Dreading this now. We're done, we all know it deep down.

They look like they will have far too much energy for us.

Just can't see anything other than a Forest win. I've just seen the prick's interview on BBC, 'we need to score more goals and stop conceding' fucking hell, no shit Sherlock! More goals from a woefully out of form Antonio, playing on his own with Scamacca and Ings on the bench. He gets such an easy ride from the interviewers, maybe they're scared off him from when the prick threatened to slap that female reporter when he managed Sunderland.

Surely he will go if we lose to Forest but I thought he would go when we lost to Brentford!

If he plays one up front again at home against forest then he might as well march on the pitch before kick off and bare his arse at us all with a freshly inked millwall tattoo on his saggy grey cheek. But sullivan still wouldn't sack him.......

“We’re done, we all know it deep down”


I know it and I don’t have to dig too deep.

On paper we might look like we are too good for the drop but when u watch us play you can not only see us going down but we will end up at the very bottom of the table.
We can’t even get a shot on target ffs!

What happened to our threat from set pieces and corners?

Is it really that bad going down anyway…. Cheaper tickets, some good away days Inc Millwall, a chance at another Wembley playoff final…….. Some good days out for those that go to the games. Plus hopefully We end up with a new manager.

Perhaps they won’t leave it to one window next time to replace so many starters, some forward planning with contracts and new signings instead of leaving it all last minute.


The club is a shambles. Although going down might mean Sullivan sticks around a bit longer. So there is that.

Nuts - But surely that forecast is based on Moyes staying to the end, or thereabouts? I'm pretty sure we would improve once he has gone, as we know we have some good players.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

This could be one of the biggest games of our season. A crucial 3 points that could keep us up. So why on earth would the owners want Moyes around for this game. He is clearly one of the main reasons why we aren't winning, so get rid.

The players don't like him. He hasn't got a clue how to set us up to win. So why the fuck is he still around?

Get him out. Put Noble and Warburton in charge with Nevin advising. Just get a better feel about the place. The Jock is a fucking toxic cloud. The players nor the support want him here so fuck him off and give the team the best chance of winning this game.

if they sack Moyes and we lose then so what? We'll lose if Moyes is still in charge anyway. Just give everyone a break from the boggle eyed ghost.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

Is this any bigger than the Everton game?

They're all big games now. The ones against top 6 opposition, we obviously write off as Moyes (like BFS) does not put any effort into these games as, they are bonus games!

So, Forest, Brighton, Villa, Soton, Fulham and Bournemouth are really must wins! Or at least don't lose to them.

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

Areola

Coufal
Zouma (If fit)
Aguerd
Emerson

Downes
Rice
Soucek/fornals

Bowen
Scamacca
Antonio

Get the front 3 high up the pitch and fucking go for it.

Manuel 2:07 Mon Feb 20
Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

I wouldn't compare this too much to the Everton game they were on their last legs under fatty and we played them just at the right time, Forest however are on an unbeaten run of around six games, growing in confidence and united.

Can we beat them, of course we can, but the only prediction I'll make is it will be a very tough game.

El Scorchio 2:27 Mon Feb 20
Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

This couldn't be more must win.

Someone needs to tell the manager it's that rather than 'must draw 0-0'

The intent we show will go a long way to how this game is going to turn out. It's bad enough to play scared against Chelsea and spurs, but if we cower in our own half against Nottingham fucking Forest with 10 behind the ball giving them all the possession, then that's tragic, and the writing is on the wall for how this one is going to go.

I just want to see some fight like the spurs game in 2007. Make no mistake we are in almost as bad a position as we were then. Even though we lost, there was fight in the dog.

If we are behind at half time or probably even go 1-0 down at any point with a pathetic display like the past few months, then the crowd will turn. Lose and there's no option but to sack him. Surely.

Hasn't a lot of this shit coincided with Warburton turning up at the club?

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

Biggest game of our season so far and by no means confident of a result in what would traditionally be a home banker.

Will be interesting as Moyes will be forced to go all out for a win because Lose or draw this and we are pretty much done for. I hope the players actually see it this way and rebel and ignore any instruction do go defensive and play for themselves and the supporters who need something to cheer. If they won’t sack him just ignore him.

Obviously a must win game, the 6 pointer. We win we are 2 points behind them, they win they are 8 points in front and over the hills and far, far away!

Moyes last game. Make sure to cheer him off.

Whatever the formation Areola / Fornals / Ings and Scamacca all have to start

Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

I agree with Colyrob's team, but hopefully with Paqueta back for Soucek/Fornals.

I have never called for Fabianski to be dropped but the way he played statues for both Spurs goals was just unacceptable.

Antonio MUST revert to being a winger, surely. He is one of the main reasons why our possession stats are so poor - against any half decent centre back he loses most duels, and on the occasions when he does get to the ball first it mostly just bounces off him to the opposition. Put him up against a fullback in a bit more space and he is a different proposition. Quite apart from this, we have two fully fit proper strikers now, ffs!

Sir Alf 3:32 Mon Feb 20
Re: ⚽ West Ham v Notts Forest - Official Match Thread -- Preview

Spurs pressed us higher than they normally do against teams I think? They know we sit deep. And we could not beat their press at all. Because we don’t really try to that often or are forced into this hoof it clear routine. The times Fabianski, Coufal, Ogbonna just lumped it forward in hope I lost count of. That’s coached.

But to play out and beat the press you need to move and be prepared to take risks. Because we lack pace aside from Aguerd at the back we don’t take risks.

But itsMoyes that built the squad and didn’t see the need for mobility and pace and still doesn’t which is why he went for Ings up front too.
