Why only 40k at the game. 5k of which were Hammers. The pricing seemed pretty reasonable.
Because people didn't want to risk missing out on Christmas catching covid. The new strain seems ridiculously easy to get and while evidence so far suggests it's not as bad, you still have to isolate. Lots of people missed Christmas last year due to lockdowns so people don't want to be missing two in a row.

Yes I am aware of all that but didn’t seem to affect Newcastle at the wkend and Arsenal and Liverpool..

Arsenal Vs Sunderland?

There were plenty of empty seats, they just announced tickets sold not how many turned up.
Of course they get a number of Cup games in with their season tickets so they would count as sold.
WHL looked pretty full on tv . Presume lot of empty seats in upper tiers.

You do realise West Ham have been in top 4 contention for about 18months now, and those "second string players" comfortably won their euorpa league group and beat City and United in previous rounds?
Also 1 win in 7. The whole top 4 contention thing was massively overblown.

Didn't know where to vent... But had to get this off my chest.

First off I'm not at all condoning animal cruelty.

Kurt Zouma had been fined heavily by his club £250,000 pound sterling had his cat taken away. Abused on the terraces by fans some racial thrown in for good messure. Fined £9,000 by the court and given 180 hours community service with a 5 year ban on having another cat.

That's 5 separate punishments.

Some things don't add up.

It's four punishments and it's all pretty easy to understand no?

He brought his club into disrepute. He got fined by them and rightly so - they had to look like they gave a shit and not playing him obviously wasn't ever an option for them.

The other three punishments come all by way of the courts. Pretty standard.

Not too sure where you’re going with this…

Are you trying to argue that the courts shouldn’t charge him because his club has fined him and he’s had a few fans sings songs about him :cautious:

I really don't won't the scale bad behaviour, stupidity, cruelty, a few sing songs or crime...but the punishment fitting the crime in this case seems off.

Thats all I'm saying off my chest vent over.

you could just try venting by battering a pet cat? See how that works out for you.

The millionaire footballer with many eyes on him, young ones at that. Seems about right to me. For drop kicking a kitten across a kitchen

Amber Heard was just fined 15 million for making up a bunch nasty shit and publishing it in a paper

what is the proper punishment from the courts?

What is the proper punishment from the team?

Should opposing fans be celebrating him?

This is elite level thread necromancy. Kudos.

Hasn’t Zouma also been charged by French authorities?

Ok fair enough, maybe the punishment isn't right...

they should've given him a lifetime ban from having any pets and some more community service ?

Necromancy?? Never thought of this to be witch craft.

Apparently any French citizen prosecuted a broad can still face charges in France. They are looking for him to receive the maximum 4 year jail sentence because there was a child witnessing the cruelty.

Has he been charged? I know there were stories when it happened that he might be, I haven’t seen anything to say he has though
