Alan Curbishley: the poll

Post by Up the Junction »

Much of the media claim most Hammers want Curbishley fired. Previous polls here on KUMB.com have indicated the exact opposite.

So, nice and straightforward. Which side of the line do you stand?

Let's see ...

This is pretty simple.

As much as people might be anti-Curbs (I'm not), he's an ally compared to those bastards in charge.

I Really don't think i can answer that question. I will now back him while he is here, but also feel him leaving would be for the good of the club. :think:

Back him as totally pointless letting him go now. Must be given the season and then a decision made based on performance.

I voted back him and have backed him from the start of his reign , just look at my previous posts

Like I said on 606 when my email got read out the media are blowing this out of proportion , its only a small pocket of hammers fans who dont want him at the club.The media have read into to much of the couple of hundred west ham fans singing "your getting sacked in the morning" chant.

Lets hope curbs does well for us this season and judging from the early stages of this poll , curbs , you have our backing :thup:

Back him. In all truth, he hasn't done much wrong, and in difficult circumstances. He's a Hammer and loves the club. Get off his back and leave him alone.

I've backed him, as I always have done.

I think he's done well in the situation we have been in, plus last year for me wasn't so bad, as i've explained in other threads I was finally happy with the back 4 (although 2 have gone, 1 has turned mega ****), plus we've had some decent wins at home to Liverpool, Man U etc. My opinion is that we need to build on last year, and Curbs is the man to do it for me. If he was to go, and somebody else was to come in, imo we'd be back to square one.

I'm definitely backing him because he seems to be taking a massive amount of really very damaging and hurtful, spiteful abuse on the chin from the media, who are in turn trying to do their best to unsettle everything to do with west ham united. I think it really is time we were united in backing the manager, players or club. I dont believe he wants to leave and i dont believe that either the Board or the majority of fans want to get rid of him either. :crest:

Back him. Whilst not always playing the most exciting football (although, to be fair, a lot of his buys have had extensive time out injured...), he's done well. Remarkably well, in fact. In each of his three seasons so far: keeping us up, finishing in the top half with an obscenely depleted team, and our best start for X years. Also, it's nice to have someone inside the club at the moment who you know has the best interests of WHU at heart (particularly as the interests of the Icelanders has been called into question over the past few weeks/months). & I suppose it's an English thing to back the underdog - which Curbishley very much is at the moment. No wonder he has no time for the media.
