One of the best ever interviews on Hammers Chat, insightful, funny, brutal, honest. Thank you fellas
Thank you Robin, much appreciated
Loved this chat with Chris -so honest and from the heart . I can identify with so much of what he says . I would go back to going to games if the football was exciting and more entertaining .COYI
Bloody hell, even Akabussi has been Moyesed ...
Akabussi is absolutely right I remember them days and it was like that I was never pissed off
If Chris is down in the dumps watching West Ham then its got to be bad!. He's one of life's ultimate glass half full characters so if he's depressed about the team then we have problems.
Do not leave it so long for Aka to return to your videos. Honesty and Passion only enhances the program.
P155 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I could listen to Akabusi all day. He has managed to encapsulate what so many of us are feeling. He is known as "Mr Positive", yet he has had enough. Fair play. Honest, insightful snd brilliant. Great work Gents.
Kriss brightens my day, what a lovely guy. He’s the same age as me so we’ve watched West Ham in unison. I agree with everything he said especially about Phillips. His knowledge of the career path of athletes was fascinating. I love his passion. Thank you. I really needed this lift this morning.
Thank you Joan, hope you are okay though, you know where we are if need anything, just drop us a message
Love Chis ❤he’s laugh is infectious ⚒
Kriss is spot on. The joy of following West Ham has been squeezed out of a lot of fans. Crap manager and crap owners!
Love Akabussi. Proper geezer 🏴🇬🇧⚒️
When someone like kris loses his enthusiasm the club need to take notice
They don’t need to do anything while we’re competing at the right end of the table and are getting 60,000 bums on seats.
Just mad, said all same as chris last week leaving after villa,can't explain but after 40 years just don't get the buzz anymore but can't explain why sadly but it is agg just trying to get there great chat thou lads
As a 65 year old, 60 years a Hammer (school colours were claret and blue), like Chris have seen the decades of West Ham teams. If any of the the club owners had ever taken the fan base seriously (estimated 1 million Hammer fans in UK alone) there would have been some incredible years. There is not a WHUFC fan on the board now, not from the heart, Gold was before departing. Kris's passion, clarity in emotional expression, respectful too (Mr Moyes etc) was great to listen to. Thank you all for the 41.58 mins of entertainment and a reality check.
Yet again a superb chat with Akabussi, I remember that first time when there was hardly any of us on here. His love for us is everything, I think we all feel like him at the moment about how we're doing
Chris Akabussi is Moyes OUT ... I love him even more 🥰🥰🥰
VAR can’t help, play acting, no contact football. The product in general is tedious. Look at the England game last night. What a waste of time for anybody who attended that. But how can any sporting event ever beat Aka on the line against a stumbling Pettigrew. One of the most joyous sporting moments of my life.
Always an absolute joy to listen to Kriss A. speak on West Ham and sport in general - thanks once again HC for getting him on again.
Chris just made me realise how I feel 👌🏻 I moved to Australia at the end of 06 and have become an armchair fan sadly but the passion never leaves me ⚒️
He's spot on... Can hardly be bothered to turn the tv on to watch games these days.
I love Kris; we started following the Irons at the same time. All media outlets take note. It's not the stadium. Yesterday, Saturday, 23/03/24, I watched Spain vs. Columbia. The atmosphere was cracking. What Kris has highlighted is that serving 2 banks of 4 with attackers defending for 65-70 minutes for three years plus has worn a lot of us out. The ending was absolutely brilliant, guys!
Kriss is absolutely magical to listen too ⚒
Over the past couple of years many, with greater diction than I. have commented in their own particular way about Moyes, the club, style of play, the stadium , Sullivan etc.
But, non quite as eloquently as Kriss.
D. O. N. E.
I think we have been, well and truly
Worth watching for the Phillips analysis alone, articulated what, sadly, we all been thinking. Great chat.
Personally I think Antonio is a far better enabler than he is a goal scorer. In 10 seasons he has never scored more than 10 league goals for us. BUT, he gives us an out ball when we're backs to the wall, holds the ball up superbly and gives others time to get forward. I do wish he wouldn't throw himself to the ground so often and we're going to have to ween ourselves (Moyes) onto a different way of playing due to his age. I'm with Kris on our playing style.
Genuinely, that was one of the best Akabusi interviews I’ve heard. His input on Phillips is so enlightening and coming from him I fully believe it. Well done boys. Great job.
Great interview! This has to be Moyes greatest achievement, he has managed to bore and unenthuse the worlds most enthusiastic man, that is some going.
Just to add on the West Ham havent always been great point , this is very true but it was never by design. We have been poor through lack of investment and just not having good players but this is different. We have great players but the manager is deliberately stopping them playing great football, that’s what I find unforgivable.
Kriss Ackabussi what fantastic value this man is .
So much enthusiasm and love for our club .
Can you feature him every so often, just love to hear him speak
Excellent interview and Chis is saying all what fans are thinking 🤛🇬🇧⚒⚒⚒ Sullivan & Moyes needs to listen to this interview.
If you look at the teams that play high-intensity or all-out attacking football, like Leeds under Bielsa, Liverpool, Brighton, Newcastle etc, they've all suffered massive injury crises. Liverpool has a squad that can handle it, but the others couldn't/can't, and West Ham definitely couldn't. However, Moyes could certainly manage games better and balance the sitting back with the attacking, and bring players off earlier when they're knackered. But the players who aren't first-choice are atrophying both physically and mentally, so the first-choice players end up playing 90 after 90.
Excellent interview with the always brilliant Kris Akubusi.
Met Kris a few years back at Upton Park in a hospitality suite.
He was great value then, too!
Proper Hammer and like him, I am now also an armchair fan for similar reasons.
Absolute legend, Kris Akabussi spot on and great insight ⚒
Kriss you summed up our feelings completely. When the Media say what’s your problem hammers fans with Moyes . Listen to this video and you Sullivan .
Fantastic show guys it flew by! I'm of a similar vintage to Mr Akabussi and feel very much the same about West Ham. WHTID, COYI.
A brilliant watch well done all.😊
Kriss - you need to park at Hackney Wick quick walk to the stadium, straight through security checks and no stop and go on the way out.
He thinks about West Ham exactly the same as I do, no enjoyment and no desire to go, it makes a change from other people who spout David Moyes propaganda constantly, thanks for you're honesty Kris
I will advise my son and grandsons(all footballers at pro level) to watch this video. Great advice, insight and knowledge share by Chris. Thanks COYI
Anyone we recognise, out of interest?
What a brilliant interview boys, kudos, funny, insightful as well as a little bit sad, I say that because it sums up a lot of what of us old boys are now feeling, and Kris should you read this was it Trevor Sinclair you were thinking of bud?
Also boys, I just thought, obviously we know the board don't really care or are too interested in us lot however it must have reverberated through the corridors of power a little when someone of Kris's calibre doesn't renew.
A great interview & from someone who hit the nail on the head about West Ham.
Simply Brilliant ⚒
Absolutely fantastic show, guys. Totally lifted my Hammers spirit. The HC/Akabussi combo is the perfect solution to these PL free times. Some excellent points made with passion, humour, and a madcap laugh, Kris is dope. COYI ⚒⚽⚒
👏👏👏👏 superb interview fella's, laughed all the way through. Chris is a national treasure.
Chris, love your honesty mate.
What a great guy Akabussi is. Like Kriss I haven’t been since lockdown after going for 40 years so know exactly how he feels-still love the club though.
Well said Kris 👏🏻 I’d like to hear more celebrities speaking like this, the truth ⚒COYI
What a legend , my favourite interview I’ve seen on this channel
Brilliant interview well done chaps
Thanks for your honesty Kriss, although I'd expect nothing less. Sadly you are echoing what many West Ham fans feel. I admire those who keep at it week after week, I used to be one of them but not anymore.
Thanks lads! Totally true what Akabussi's saying...wake up Westham + get rid of this dinosaur in charge!
Brilliant!! Best one you've done. And Kriss nailed it about the feeling about the hammers...
respect for Akabussi - makes great points and speaks for thousands of Hammers - well done Sir
Never a dull moment listening to KA . Great interview
Superb video! Thanks Kris, Geo and Gonzo for making my Sunday!
Come on Akabussi , don't lose heart . Hate to see you feeling like that . I,'ve been supporting the mighty hammers since 1969 just like you and also inspired by the great Clyde Best so completely understand you but we need to get behind the team we have .
I'm a regular follower of your videos and this one is exceptional
I've been supporting West Ham since the early 60's
I used to never miss our home matches at the Boleyn and went to many of our away matches
I moved up North in the mid 70's but still travelled down to watch home games from time to time (a 550.mile round trip) and went to many of our away matches in Lancashire and the North East
Unfortunately I've become an armchair fan now and find that all the excitement and joy has been sucked out of the game by uninspiring negative football and VAR looking for every possible reason to disallow goals
I fully agree with what Kris said and he summed up my feelings in a nutshell
Thanks Geo and Gonzo. A great interview and very enjoyable listen. His observations on Phillips are spot on. Cheers from down under.🍻⚒⚒
What a great video this is, exactly how I feel every topic touched on. I still go most games but it’s no longer the high point of my week, the most expensive point though
Great chat lads really enjoyed it. Keep up the great work.
Brilliant chat Gonzo, Geo and Kriss. Love it when experienced pros give their perspective and I think Kriss is sadly going to be proved absolutely correct on Phillips. I’m not confident that he’ll come again and even if he does it won’t be the 23 year old version unfortunately.
That was one of my favourite ones lads, think what Kriss said was how a lot of us feel. Loved the banter too with Kriss says he wants moyes to have another contract 😂
Kris, just said everything that i would of said about my supporting west ham re stadium, and match experience. I feel exactly the same. Fantastic interview, especially his opinion on Phillips and professional athletes
Yeah if we were still at Up I would, because it was the buzz around the ground as much as in the ground. My favourite times was in the north bank.
Fantastic kris well said moyes Style is pants ⚒️⚒️
The insight into Kelvin Phillips from a former world class athlete was a superb watch and sadly I think very accurate
Nobody has ever articulated how I feel about my club right NOW than how Kris has here. An absolute masterclass on the situation right now over there. Sky sports, Talksport, mainstream media all you so called pundits out there should watch this to understand our feelings on Moyes, Sullivan and the regime right now.
As a side note I've not been over there since covid either like Kris. It's not Upton Park and it's not West Ham anymore to me and many others.
100% Chris….i done more than 40 yrs as a regular at the Boleyn…the move broke my heart…the football drains my soul. Born and bred in Stratford and ain’t been to the fish bowl once and don’t see it happening, at least till there’s been a redevelopment in the spectating conditions and a style of football worth spending on the day over a oner on all in all. Can’t afford to take the kids or grandkids anyway. Football was for the low paid , hard working community…not no more. If anything football kicked me and many like out the game and out the grounds.🛋️⚒
Best show in a long time . Swell done lads ⚒️🏴
Brilliant! Love Kriss (and the other one! 😉) and the other one too! 😂 - such a laugh! 👏🏻⚒️
A great interview with a telling insight into the pitfalls of being an athlete.
Kriss has hit the nail on the head with peoples feeling towards the team and more so the stadium
His points resonate with me so much. Great video guys
Great show lads. Love Akubusi.
Nice smile inducing chat while I do the washing up
That is exactly my story. I still love West Ham. It's probably the most honest interview on this channel ever.
Big respect to Kris for these words 👏
Really interesting conversation
And I'm not even a hammer
I always find this the biggest compliment for some reason, thank you
What a great video guys really enjoyed the 40 odd minutes. Love Chris’s attitude to life & I think he sums up quite a few of us with his reasoning
Fantastic interview, insightful and passionate as ever from Kriss , analysis of KP absolutely on the money for me and articulated as only Kriss can. - brilliant watch 👏🏼👏🏼⚒️
Come and join us Kris. Luton to West Hampstead onto Hackney Wick short walk to the ground (no stop/go bollocks) It won't change some of the mind numbing football but you'll get in and out and home quicker 😉
I agree with so much of what Chris has said and I share a lot of the same thoughts. I suspect there are many others who feel the same way.
We need a weekly Akabussi show 😅
Great honest interview and great craic towards the end.
I've been going to west ham since the sixties , has he forgotten how it was getting in and out of Upton Pk, fucking nightmare, coming in from Essex now is easy , i can remember singing for John Lyall out because the football was shit, Moyes has given me three of the best years i can remember
Great interview, some of it didn’t agree with, but the whole why gave up ticket and the reasoning for not going anymore can agree with, and with a 6 year old in tow every home game can relate with the food chat as well.
Kris akubusi putting hurdles in the way of going to games lol how ironic !! Great video lads ,brilliant value and insight. Kris A saying what most of us feel about attending
Absolutely love this ❤⚒️
Excellent stuff - thank you ⚒️
Watch out kriss you'll have jeff stelling and all the moyes mafia on your case next week mate!
Wow great interview loved it,fantastic credit to you all ⚒⚒coyi.
⭐⭐😎⭐⭐ Fantastic Discussion here with an Absolute Legend 💯
Brilliant, thanks lads. Top man Kriss 👊⚒
I really get where Chris is coming from. We are a similar age and I go back to watching West Ham for the last 45/50 years. I was born in sight of the Boleyn. It's not so much the football for me (although I'd like it to be more entertaining) for me it's the match day experience.
I've been a season ticket holder for many years. My journey now I've moved house, is a 5/6 hour round trip every game from the Suffolk coast. I'm even contemplating not going to the Spurs game. Unheard of ! With a ridiculous kick off time of 815, I won't get home much before 1am if not later and to be honest I don't know if I can be bothered when I can watch it on a stream. Sorry but that's how it is at the moment
Fantastic 👌loved listening to every minute ⚒️⚒️
Hmm.. I think it cant be underestimated, how the development of modern football the past 10 years also has a say in peoples opinions of their clubs. So many things going the wrong way, one could easily write an essay about it. Its not always about managers, tactics or specific players.
I mean, back in the day, if you said to your mate, Im not watching the rest of the season with you because I dont like our playing style, he would think u were coming down with something. Supporting a club has changed. Dramatically.
Akabussi is class . I’m exactly the same 30 year’s season ticket. No more
Great video, and good luck with the swimming progression Gonzo
Great interview. Loved the Bishop one as well. Keep up the good work!
What a legend. Love Kris.
How did this video (at the time of writing) get 10 down votes? Surely misclicks. Loved it. Perfect.
Refreshed and now only 8 downvotes. Improvement already.
Kriss is just fantastic to listen to. If i wasn't a West Ham supporter I would listen to him talk about the weather.
Akabussi spot on about living the moments
I don't think there's anyone on planet earth that can match Kriss's energy. Love it. Seems Kriss's thoughts are a familiar theme with a lot of fans. I think a big part of why it's different now is we have much better players than we used to have and don't see us try and play to our potential enough.
Then you have the small minority that only care if we're doing well in the top end of the table and don't care how bad the football is. It's just about results for them.
Couldnt agree more on the Kalvin Phillips. I never understood the move. He's damaged goods.
