The bench looks better. Still not great.

[Elpojohn]

1-2 to the Happy Hammers.  Summerville brace.

Not sure Scarles deserved to lose his place

[smartypants]

I didn’t sadly. I even predicted Wilson to shush the West Ham end

[El Scorchio]

I predicted 2-1 v spurs and wilson to come on and score the winner with 2 mins to go, I also predicted 3-1 v Sunderland and us to be 3-0 up.. I reckon we might nick this with a backs against the wall 1-0

 

 

I'd pop 50 quid on it then if I were you. I expect you wish you had done on the last results if that's the case

The only thing that worries me about us getting at least a point is VAR and the ref

Have you forgotten that we're absolutely dogshit? 

 

 

I am ever the optimist this season because at last we have a manager who plays the up-and-coming West Ham under-21s and players like Fernandes and Diouf. We have the bones of a very good side if we stay up

[David LE]

We need a Masuaku type special goal to win this....

[honky cat]

I hate to say this as I was a big fan of Leeeeroy

But his boy is gonna get his ass handed to him by EL PACO and west ham chaos ball. He's finished 

[RootsRadical]

The gods owe us after the cornet debacle a few years ago

 

 

Pretty sure there's been one or two other dodgy decisions for them against us since the Cornet one.
Also the penalty they got at Stamford Bridge that was clearly half a metre outside the box, at the end of season under Billic when we were going for top 4.
Still pisses me off that one.

[Figgieham1]

Summerville hat trick.

[Figgieham1]

I hope your mystic manuel comes to fruition have you got the  lottery numbers?

[Vexed]

Playing them at the worst possible time
They have the new manager bounce and will be feeling very confident after recent results and will be trying to put in good performances to impress the new manager and keep their place.
As others have said, we will probably give it a good go but whatever we do won't be enough, and even if it is the ref & VAR will find a way to fuck us over as normally happens against these cunts.

They had a livy midweek away fixture against good opposition, I'd argue there are worse times to be playing them. Even so they have such a big squad they should cope easy enough.

[Massive Attack]

Fuck I hate Chelsea. Come on West Ham and go in to turbo nutter mode today win, lose or draw.

Would take a point all day long but realistically we're getting beat comfortably. 

[El Scorchio]

Draw or improbable win. 

[Sir Alf]

Seeing as we only have a squad of what 15 senior players plus a few U21s, it seems odds on that we incur an injury to one of the players we have little or bo cover for and who’s absence will eeal our fate.  Bowen, Todibo, Mavrapanos, Fernandes or Summerville.

Did I also read Antony Taylor was ref?  Fvck me the odds are stacked against us. Him and the Stockley Park clown show sure to fvck us over. I mean we’ve had a coupke of wins and that wont do.   

[southbankbornnbred]

Let’s fucking have these cunts, West Ham!






Thats all I’m saying. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

[smartypants]

I think the same.
We will put up a good fight but they will probably end up cruely nicking it.
The best we can hope for this weekend is that both forest and Leeds get well beat. 

[Dick Shaftsbury]

I think its going to be one of those games where we play really well but get beat.
