well I think it is very sad that so many on here see fit to slag this new group off.Perhaps it is you that have a hidden agenda? There are so many things wrong at the moment at the club and no existing group is getting anywhere challenging them.I am very happy to represent Hammers United and talk to you on your TV blog or whatever it is you call it.The invitation is there.

he's pulling no strings. Funny thing is we really want to help, to get things changed and improved for all fans..the things you say are just a guy behind a keyboard mouthing off. We don't need you.
He makes some good points, Phil. Secret committees and dodgy IT support are not the way to go.
Words like transparent, democratic, inclusive are what you should be aiming for.
And I'm not sure fucking people off for raising genuine concerns will get you too far either.
Anyway, you be sure to keep us updated on what you improve and change.
fucking people off? how?
He's being for a better word, nasty.
Yes we're a new group and we're not lawyers etc..we're West Ham United fans
There's several people on here and know me and I'm nothing like this guy is making out.
Good points can be made politely..he's doing nothing of the sort..we're 5 days into this new group..give us a chance.
Anyway, I'm on holiday in Aus so I'll leave it here for other members to comment.
I'm nothing to do with RWHFAG btw
Wasn’t going to say much (bar wishing them luck earlier) but I need to for this one.
I know Nik personally and have done for a few years now, see him at every home game too. He is a lovely person and does loads of community work with people of all ages, from all backgrounds.
His posts were naive but that’s it, in my opinion. He used stereotypes that he found humorous and I’d imagine a lot use in private between friends, as a joke.
I spoke very briefly to him at the weekend and he told me he set the page up, he has another couple of groups on Facebook so he will know how it all works, I know it’s probably simple but I wouldn’t have a clue as am not familiar with the platform, and that’s all. He told me one person that’s behind it (I didn’t ask et ) and he is someone that all West Ham fans know and on here, is respected. It’s not my place to say who it is but am sure it’ll come out when they wish it too.
Am in no way involved in the new group but don’t wish to see people make assumptions about Nik who I’ve known for a few years now.
As said, good luck to the new group and I’ll keep an eye on its progress.

This probably answers your first line. I can’t blame people for being a bit iffy over new groups for various reasons. As with every group, it’s up to you to demonstrate that you deserve to be backed and I can safely say, if you show that then majority on here would back you.
As for the ‘tv blog or whatever’ am not sure wording in a way that could be seen as a dig is the best way to go about it.
As said, look forward to your progress and your obviously welcome to post any updates etc, best of luck!
Red.That was not a dig mate,I don't do new technology.I cant even work my DVD at home .That is why Nik helped with the website etc.My people this morning said we should have a WhatsApp.I don't know what that is.Another has asked for a screen shot.I said.'Is that a John Wayne film'.-I wasn't taking the piss.I enjoy watching Gonzo et.-I would call it a video.-But is it TV or a blog -I honestly don't know.I wasn't taking the piss.We have been receiving a fair amount of abuse and are determined not get drawn into arguments.
Lawnmower man.Why are you so full of derision and bad feeling towards the new group.They have only been around 4 days,how can they have upset you so much? You ask who the Committee is.Do you not understand that in the light of last years events they might be afraid of sticking their heads above the parapet.We are all West Ham supporters .Our issues must be with the Board.-Not our fellow fans.
