@5liveSport @andros_townsend Andros Townsend chatting pure shit! West Ham got relegated so it must be our fault! You absolute 🤡

Every pundit and journalist suddenly has an opinion on West Ham because they're paid to. Some are taking pot shots at West Ham fans for wanting more from their football club. Others are showing sympathy. Most are missing the bigger picture.

Yes, we deserve to go down. The table doesn't lie. But this didn't start this season.

It started when we left Upton Park for a stadium that was never built for football. It continued through years of poor ownership, poor decision making and a club drifting without direction. Failing to replace Declan Rice. Appointing the wrong managers after David Moyes. Sacking Tim Steidten and handing more control to David Sullivan. Recruiting the wrong players and overpaying for them. £40 million for Max Kilman. £27 million for Niclas Füllkrug. Catastrophic decisions in a long line of catastrophic decisions. The Lucas Paquetá saga. Graham Potter stripping leadership from the dressing room. Rising ticket prices. Concessions removed. Fan revolts. Protests. All while clubs with smaller budgets and less prestige have overtaken us.

The debate has become far too black and white. Relegation isn't the result of one bad season. It's the consequence of a decade of mistakes. We've sleepwalked into this position.

I've never felt more empty as a West Ham fan. A 3-0 home win against Leeds should never feel hollow, but it did. Because too often this season we've fallen short of the standards expected of a club our size.

West Ham have been relegated before. But doing it in this stadium feels different. There's debt hanging over the club, reports of £150m+ in player sales needed to satisfy financial regulations, and genuine uncertainty about what comes next.

How has a club with so much potential allowed itself to end up here?

From European glory in Prague, the greatest night of my life as a West Ham fan, to the uncertainty of Championship football just a few years later.

That's not bad luck. That's years of failure catching up with us.
