Gold was asked in that interview about how a lot of old businesses, which had relationships with the club for years, around the old Boleyn Ground have died off since the move. That's another reason fans are upset with him and Sullivan, the whole of that area has basically been left to go down the toilet and it's not nice to see. Basically said in reply to this that he doesn't give a toss.

They don't owe anyone a living but bloody hell and it's not their fault there's no investment from the council but bloody hell it shows they really don't understand the community of their core fanbase to dismiss an emotional subject like that so boldly. Shows what horrible Tory lizards they are.

Because someone will buy that now derelict jellied eel emporioum and turn it into 50 shoebox sized apartments. Easy money.

Again,completely wrong. Sullivan and Gold are a couple of the very few owners who have put large wads of their own money into a club.As far as Birmingham City and West Ham are concerned, they were the opposite of greedy.

I think the issue is that they made promises to the fan base that they could never keep. But it could be argued that the fans were naive for believing them in the first place

The only money that Gold and Sullivan have put into that club is to buy up shares. Meantime they have taken west ham from their east end spiritual home and setup camp in a soulless atheltics stadium. Admittedly as major shareholders they carry a lot of debt however if they do decide to sell then they will make a massive return on their investment.

That along with countless broken promises about squad investment have led to this situation

I would be appalled if this happened at Everton.

But frankly at West Ham, it just adds to the whole festival of laughs at other clubs' expense that I enjoyed this weekend.

Us winning.
RS losing, to United of all clubs.
West Ham fans going mad and their porno owners getting hounded out the ground.
23 Carra Gold spitting in a little girl's face and made to apologise on live tv.

What a weekend.

They have a large far right contingent, some of whom I think are actually working with the club and threatened people going on a march. The ICF. Let's just say I have very, very good reasons to hate them.

If being passionate means being like that shower of idiots, then I'm glad I don't care as much about football as I used to. Good thing none of them were packing a blade.
