The Mark Noble stand

Submitted by Hammers 65 on

Had a thread recently about naming the last stand after a westham hero,I think it's glaringly obvious now who it should be named after!!I've never understood the criticism aimed at him by some of our support,is it because the modern day footballer is not worthy of the same accolades of heroes from the past?Mr Westham I salute you

what kind of football do you like? passing for passings sake or a simple pass and movement at pace style where runs in behind the opposition trying to stretch them and nothing wrong with a long ball either as long as it is not played over and over again....styles make football not every player can play like they do in the premier and not every player can play like the do in the spanish or italian leagues so all the nonsense about which leagues are better are irrelevant too my mind.

A Period of Mourning

Submitted by moore2come on

I may be the only one but the Spud v Pooh Champs League final is, in my eyes, a true disaster for football.
Here we have, outside of their own fanbases (and possibly inside too) two of the most despised clubs in World football.
The arrogance of both sets of fans literally makes me want to puke and Barcelona and Ajax have conspired to make next months final a nightmare for me.
How can two clubs that were so far from being Champions of England last year contest a Champions League final? Liverpool's form this season has been nothing short of remarkable and for that they can I suppose be applauded, but the Spuds? Come on. Their form in the run in has seen them handed a lifeline by not just Manchester Utd but also their NL neighbours. They're not fit to lace the boot of most of Europe's powerhouses but have somehow (very generous refereeing) made it to the decider.
I for one, won't be watching as from this weekend's EPL finale I will enter a period of mourning for English/European/World football. I'm sure many like me will be doing the same.

Where did that form come from

Talking about Arthur here,what the hells happened to him? we all know going forward he is good and can put a decent cross in but defensively he is an accident waiting to happen but he seems to have worked a lot on that side of his game so from being a player that looked certain for the door this summer has he done enough for El Pel these past couple of weeks to keep in the squad? i have gone from someone who wanted him out to now being creosote about him mmm i sense a poll maybe needed.

Socios.com - Good idea or just another con?

Submitted by Dartford Bhoy on

I guess you have all seen the latest propaganda from The Porn Dwarfs. I thought at first this was a great idea. Immediate feedback on important decisions that effect the fans until I realised that you have to buy tokens to have an opinion. As usual another money making con from the board? Why not just allow fans that have already paid to have links such as club membership, season tickets and God forbid Bond Holders just have it for free?

How to beat spuds

Submitted by hammergirl on

Simple Mash them up:-)but in reality we need to stop Son getting behind our back four so maybe putting a heavy challenge in early on him and Eriksson may put them in there shells a bit as they think more about Ajax than us,Anderson needs to turn up big time today and i am all for Antonio starting upfront ahead of Arnie and chicarito his physical presence could again get the spud defenders worrying about picking up an injury ahead of the Ajax game.We start the game right and not slow and play like we have done against manure we will get result this time round i am going for a 0-1 hammers victory COYI

All hail, Pep, the footballing Managerial Genius.

tired of hearing the bum licking of this guy. Now hes saying losing 1-0 is better than getting 0-0. I've heard some tripe in my time from the masters like Keegan, but this one is even better. Every time you turn on the t.v to one of these premier league talk shows - its a Pep love fest. The man has 'changed' our football, hes brought training methods only aliens would have thought of, every decision he makes on the pitch is pure genius. well, hes a football manager who has been given an open cheque book like no other. even down to the youth players he brings through (hardly a sniff), everyone has been bought. he picks up the phone and says 'I want...' and he arrives. he says I need 3 top players in every position and its done with a wave of a wand. can you really go wrong with whoever you throw together in an 11 when they are the best players going? well I hate spurs as much as the next guy but I took some satisfaction in having city lose last night.
