Was expecting this to be about petrol panic buying with the protests today. Hope people realise panic buying causes panic buying and stupid queues.
It was a ham-fisted attempt at irony. I think I understand the point Hill was trying to make, but he must be the first manager we've had who has tried to portray losing one of our better players to a club in the same division as indicating some sort of success. Not many supporters have tended to see things that way over the years, but I guess that as we are now living in the 'new reality' we should simply applaud the fact that West Ham's loss is our gain (financially speaking of course).
