Spammers statement is hilarious, saying they're more than paying their way, GTFO, you're paying pittance compared to what we the taxpayers are shelling out.

Surely Dan Roan and the BBC are running a terrible risk of being tried for Treason, and winding up in the Tower. I recall Karen Brady telling us that in occupying the Olympic Stadium the Spammers were acting directly on behalf of our own dear Queen.

I fear for them.

Public enquiry, Office of Fair TradeEuropean commision et al should be looking into this! I reckon it was all agreed at a Tory fund raising Garden party with the Porn Twins, the wicked witch, Boris and Dave?

Taken from a post on Skyscraper City Forum. Is there really going to be a huge space between the lower retractable tier and upper tier seats?

Christ that looks shit :D Apparently that gaps gets closed up on only one side. Behind the goals the gaps will be even bigger. 20m from the front row to the touchline at the halfway line. :D

(thanks to sideways on SIMB)

to be fair, they could drive all the burger vans out on the track at half time...... And perhaps a coconut shy and duck shoot stall.

Nice touch from West Ham letting some of their fans move their portable homes to the pitch while they're rebuilding.

What's the story behind the linking of West Ham to gypsies?

It's "banter" that doesn't sit well with me at the Lane and some of the songs rather undermine our protestations at their racism towards Spurs fans.

Fuck me that really is going to be dreadful to watch football in. I almost feel sorry for the pikeys. Almost.

It's not gypsy in an ethnic sense, it's just basically calling them poor and lower class. I'm not saying it's acceptable, but it's not racism.

I have also seen West Ham supporters often referred to on here as 'Spammers'.

Do our Politically Correct brethren feel that that might be offensive to people who flood the Internet with emails advertising knob enlargement methods?

I mean, I wouldn't want to offend anyone. :oops:

My brother is a Spammer, I like to think of him as lower class, I would tell him but he wouldn't hear me on account of him always singing about winning the World Cup.

Well we could always just call them "Irons" like my grandad did.

Loved his rhyming slang did my old Gramps.
