Are you Repka in disguise????? Ok excuse the swan vestas, but I bloody love this guy. Signing of the season, if their was a badge for honesty. He'd get the VC if only the fans could be there to get behind him. I wonder what songs we'd have....??

Lampard Sacking

Delighted to see the Fat One fall flat on his anus bearing in mind I think its as ridiculous a decision as it was by Chelsea to appoint him in the first place. On a positive note for us Hammers fans, one would presume that Declan Rice will be in no hurry to go there now>

The next level

Submitted by mcbikeman on

Leave the Boleyn move to the B.O.M. do this and the land of milk and honey awaits Hammers fans and the golden promise of the next level and the carrot of champions league football..........rmbr those promises? of course you do and now because of whats happened in the world we actually find ourselves in a position where that could become a reality all we need is a bit of belief and to back the manager and get the striker he desperately needs and we could well do the unbelievable and get that top four spot........WTF Gold says i have no money the Haller and Anderson deals left us potless so make do with that kid we got from Manures academy......now stinging as it may be Gold and Co have now to fulfill there promise to the Fans and dig down the back of the sofa and find the cash and show that the promises made were real and not just Bollox...but hearing on the grapevine we are now looking at the loan market FFS you just no it will go pear shaped and we will never have a chance like we have this season for a top four finish.

Who the hell are you!?

So pondering and observing the talk on here about signing a new striker, it’s suddenly struck me, I actually want us to sign someone I’ve never heard of. Bear with me. In recent times anybody we’ve signed with a reputation or expectation has been woeful. Zaza, Evra, Yarmalenko, Arnautovic ( let us down in the end), Joe Hart, Joao Mario, Chicarito, wilshere, Perez, Anderson to name but a few. All with reps. All good players at previous clubs, all came to us and flopped in one way or another. Then take Antonio, Bowen, Soucek, Coufal, Fornals and Dawson. Never heard of them. Some of them I’ve never heard of the clubs they came from. But they’ve all settled and made a starting place their own. So for me you can keep your Danny Ings, Giroud and Josh King’s and give me a “nevererdofya” from some Eastern European league for peanuts. I trust Moyes’ judgement. I trust he will only bring someone in who will add to the team not detract. So if no-ones available, we crack on and pray Antonio stays fit and if not find another way. It’s worked ok till now.

So thoughts for Saturday folks?

For these guys I would like to see The Beast rested, I dont think he is fully fit and I wouldn't risk him. I would love to see Benny and Bowen up front, I think their skill and pace would frighten the life out of the defense.... Cottee and Super Mac!

Yarmo to drop to the bench and bring back Foreskins.

Prediction ... on that basis 3 - 0

Cant see Bugeyes playing two up front even at home to a side struggling for form :o)

My first transfer memory

Submitted by mcbikeman on

Its that time of year again so i thought i would hark back to the first west ham transfer which really hit home with me and it was of non other than Phil Parkes for the princely sum of £565thousand from QPHAA cossack hairspray and all....i rmbr the papers with pics of big Phils hands as he was then the most expensive GK in the world and lil ol west ham did that..it blew my socks off....i just about rmbr Martin Peters being sold to the spuds(will we never learn)so what was your standout Hammers transfer buy?

Forwards and upwards....

I don't know about you all but I would really like to see some consistentency and work rate up front, we just don't have that and are in dire need before we get destroyed by one of the better Teams and morale is affected. Love Antonio but he is never a centre forward, and the shame of the matter is the person that should be leading the line is a lazy sulking waste of space. The odd flash of brilliance is not enough and we need to replace, so what's your views on potential options in January? Loan him back to Eintracht and get an experienced proven forward like Giroud? Who else could we look to lead the line? Or do you think we should wait until Antonio returns and stick with him as a forward given his goals to date?
