as said before, i will not go to any games again while that moron is in charge. totally inept. one of the most frustrating things about the game last night was noble has to do the work of the entire central midfield despite playing in a midfield 3 and he still gets critisized. to play tomkins, our best acadamy player for years and best centre half, out of position is insulting. iain please, you are watching the club fall. PLEASE DO SOME KIND OF SURVEY OR PETITION WE CAN ALL SIGN AND SEND THE RESULTS TO THE DAVIDS.

I'm absolutely disgusted with what allardyce and nolan are doing to our club. evrytime the camera zooms in on them they are shouting abuse at the ref, opponents, team mates and yet never seem to realise they are the two useless mugs. never going to happen, but id sack him now and start playing a team more like this: green o'brien tomka faye taylor noble diop lansbury/morrison vaz te cole morrison/montenegro ( im fuming he hasnt been involved at all!) /hall/montano out with the likes of oneil, nolan, collison etc. start using the effing pace and creativity we have. like others, until that fat moron leaves i will not go to upton park, whichever league we are in

cole is a very good player, i think its unfair to blame him. his hold up play is incredible thanks to his strength. his problem is he isnt prolific. cole and baldock would be my front two, if we insist on playing 4-5-1 then for me morrison has to start playing

to echo everyone else's thoughts, a MASSIVE thank you to both Iain and David Sullivan. this is the best post (8 posts) I have ever read on this site, excellent interview, hopefully he can do this kind of interview annually, or him and Mr Gold can alternate years!

I think tomkins played well again but agree we have to use him in defense, he will be a great defender for years to come. cole is a class above in this league, if we played 4-4-2 it would help him a lot to get assists and goals, but his hold up play is outstanding. green was class, enough said. i want to see baldock used more. watching the players warm up, you can see baldock is just a great finisher, and he showed us when he had a run of games he will score. for me Cole and Baldock should be our first choice pairing, however a bit of rotation based on form would be a good thing.

Firstly, i have to say the atmosphere was incredible last night. I go about 7/8 times a season and that was the best atmosphere for a long long time. on to the game, i think we have witnessed a pathetic ref display by lee probert. he gave every little descision to them, for example cole was being penalised for being dragged to the ground when he was trying to win the ball, wereas whenever their strikers were backing in to our defenders, they got the foul. several hand balls were missed, not even just the penalties, and right at the end i cant beleive the ref and lino missed the fact the ball was about a yard out for our goal kick and they played on! shocking stuff taylor was silly getting involved, but sharpe clearly cheated as he wasnt push in the face. i havent seen a replay of the incident, at the game it looked really soft. i think we played as well as we could have. when we had 11 we dominated, i think the formation worked particularly because vaz te was exactly what we have missed for a long time. he is very fast, strong and direct.

One of my best friends is a Man u fan and follows the youth/reserve team religiously. He has show me countless highlights from games Morrison plays in and tells me all about how incredible this kid will be. some of the skill i have seen from morrison is out of this world, better than anything I have ever seen and in game (fair enough in reserve games, but still in games) if he can get on with football and cut the crap off the pitch, he will be our best player

sorry to dwell, as we have made some really good signings today, but i have to share this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embed... Its a farewell video for Scotty. this is a sad sad day, i wish Scott huge success in the future, he is a true west ham legend and i will never forget him brightening the dark years.

you don't have to stay at the club for a decade to be a legend. the impact a player has is, in my opinion, is what merits a legendary status. the first time parker kept us up could have saved the club. the 09/10 season. if parker hadnt kept us up, who knows what would have happened when our financial state was as bad as ever. everyone has their opinion, but for me its a no brainer, SUPER SCOTT PARKER IS A CLARET AND BLUE LEGEND

Tue, 30 Aug 2011 17:36:42 +0000

scott had 3 incredible years, was the main man in all of them , kept us up once and almost did it twice. he was an inspiration to everyone, i always felt we had a chance with him in the team. His commitment was better than anything i've seen. he'd stand up for his entire team, take transfer rumours on the chin and stay with us, and would still be with us if we weren't so feeble last year. scott parker, you have made me proud to be a west ham fan over the past few years which in truth have seen no joy or success except in my opinion, you emerging a a true legend. Never will i miss a player like him, i hope he shines in that spurs team to put to bed this pathetic rumour of 'big fish in a small pond'

West Ham Till I Die : £2m Bid for Kyle Lafferty?

Wed, 10 Aug 2011 20:16:48 +0000

carew has a very decent record of scoring, 1998–1999 Vålerenga 33 (14) 1999–2000 Rosenborg 17 (18) 2000–2004 Valencia 84 (20) 2003–2004 → Roma (loan) 20 (6) 2004–2005 Beşiktaş 24 (13) 2005–2007 Lyon 35 (10) 2007–2011 Aston Villa 113 (37) Norway 88 (23) everywhere he has been is 1 in 3 at least, thats quality and thats playing against much better teams than the likes of barnsley, doncaster and even cardiff/ipswhich etc etc. Shane long has a record of about 1 in 4 (championship) and lafferty is another big striker, something everyone says we don't want. Maynard is the one id want to sign, but i would be equally happy signing a proper right mid, its a shame o'neil is out for so long because he would have been perfect.

do me a favour, grant has torn this club down and needs to be accountable for his hopelessness. forgot the owners, he had a great squad filled with internationals improved in january even more, and he manages 7 effing wins? GRANT IF YOU READ THIS YOU ARE PATHETIC, LOOK HOW MANY LEADS WE LOST BECAUSE OF HIM, THE MAN IS A CLOWN

wolves win today and its over, if they lose its going to the last day of the season. i think we'll definately beat wigan with scott back and should beat sunderland. green, jac, tomkins, da costa, bridge sears parker hitz collison ba piquionne/cole thats the team i want for the last 2 games, keane can go back to scum now, he's done his job almost sending us down absolute disgrace of a player. if we come straight up again i think the championship will be a good thing. hopefully several of the acadamy players will step up.

grant clearly has no idea about motivatng a team, so how will he motivate the players for the last few games? he should write on the board in the changing room: man u......................scunthorpe chelsea...................watford arsenal.....................millwall liverpool...................brighton tottenham..................barnsley you choose who you want to play next year.

everyone knows we are a whisker away from relegation. everyone knows most of the squad, board, staff dont give a toss about the club. everyone knows performances have been unnacceptable. how can we fall down and wave the white flag? we expect our players to stand up like men and fight till the death and yet many of us don't do that ourselves. its time for west ham to unite again, and with the return of a certain talisman, icon, hero, i think we can get out of this. we need a leader more than ever on the pitch, and we need the fans to come strong more than ever off it. 4 games to go, 4 wins has to be targeted. battle against city, play around blackburn, fight against wigan, and give everything left against sunderland. im sure many of you have seen this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cIiSO8oUhU as if my love for parker needed rekindling.

grant is pathetic if we are honest, i think every game we play so much worse in the second half, he demotivates every game relegation is not an option for me, because we can clear out the dead wood even if we stay up. it may not be an option, but in my opinion it is over now. 2 losses from our next two games and we will not get up from that

when i got my tickets for the villa game i didnt think it would be this important. i truly beleive if we lose we will go down. its so must win, for confidence more than anything. we need to win our 3 home games really, very do-able but this is west ham! i think every hammers fan wants cole ba and obinna to start, such threat there, pace, creativity, strength, unpredictable, good finishing they would terrorise any defense on their day, not something i can say about o'neil

someone else has mentioned this - what the hell is the point in a touchline ban for ferguson if he gives all the instructions, speaks to the players, is at the ground! its a farce really he shouldnt be allowed to give messages to the bench, that would actually be a ban
