squad or that he’s worse, just that he and Bowen perform at a similar level but an example that only one gets the attention and respect because of the club he plays for.
You’ve got people calling for the likes of Madueke to be in ahead of him or laughing at the suggestion of Bowen being included. Absolute joke.
