Pity about those naughty boys acting like 'ammers fans before the game though.<br /><br />I genuinely feel for your club, I think you'll leave your heart in the old ground. One more money factory chasing the lucre until it all implodes. Thank God for fishing.Dave Burrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08259482046178828401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558987905791642824.post-58906681260524314132016-05-10T18:15:09.862+01:002016-05-10T18:15:09.862+01:00Dave,

Did not get a sniff in the ballot for tonight.<br /><br />So the wife behind my back paid for the game. She signed up to Sky Sports, something that I've always avoided.<br /><br />The new ground, well not for me. We have sold 52,000 season tickets. But it will be a different club. A few years from now it will be sold possibly to an over seas Arab or the like. I'll stick to a few away games.<br /><br />Lots of memories in the last 41 years since I first went, good and bad. I reckon it will hit me when we run out for the last time to "bubbles". Time moves on, in this case not for the good. I am happy with the club we have, not what Karen Brady suggested in the press today.<br /><br />Time for a beer and get the tissues ready. ;-0Monty Dalrymplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07793157290306665840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558987905791642824.post-40712657509950707852016-05-10T09:50:04.868+01:002016-05-10T09:50:04.868+01:00I for one will miss your blog mate, one of the bes...I for one will miss your blog mate, one of the best. If you have something to say come back and say it - please.<br /><br />As for Upton Park, which is now referred to as 'The Bowling Green' despite umpteen ears of the former?!? I used to love going to the Dell which was similarly compact, the atmosphere at grounds like that have been lost forever. Sure 60000 fans will bring in the money and West Ham will just become another corporate monster like the rest of the league. <br /><br />God bless Leicester for a chink of light in an impersonal jungle and I hope your boys do the honourable thing this evening and roll over so that we can get fourth place over the City :o)<br /><br />Dave Burrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08259482046178828401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558987905791642824.post-62465514765345286582016-05-09T17:30:55.487+01:002016-05-09T17:30:55.487+01:00I have been fishing, Trout and a Pike day on a six...I have been fishing, Trout and a Pike day on a six hundred acre "Any Method Trout" ressie the other week.<br /><br />I put the blog to bed in January, got bored of doing it. Only so much you can say angling wise IMO. The piss taking etc was easy, but writing about my fishing became a chore.<br /><br />Anyway more important things at present, tommrow and a move away from the "Old Girl" after a 112 years. ;-0<br />Monty Dalrymplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07793157290306665840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558987905791642824.post-59583678083667057742016-05-09T09:18:08.882+01:002016-05-09T09:18:08.882+01:00But I'm on a diet!
