Backtrack on Soloman ridiculous. What about Benayoun? What about Bercovic? They were Israeli internationals. Both played very well at WH. Mad policy if true

I thought the Soloman deal had stalled because Spurs want promotion-related bonuses, so if West Ham get promoted, then Spurs get more money. ?

Ornstein saying we are looking to pay £5m, but we won't agree to the bonuses Spurs want based on promotion.
I mean, if it's only £5m, the bonuses you'd have thought wouldn't be too crazy, or it could just be an excuse, and really it is due to non-football related reasons.

WH have got it very wrong, Al. Whatever the reasons, big mistake. Should back up and sort it out.

Absolutely terrible decision. Political problems should have no bearing on our decisions unless a particular country or person has been banned.

It'll be money-related, nothing else.

I think, or I hope, this is a monetary decision, in which case we are a laughing stock.
If it's driven by something outside of WH Football Club, then it's even worse.
What will be next? Stick to football, backtrack on this silly decision tomorrow.

Told you, Joyful, you should be head of recruitment. LOL. ? ? ? Can't do any worse.

West Ham do not have a plan now, they are trying to fill holes, whilst everyone understands the fiscal situation, you still must have a direction.
Mac, we haven't got one, that's the truth, that's easily seen.
Manor Solomon is the best value of the three wingers that West Ham decided on, Sorba Thomas too dear to buy, Adingra, loan with option, Sunderland not keen, ok then Solomon.
No, he's too much, ok play Cornet, see where that gets you, answer nowhere.
West Ham will pay for the neglect, one way or another, football is unforgiving.

We found out to our cost previously how poor recruitment can cost you, and we are doing the same thing again.
Where is the ambition to get us back in the Premier League?
I can't see it. Yes, we have debt, but that's where our owners need to be clever and recruit wisely.
32k a week for Bamba Dieng is a joke, considering what we've saved selling players who earned a lot more.
Refusing to buy Solomon for £5m, and paying Spurs another £2m if we get promoted, even had my wife and son laughing.
An absolute circus run by clowns.
