Looking forward to reading Vinny's report to see what he made of Gary O'Neil.
A couple of weeks ago he called him 'a nothing player'. I reckon in a couple of weeks he'll be saying something like 'O'Neil has to start every game until the end of the season as he's our best player'. And he'll think that people don't notice how often he changes his mind about players based on 2 or 3 performances.

Just watched the highlights... didn't realise how good Nolan's flick was that hit the bar. Would have been goal of the season!

There's a few posters who were keen to dish out the criticism when it was 0-0, but then it looks like they completely refused to post anything after we scored the first goal.
Bizarre.

I thought Gary O'Neil had a cracking game in the middle, much more effective than Lansbury or Collision.

Excellent summary.
And not even the merest hint of a one-paced midfield;-)

Being the massive fan that I am I left (my radio commentary) to go to the cinema at half time. Great to come back to a win and by the sounds of it a much improved second half.

Cracking second half performance and the support all game was top drawer. Difference terracing makes is enormous, though my old legs are fucked now. Not worth a Wank if we don't put in a similar performance on Saturday though.

Correct!
And it wasn't just aimless possession either - we were getting down both flanks and getting forward and back in numbers to make it work.
Defo saw the difference with Vaz and Julien on - a bit of pace is good to watch and tires the opposition too.
Still a good few wasted balls into the crowd / out of play from great positions, with O'Neill, Joey and Julien being the main culprits - if you are paid to play football for a living there is no excuse for so many misplaced crosses imo, BUT all in all it was a damn good night out for Hammers fans.
And our support was fucking brilliant as ever.

just got in, very decent 2nd half....funny ole thing confidence....once that 2nd went in we looked head and shoulders above posh they couldnt get near.
shame we never went on to get a couple more
well done gary oneil....I wasn't too chuffed when i see he was starting but i enjoyed my humble pie he had a good game
as for the cock trying to throw the pastie at taylor when he fucked up the corner...shame on you, good job it hit the streward instead

110% correct Sir Alf 10:14 Tue Mar 27
It is what it is mores the pity, but even if we do go up...what would be the point of binning Fat Sam on yet another maybe, consolidate…then build.
Its such a simple fucking game really…pity many fuck it up so much, Fat Sam included.
Thanks for the small insight jacksopa, and well done on taking the trip mate.

So I missed the game and just got home, I hear we passed on the floor. So seeing as we had 18 attempts on goal vs regularly getting only 8 a game does this now show the hoof and hope football doesn't work?
I see Cole still didn't get a goal, but did he play well and deserve his regular place?
