100 odd days a chance to recharge and think of what formation what players he wants so now Moyes and the players have to step up for next 9 matches and prove to those watching that they deserve our support...no fans in the stadium so no pressure from the stands...we have heard in the past about how the crowd affects players and the pressure it puts on them well now with a stray pass or missed chance we will not be there to howl moan groan(i've done enough of that recently!)so the players will not have that excuse but we will also not be there to cheer them on to applaud some great movement to get excited as the team pile on the pressure as we roar our approval...so what can we expect from West Ham as ever you never know i just hope we survive COYI we have missed you.

Irons beat Palace 2-1 in the last arranged warm up, sorry don't know the scorers.

Been thinking about this for few weeks and wondered who you would have in your all time west ham team....its not a competition just a healthy debate and be interesting to see who would or would not be in your side...so here is mine and just did a 1 to 11 not putting shirt numbers on.

1.Parkes 2.Dicks 3.Stewart 4.Moore 5.Martin 6.Ward 7.Devonshire 8.Brooking 9.Noble 10.Di Canio 11.Cottee......subs as follows

1.Ludo 2.Bonds 3.Gale 4.Cresswell 5.Moncur 6.Berkovic 7.Etherington 8.Ward 9.Ashton 10.Mcavennie 11.Goddard

yes i no i have left a few notables out but i am happy with my starting line up so over to you now my fellow orgers

I guess like me you are getting a bit feed up with the lockdown and started looking for something to watch on the box.

I recently came across this :

Its better to watch on the TV with Amazon Prime. It could be seen by the younger supporters as a bit twee, its just chat with rather odd cartoon characters. It focuses on the late 70's and the cup win in 1980. As someone who just past 60 this was a great period for me. I thought we played some of the best football and the two years in the old 2nd Div were not really an issue. We held onto Bonds and Brooking and made some brilliant signings notably Phsycho, Dev, Pancho, the most expensive goalkeeper in the world at that time, Parks and the most expensive teenager ever, Tonka...all this to a club in the second league! On that basis alone you see why todays West Ham fans feels our club has lost its ambition. Take the time to watch it, brought back some very special memories!

Stay well everyone, stay safe... we are Moore than

Just to say Stay Safe to all my fellow hammers....

Despite the postponement of games until at least April 3 one bright light I see is that West Ham will be safe! I've heard that games will potentially be played behind closed doors at neutral grounds, so provided any closest rivals for relegation have their games at the BOM we should be good, but also remember this. West Ham's well known injury curse will most likely result in at least 95% of our squad coming down with Covid-19 so will be unable to play games and the season will have to be declared null and void. Christ I half expect TBBB (The B*tch Baroness Brady) to be actively sourcing vials of the virus and slipping it into player meals!

All these years i have been trying different diets how stupid was i if only i had realised the Andrex Pasta Rice Diet it seems very popular in my part of the world:-)...of course i would like to point out to others(millenials mainly)that Pasta from Italy and Rice from China mmmmm i wonder what links those two foodstuffs!

Yeah it was fun seeing the spuds implode knowing yet again this BIG club lol will win nothing yet again something we hammers fans new all along...but odbod going into the crowd to have a go at a "fan" for apparently insulting him was even more amusing because his younger brother had heard it and got upset.....so what should his punishment be? i thought wearing that shirt and playing in the toilet bowl was punishment enough!! whilst very amusing how far do you go when having a go at your own players? not talking about venting on the keyboard like here but at the stadium?...i was in the stand when Repka got hold of one of our fans cannot rmbr the punishment if any he got for that but how much could you take before snapping like odbod did...general stuff like you are "rubbish/sh*t/fat/Wan**r" etc i expect for a footballer is water off a ducks back but if its something more personal i am surprised more footballers don't go into the crowd.

discuss.

Our fans, with the help of the Kopites, will stage a protest against the club's owners tonight. So guess what the board have done – reduced the allocation to 1,800 from the usual 3000, the first fixture this season for which the club have not asked for their full allocation. Which is nonsense, just our legion of Northern Hammers could have taken that many!

Why you ask are thety doing this? Scared of the repercussions of the protest tonight perhaps?

Our fans will release black balloons and organisers have asked those bringing them to ensure they are biodegradable…. :o) Love it!
So, on the night that West Ham's players will wear T-shirts in the warm-up paying tribute to Bobby Moore, 27 years to the day since he died, our fans will be showing just what they think of the unholy trinity! Good luck to them and lets see what unfolds tonight but also on Saturday… Come on you Irons!!!
