Sullivan is basically the reason she is where she is, her whole career has basically been on the back of him only wanting her to handle his 'business'.
Yes, I think he told some ad firm he's throw a few million at them but only if this teenager, a friend's child, was given control of the account. It's not what you know...

Yep. The fact she was blowing his trumpet probably contributed too! Her old man must be a strange cookie. He must have known what Sullivan was like, a proper odious little man who had spent time in prison for living off 'immoral earnings' ( which translates to being a pimp ) yet he was more than happy for him to take his much younger daughter under 'his wing'

It's funny that the stories surrounding Sullivan have never been brought up when things like 'entrusting the Olympic legacy in "his" name' have been mentioned! ( usually by Brady ) You barely have to scratch the surface to see what kind of man he is ( ex-pimp, "loaning" money to one of Britans biggest gangsters David Hunt which was a recent occurrence )
It really wouldn't take much to throw a lot of scandalous, negative press his way. They way they pursued the Olympic stadium, about them being fit and proper people to take on the legacy in the queens name etc was cringeworthy.

Guess making nice big donations to the Tories and having a lot of friends in the print help.

Yes tbh. As a father of two daughters, this stands out. Then again, his daughter has had a belter of a career out of it I guess. I mean, obviously she is a world class business person as any highly-tuned-to-the-world-of-high-finance-and-marketing ex-pimp could see in a 19 year old woman. God forbid we incur the wrath of any progressives around by suggesting anything else was going on. :whistle:

West Ham have been good but they've not reached that point where teams start parking the bus and hoping for a point against them. That's when they'll realise how far away they truly are from being good enough to mount a challenge. If they somehow get to that point, they'll then have to deal with bigger teams coming in and picking up their best players. The game is rigged, they've done well in the first 10 matches but their fans have a lot to learn and we know that better than anyone.

But surely their amazing new stadium will make Kouyate and Carroll want to stay there instead of moving to Man United or Real Madrid?

Spammer fans need to wake up, if they are still up there at the end of January, then they have a chance. But the fact is, they are not a sleeping giant and they have very little history, it's hard to tell how the stadium will turn out, but it looks like anyone sitting in the upper tiers are going to need a telescope to see the game, they need to advertise now to fill the bowlyn so they'll have to give tickets away to fill the new place.

They seem to think all over teams are just going to stand still, but Liverpool, chavs and ourselves are building or improving stadiums. And what do they think will happen when the likes of real, Barcelona and other giants of Europe start calling for their players.

I would put spammer fans up there with Liverpool as the most deluded.

Absolutely no doubt about the delusion of Liverpool fans, but I suspect that is largely fuelled by their history. With West Ham they have literally nothing to base this deluded confidence on, it's bourne out of a promising start to a season which creates new levels of ridicule.

I think Brady and the porn guys have done an excellent job selling the stadium and convincing the fans that they are on the cusp of greatness

Maybe I'm being dim but what players have West Ham got that the big boys of Europe will be looking to pinch?

If you tell a bunch of neanderthals something enough times they'll eventually believe you.

But they've also created a rod for their own backs.

Give it a season or two of mid table mediocrity in their 2nd hand stadium and the knuckle dragging natives will soon be calling for the porn barons heads.
