Just one point of issue, Bentley is not pacy!!

Don't forget to throw a few "like" into sentences. ie: "We had at least 2 half chances in the game, like. One came off the back of Coley's head when he was falling over and the other one, a throughball from Abdy from 70 yards, just cleared the Bobby Moore stand, like. On another day, those go in."

Faye has impresssed me greatly this season. Shame he's so old.

Still, keep it positive lads otherwise Iain will tell you not to be naughty boys! And so much for that great 1-1 at leeds. Forest could only win 7-3. As I said before; You can fool some of the people some of the time....

Watch first half then off to 5-a side.

Neigh, man. It's "hoarse". PS. Some people call it negativity, others call it objective criticism or, more pertinently, realism.

Pass & move. Football really is that simple.

Funny Ol' game.

Of course, if West ham had nicked it 1-0 today (which is Allardyce's plan A - his Plan B is to nick a 0-0 draw), the same suspects would come on here informing us that we are on course for promotion etc etc. You can fool some people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Leeds were there for the taking today but BFS in his infinite wisdom decided to play a midget up front alone. Poor Maynard never had a sniff. One half chance when he was put through from a tackle. The best pass he received all game was when their keeper kicked it into his chest! All this rubbish about away win records doesn't disguise the fact that the league we are in is rubbish and the team we have would have been absolutely thrashed by Lyall's 2nd tier champions. No doubt Allardyce will spin his spin and tell the news media how unlucky we were, how we looked the likely winners, how injuries affected his line up and how we showed character to come back the way we did. No surprise that the equaliser never came from open play. Heard it all before, Sam. As I said, you can fool some of the people some of the time.....

Tomkins midfield (haha) and how Collison keeps his place is beyond me? Set up to lose. Not even going to bother listening to it why I work. 2-0 Leeds.

Thu, 15 Mar 2012 15:22:03 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/15/should-ravel-start/#IDComment316800387 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/13/playing-away/#IDComment315974083 Interesting comment from Lansbury on the OS. His favourite position is playing off the front man but he admits that you can't drop the captain, which means he has to look at another position to get into the side. For me, this reinforces what I have said on other threads. Selecting Nolan upsets the rest of the team's balance. We get away with it away from home because we can slot another midfielder in, but, at home, it doesn't work. We are easy to defend against. It also didn't go unnoticed by me that the Doncaster equaliser came from two midfield players running from deep totally unchallenged or tracked by Noble & Nolan, who were both by them when the ball broke to Douif. Basics. Basics. Basics.

Mon, 12 Mar 2012 17:51:55 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment314497260 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment314291105 It will be interesting to see how many of our players make the PFA "league" team, assuming they still do this? Mon, 12 Mar 2012 11:43:06 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment314291105 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment313693530 It doesn't matter whi you play when your Manager is so predictable as ours. The players aren't much cop, either. I grew up with proper footballers, so let's compare the team I remember in the 2nd tier to this group of underachievers. Phil Parkes Ray Stewart Alvin Martin Billy Bonds Frank Lampard Jimmy Neighbour/Pat Holland Geoff Pike Trevor Brooking Alan Devonshire Paul Goddard David Cross LMFAO xD Sun, 11 Mar 2012 17:21:14 +0000 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment313693530 http://www.westhamtillidie.com/2012/03/11/twelve-things-we-learned-from-the-doncaster-game/#IDComment313689152 Yeah, Happy birthday, Tony. Allardyce is clueless. I said the fans would stomach his brand of football whilst he was picking up points. He's a one trick pony and the opposition have worked him out. West Ham United. The most predictable team in the Championship.

We should be cruising this league, but I have come to the conclusion that football in this country has regressed ovee the last 30 years. My Brother attended this game and said I could do better than Collison & Nolan. Some feat for a 51 year old! I refuse to pay good money to watch players that wouldn't have got into my Sunday team. The game is dead. Man Utd were given a footballing lesson from a team 9th in their league. You are all being had, you fools. Stop going. Allardyce is a clown. Out of his depth. Footballers earning more in a week than you will earn in a year and they can't even do the basics. More fool you.
