The West Ham board are facing difficult times. Both from their own fans, and the heads of other clubs.

In a further example of who the Gold & Sullivan partnership might not be the best thing for the club the Sporting Lisbon director Bruno de Carvalho has branded the two West Ham chairmen as the “Dildo Brothers”. This was after Sullivan threatened legal action over the pursuit/non-pursuit of William Carvalho.

Everyone who knows anything about the Hammers is already privy to the information that the two owners made the majority of their fortune in adult entertainment.  That is not entirely what Sporting Lisbon’s technical director Mr. Carvalho was talking about though in his comment.

Costly Mistakes

Apparently most of the reason why the club’s best summer target, William Carvalho, didn’t end up in East London this summer is because of bumbling on the behalf of Sullivan and Gold. Or as technical director Mr. Carvalho more amusingly put it, the “Dildo Brothers”.

On multiple occasions in recent memory the two David’s at the head of the table for West Ham have proven the need for themselves to step down as lead transfer negotiators.  The two of them failed to agree targets with Bilic this summer, they made the Iheanacho fumble and now apparently cost the club William Carvalho, an immediate upgrade and boost for the entire squad.

The truth is David and David appear more and more out of their depth at every corner.  There was a time when they ran Birmingham City into the ground.  It appears that after a few years of decent ownership it’s gone to their heads in East London as well.  The fact that they are starting legal proceedings against Sporting Lisbon is absurd.

Next: Holland should start against Huddersfield

This case is very simple.  Whatever the reasons are David and David have mucked up yet again another chance for West Ham to sign a player of genuine quality who would improve the team immeasurably. They can do whatever they want in court and pay lawyers to get a certain amount of their pride back but in the end all they’ll end up doing is hurting the club more. Instead of engaging in ‘he said she said’ they should be improving West Ham.  The fact that they are choosing to even take part in this mud slinging shows exactly why they are not the men to run this great football club.
