Just how do the board do this and keep straight faces when putting offers on the table for players is a farce...we all have heard that Decs turned down two offers but rumour has it if he is made the highest earner at the club he will sign...of course it means nothing all that gets you is more money when he leaves....now its coming out that Coufal contract talks have started and he feels let down as to the offer he has been given.......i tell you our club has no idea and i mean NO idea what they are doing,of course it is called a negotiation for a reason and the players agent will get the best possible deal for there man but when you have players who are clearly very very talented footballers like it or not you have to pay them what they are worth...how many times have we given out dumb 4 year contracts on injury prone bang average players? to many thats the answer......so FFS when you have genuine talent stop messing about make them decent offers because unless you do why would other players want to join a club seen as tight arses when it comes to handing out contracts to top players.

Scored some great goals for us,captain of a national team ,scored what will roberbly be goal of the Euro's, tell me again why is he surplus to west ham requirements

How horrible was it see Christian Eriksen stumble to the ground. You new straight away things was not good. As much as I hated him whilst wearing a Tottenham shirt you could never do anything but admire how great a footballer he was. I say was, as being someone with a heart condition and in a way like Eriksen being in the right place at the right time am lucky still to be here. Just can't see him coming back from that. Eriksen was definitely saved by the quick response of those around him and the professional support and equipment around him.
Like many watching events unfold. I was sitting in tears, praying for a positive outcome. He could so easily have been one of ours. Afterall he was linked in January.This has happened to one of our own already. The great Marc Vivien Foe. His death also occured whilst on International duty? Perhaps this is 1 tournament too far & the players should have been given a decent break.

Rumour has it that Lingard had a £110 thousand pound watch stolen from the dressing room after the Everton game and the only people who had access were two physios two players and the kit man so that seems to be the news that the club are trying to keep quiet and away from the papers....If true that will fester untill it is resolved.......to a player it is not a lot but it is the principle and being able to trust your colleagues.

I think we are still a chance mathematically to make it, even though I don’t do that good in tipping contests, looking at the remaining draws we can still get fourth spot. At the moment Leicester are there with three games to play but I can only see them winning maybe one of those games and that’s against Spurs which would give them 66 points..
Pool have four games to play but I don’t see them playing well enough to beat Manu, they should win the other three so they would end up on 66 points.
Everton have four games and apart from their last game against Man City will probably win the rest mind you Aston Villa will test them so they will finish on 64 points.
Tottenham if they win their last three will finish on 65 points but their last game against Leicester could be dicey as that’s the one I think could go either way.
It could all come down to the last round, but anything could happen, exciting times and also arse clenching times to be a West Ham United supporter but I think at worst we could os should end up in at least the Europa league so does everyone agree it’s been a fantastic season.

Really Hate some Journo's

Throughout the years we've seen some Brilliant players grace our club, Devonshire, Brooking etc. But over the past few years we've also had some players if only for a short while, namely Payet, Arnautovic and as it would seem now Lingard. I quite often have a look at the West Ham News Now All Sources and one of the stories I clicked on was 'Is Lingard too good for West Ham'. There was even a poll on it, which gets me thinking 'Why are we constantly belittled by the gutter press?' and Journalists in general?? We get a good player and after a while they start again?? with comments about your Chelsea's and Manchester United.

It is almost laughable that a multi billionaire and a state owned football club should be the first to break away from the 'septic six'! They didn't need it in the first place!

We've had Costa, Mateta, Gomez, Batshuayi all
mentioned in the same breath as Giroud
to name a few. It now seems Abraham is a target too
Reading that Chelsea are now up for signing
Alfie Inge Haaland and Aguero. Thus dropping Abraham even further down the pecking list. Personally think that he
could do a decent job for us. Albeit on loan or signing. Your thoughts??

A few of our coaching staff have compared Keenan Appiah-Forson, how he is right up there with N'Golo Kante of Chelsea. Now Rice is going to be out for a while, wouldn't it be time to either play Forson or give Coventry a chance. Noble is always the likely choice but shouldn't we be blooding our youngsters?

has passed away aged 65 after a long illness R.I.P Glen Roeder so sad.
