£31 million the latest offer to be turned down according to SSN

Is this a 3rd offer ? If we’ve turned down £30 million are we really going to go for a restructured deal with one more million when the release clause is £50 million. West Ham can’t afford him.

Reports from Wales that a county is now in local lockdown after a cluster of cases linked to a club trip by coach to Doncaster races last week. The coach stopped at a number of pubs both on the way there and the way back. We really do seem to be shooting ourselves in the foot. I fear it will be a l...

Boss Hogg

Haven’t watched the latest interview but some of the questions he faces are just repetitions of what has just been asked. It’s as though the journalist has pre set questions and can’t think on the spot if someone else has already asked the same question. Must get tiresome. He is very professional in...

I had some building work done just after lockdown was eased by a local tradesman. When I asked if he could email me a copy of the invoice detailing all the costs involved he said he would but he had ' problems' with his computer and couldn't provide an invoice on headed paper. Me thinks he may have...

Less likely to pass on the virus by driving there in your own vehicle and parking close to ground than walking further amongst others even though you live nearer.

Boss Hogg

Still can’t understand why you wear a mask in a shop but not in a cafe, restaurant or plane when you are eating or when drinking in a pub with loads of strangers. It’s actually plain stupid. Either it’s safe or it’s not. I can sit in cramped pub with strangers but not sit with another household if n...

Anyone who thinks there was anything remotely ‘nice’ about Hitler can’t be the full shilling. Not sure what that has to do with Jim Davidson. Whatever Davidson thinks I’m sure he is not into mass torture and genocide.

Boss Hogg

Not saying its not needed as the EFL clubs must be really struggling, however there is so much conflicting stuff from government, cant meet my family in my garden but can go to the toilet at half time with strangers at the footie. No wonder a large % of people arent bothering with the rules anymore...

Boss Hogg

Can’t continue forever. It’s been a abused by some companies where employees have continued to work and others where staff were already being laid off prior to the virus. A lot of people being paid by taxpayers to sit outside pubs midweek in the sunshine at the moment when they could be doing someth...

Boss Hogg

Sad to hear that - the club has been in existence for around150 years! In this day and age you would think £500k isn't a huge amount in football (one or two week's wage for a top Prem player) but it just shows the massive gap between our professional clubs. Sadly there will be more clubs to go the ...

Boss Hogg

The problem has to be dealt with at source. Human Traffickers, the controls on the French side and the desirability to get here instead of other closer countries.

Boss Hogg

They don’t take payments out as far as I know. Their shares are worth far more now than when they bought them. Plenty of profit in it for them.

Boss Hogg

Have some of you spent all summer obsessing over this ? I don’t see any desperate need for new bodies. Barney’s back on the grass and Erik (good pro) can cover at least three positions. Plus we’ve got the up and coming Longy to provide adequate cover at centre half. It’s sorted. We should direct ou...

The population of the UK rose by 6.6 million between 2001 and 2016. 80% of this increase is down to immigration ( immigrants and their children). By 2010 top 5 counties of birth were ROI, India, Pakistan, Germany and Poland. The UK needs 200.000 new homes per year to meet demand. An extra 750,000 ex...

No shame in that, and something certain Brits are quick to forget when they're critical of US foreign policy today. Damned if you do, damned if you don't! Truth of the matter was the Battle of Britain was a foregone conclusion, and a certain victory for us at a time before the US joined the war. Th...

Who cares

no wonder cases are rising. Hopefully you, your relatives and friends won’t die from COVID.

Boss Hogg

We are struggling to get one replacement in. Let’s not try to run before we can walk ...... maybe Garlick thinks letting go of 5 and signing one means we’ve made a signing and had a good window.

Boss Hogg

Good player but complete c*ck. A bit like a lesser Ronaldo.

Boss Hogg

Ken Bruce and Craig Charles are very good but Steve Wright should have been out out to pasture years ago. He runs the same format of show with the same music as though it were still the 80s or 90s. What on earth is the ‘serious jokin’ thing all about. If the car radio has been left in the wrong stat...

Boss Hogg

Awful. Turn her off as soon as I hear her. Must be a lot of people who do like her though as there must be for Nihal on Radio 5 who I also turn off straight away.

Boss Hogg

Without a Western Front and a country to launch it from France would still be occupied by Germans. They wouldn’t be complaining about anything today as per post.

Boss Hogg

Pivotal moment in our history. Nobody would have the choice to complain about anything today if we hadn’t won. Most of the people complaining wouldn’t be here either. The alternative though doesn’t bear thinking about. Brave selfless men.

Boss Hogg

I wonder if Sky will bother sending a reporter to Turf Moor on deadline day this year. Might have finally clicked that howling winds and Tumbleweed rolling down the hill and across the pitch isn’t great for viewing figures.

Boss Hogg

Interesting to see there are 8,000 thumbs up and 225 down.

Boss Hogg

I don’t like ‘comedians’ who feel they have to use the F word all the time. It doesn’t make it more funny.

Which bit does he have a point?

The women in Lidl

Boss Hogg

Was never a great fan other than his Rainbow impressions which have always been good. Was expecting to see someone past his time but he has a point.

Boss Hogg

You can do all that at home. You might have to open a window to smell the grasss or you could sit outside with an I pad

Boss Hogg

Glad it’s been made available. There’s a recent film on Amazon that will cost me £8 ( don’t go to the cinema ). Would I pay £2 more to watch Burnley ? Yes. Say you were only prepared to pay £6 what are you going to spend the other £4 on ? You’ll be saving that by not buying petrol, a pie or a progra...

Boss Hogg

Wonder what our quietest ever transfer window was ?

Boss Hogg

I have it on good authority that the club fax machine will be fully oiled, dusted down and fully loaded with paper in this eventuality on deadline day.

Boss Hogg

The positives:

First 11 are good ( as long as we don’t lose anyone else or have any injuries)

There are still good odds on us to be relegated

This ain't a laughing matter granny. It's pure facts that we've been busy in the transfer market so far.

So is it or isn’t it a laughing matter ? Maybe you hit the laughing emoji button by mistake

Boss Hogg

Moyes always looks like a dead man walking. Don’t know how he motivates anyone. Definately wouldn’t ever him here. West Ham were very poor yesterday and made Newcastle look better than they were. Between him or Parker for me. Don’t see Dyche leaving unless there’s another job or we get off to a woef...

Boss Hogg

Seems strange to have a recruitment team and Rigg’s role if they haven’t a clue what the financial perameters are. How much time must be wasted for it all to go nowhere time and again. Strange way to delegate and run a business.

If someone else had posted something with inflammatory opinion such as this it would have been removed.

I know someone who won’t post on here at the moment as he received a ban without explanation. He says it’s like the message board is run by the Stasi.

Boss Hogg

I was going to start reading a new book tonight. I don’t need to bother.

Boss Hogg

West Ham poor and looks like a continuation of last season. Glad I put a bet on last week for them to get relegated.

Boss Hogg

I don’t think he will. Glad you are so pleased for the lad and Newcastle though.

Boss Hogg

He got a goal and an assist but his general game didn’t look that great. He’s an a bang average PL player. Let’s see how he’s doing after a dozen games. Don’t get the love in from some like they’be lost part of the family and wanting him to do so well for another club. He was offered a deal, wasn’t ...

There's something on is in tomorrow's paper.

I’m sure it will be groundbreaking if it’s from Nixon.

Liverpool look anything but likely winners this year. Leeds will beat enough sides but will also get some good beatings by better teams. Both defences look awful.

Boss Hogg

Any idea when the 3rd kit will be out ?

Boss Hogg

As far as a black kits go ( which I’m not a fan of generally) it’s not bad at all. As someone says above more thought has gone into it than the home kit ( which I don’t like). Hope the yellow one is good.

Boss Hogg

Would prefer a yellow away ( not third) kit instead black

Boss Hogg

Think Garlick will want the cheques to clear first before we start looking for replacements.

Boss Hogg

My source tells me we are trying to sign a first team ready player but probably won’t be finalised before our first game. This is aside from Tarkowski who we’d need to replace too if the valuation was met. Don’t shoot the messenger.

Boss Hogg

He’s worth more than £30m to us. We won’t be able to spend the money in time with all the dilly dallying around we do.

Boss Hogg

Nowhere near good enough for the Premier League and probably not even Chanpionship ( certainly not top end clubs).

Boss Hogg

Wonder how much The Telegraph paid him. He’s had his chances. No time for him.
