What do West Ham fans think about Manchester City sniffing around their star striker?
by Dexter on July 23rd, 2008Don’t forget to check out Online Football Manager!
The Daily Mail reports that Man City boss Mark Hughes has faced up to the fact that Jo is swanning off to the Olympics and just witnessed Benjani get himself crocked, so he’s planning a bid for Craig Bellamy.
As Bobby Zamora predicted when he left West Ham, his departure was only the tip of the iceberg, and it looks like Bellamy could be leaving Upton Park too.
With record £19m signing Jo representing Brazil at the Beijing Olympics until September, Hughes saw his strikeforce weakened even further when Zimbabwe striker Benjani suffered a serious thigh injury in training.
The City boss immediately turned to Bellamy, who played some of his best football under Hughes when he was in charge of Wales and Blackburn.
The 29-year-old former Newcastle and Celtic forward endured an injury-hit first season at Upton Park and is one of the high-earners West Ham would like to get off their wage bill following his £7.5m move from Liverpool last summer. (Daily Mail)
So how would West Ham fans feel about Bellamy waving goodbye after such an unspectacular and injury-blighted first season?

OOOHHHHHH,id love to sniff round Bellamys big bell
OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH all that cheese.
MICK - July 23rd, 2008 at 7:53 pm
why the fuck would we want to sign Bellamy,good player, but hes going for Darren Andertons record for sicknotes.
Adz - July 23rd, 2008 at 7:59 pm
Agree with Mick. Waste of time Bellamy, just another Robbie Savage
Charlie - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:07 pm
Why the fuck would he wanna’ join Man shitty anyways ? He’s at a way better club .
Greekous - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:11 pm
Sorry to inform Man Shit but Bellamy is class and would not leave WHU for you. Ok he has his injuries but if WH get 20 games out of him this season we will finish above YOU
chris - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:17 pm
he aint gonna leave west ham.
woodsy - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:20 pm
we’ll see you cocks……wake up and smell the coffee Hammers. Your a small time club!
jkl - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:22 pm
WTF STAR STRIKER U NOT HEARD OF NAME DEAN ASHTON !!
Mockney Slater - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:23 pm
Errrrr……………… not that we want him anyway, but considering your results against us last season (2 defeats, 2 draws) and our final league standings (not to mention the arrival of big Jo compared to a Swiss RB), it’s pretty incredible that you lot think you’re gonna finish above us. Then again, you probably think Eastenders is high art. Dream on - mediocrity awaits (again). City moving onwards and upwards without that little Welsh gobshite.
jack - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:24 pm
bwaaahahaahaha West Sham finish above city haha. one the funniest things i’ve ever heard!

no idea where these people get their information from, bellamy is not one of the high earners at west ham. the high earners came in after him. the highest earners are upson, neill, ljungberg and now ashton. bellamy was injured for nearly all of last season and the club are looking forward to to the ashton/bellamy pairing up front that we should have had last season.
Anonymous - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:35 pm
dream on bubbles city will easily finish above you!
zack - July 23rd, 2008 at 8:35 pm

GingerYId - July 23rd, 2008 at 10:11 pm
Man City - you suffer from being the poor relation and have a massive chip on your shoulders - get over it and grow up… it will help i promise

Danny Blue - July 23rd, 2008 at 11:00 pm
Dan, I’m almost ashamed i’ve got the same name as you, you f*ckin inbred, 6 fingered tw*t! You’ve obviously been hit over the head with an Iron Hammer too many times and if you can peel your tongue away from that window for just one second and take in some reality you’d realise their is no way we would sign Bellamy! He’s not a bad player but at the end of the day but Man City are miles ahead of West Ham in History and current standings. When we take six points off of you this season don’t cry, do what you normally do and watch re-runs of Eastenders and jack off to Sonia! All better now init mate!
sooth - July 23rd, 2008 at 11:12 pm
he is a little no neck bitter kunt…no way would I pay money to watch that ugly gobshite in a city shirt..I’d be devasted if we sign that twat

Man city fans are deluded as spurs fans. Yet again it will be a two horse race with chelski and man utd going for the title, arsenal rds and liverpool scrambling to 4th. Then after that its anyones. spurs money has dried up, man city are trying to buy success but unlike chelski are failing and will finish 5th if best. Lets see how ling hughes lasts before being dumped and the dictator brings in someone else to waste money and finish disapointing. I know lets see curbs spend (waste) the money spurs have and man city have!!! after the top four everyone is scrapping for uefa cup football and it could be any of a number of teams.

at least man city beat the crap outta manure last season.
City Slicker - July 24th, 2008 at 7:21 am
I would have thought there would be at least one West Ham fan with an IQ greater than his shoe size. Yosser obvioulsy thinks he can keep Bellamys attitude in check but as with other City fans here I wouldn’t want him anywhere near the club. Just not our kind of player. Scores goals but he’s a really nasty piece of work. As for West Ham finishing above City I haven’t laughed so much for years. Cheers for that you cockney comics.

GingerYId 07.23.08 at 10:11 pm Man City - you suffer from being the poor relation and have a massive chip on your shoulders
At least there is only one team that we have to worry about in Greater Manchester. Your team are below: Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs, Fulham, Millwall and QPR. That’s alot of chips dude!! Get over us.

Anyway - back to the question - A fit Bellamy is an awsome player. Every time he played for us last year he scared the shit out of opposition defences. Definitely would like to see him stay but stay fit too.
BTW - well done for your double over Manure last year.
Chim Chiminey, Chim Chiminey, Chim Chim Cheeroo, We are those Bastards in Claret & Blue!!!!!!
Mockney Slater - July 24th, 2008 at 9:47 am
Year-in-year-out struggle? Excuse me - but who was in the Championship a couple of seasons ago? And who finished higher last year?
Dave Hall - July 24th, 2008 at 12:13 pm
Grow up mosside people like you are a thing of the passed, you’re pathetic you muppet.
Dave Hall - July 24th, 2008 at 12:18 pm
And as for them wanting Bellamy, this is a story out of the Daily mail, a complete load of old crap of a paper.
YSB - July 24th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
So the dictator spunks his load on an unproven striker that won’t be available for the start of the season and now find himself in the shit as his strike force is depleted further.
Why the f**k has Sparky got into bed with this rabble?
Dave - July 24th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
I have one thing to say…
GET FUCKED MARK HUGHES!!!!!!!!
BELLAMY AIN’T GOING NO WHERE!!!!!!!!
MAN CITY ARE SHIT!!!!!!!!
Dave is far from..... - July 24th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
Intelligent!!!!
Dave Hall - July 24th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
Far from intelligent,and thats coming from someone with the iq of a brocolli leaf
Goatygav - July 24th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
How did we get from a debate about what West Ham fans think to a bout of playground like namecalling?
Hammers fans want to keep him. City fans don’t want him. End of!!!
Come on You Rip Roarin’, Goal Scorin’ IRONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dave Hall - July 24th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Personally I get sick and tired of lame rumours that the papers spew. Rumours that have no substance to them and insult the intelligence. Silly season is fast becoming more sillier by the day.
Marleeeen depreciation society - July 24th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
i genuinely feel sorry for man city fans, their thai bride is going to implode sooner or later and leave the club stuffed. he sacked the best club manager you’re ever likely to have and brought in yosser hughes who is a good on the cheap style manager, not a big name player attracter. all in all a very fragile set of circumstances. a pity really as it was starting to look like manchester wasn’t a 1 team city anymore.
on the other hand, west ham have a very stable base and are quietly and calmly going about the business of making solid foundations for the near and long term future rather than buying their way to the top 4 like chelsea.
zako - July 24th, 2008 at 5:48 pm
hey you can all fuk of u london scum coz we are the only team in manchester……. united arnet in manchester u stupid cunts !!!!! oh n guees what why would we want the fukin trouble causing umpa lumpa !
Dave Hall - July 24th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
It’s the likes of people like you zako that give our great sport a bad name. Thankfully you are a minority
Karl - July 25th, 2008 at 3:48 pm
I noticed one fan said we were stuggling year in year out before last season…. No offence mate but it wasnt that long ago West Ham were struggling to get back into the premiership never mind stay in it.
Mitch IRONSSSSSS - August 1st, 2008 at 4:33 pm
haha u man city fans do make me laugh ya no! the only reason that u have any chance of doing well is becuase u have this corrupt chairman who will probably end up behind bars buying ur way to the top… before he came along u were nothing! you talk about us struggling in recent years, and yes we did but we had fuckin glenn roeder in the hotseat and had got ridden of harry redknapp, there were a whole load of shit things going on, but even then wtf were city doing? fuck all! thats what. ur shit face it, with a fit squad next year well do you over no problem…with fat slow pieces of shit like ben haim in your backline bellamy will run you ragged! and then you northern cunts will be wishing you bought him ya bunch of tossers
spurs are shit - August 29th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUU IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
mummy badgers - June 8th, 2009 at 8:31 pm
i think spurs have nice grass, but man city lines on the pitch are a bit straighter. this in no way has anything to do with foozball.
