"I wouldn't pick Andy Carroll just because he scored a hat trick". Don't know about you guys, but it just ticks me off to hear this. It's so utterly dismissive. He was the same about Noble. Speaking absolutely, maybe neither of them should be in the England squad, but there's a way to speak professionally about these things. For example, "What a magnificent performance he had against Arsenal; if he could play like that consistently, he'd be making a real case for inclusion." What do you think?

Both injury prone but both seem surplus to requirements at arsenal so would we want them? rumours are that we could be interested in chamberlain but so are Southampton..interesting months ahead and qualifying for Europe will no doubt attract better players but I guess we will wait and see just who bilic wants and who he wants shot of.

Hi Everyone,
I know its not a West Ham Subject, but I know how much of a top bunch you all are and I just wanted to post my JustGiving page as I will be running my first Marathon in Chelmsford (23/10/2016). The charity I will be running for is Cancer Research. Also if anyone else from the Org fancies running as well, we can meet up on the day before the run. https://www.justgiving.com/James-Gooding1

Thought that may wake a few of you up and know it is not reality well not yet it isn't but with the whole deal coming to light its been shown that we as a club do not have a veto over any other club wanting to share the stadium all that happens is our costs would be reduced and we get priority over fixtures....so I am guessing for the one season maybe two that the spuds need to build there own new stadia Levy will be interested very much so in ground sharing as they are having trouble finding somewhere to play....and whats to stop chelski doing the same....yup it will happen I am sure of it and so our new home will be forever tainted with anyone wanting to play there can if they have go the money of course.....so its not OUR HOME at all we are just council tenants when all said and done.

With the poo and city progressing to the semi finals of their respective European competitions there is a possibility that both could end up winning the competition. If that were the case then even if we finish 4th we wont qualify for the champions league.my understanding is that we can only have 4 teams enter the champions league. So that will be Leicester , Spurs and probably arsenal plus one other. Champions league winners and Europa league winners automatically qualify so even 3rd place might not qualify. Or do I have this wrong ?

Shockingly bad tonight and I couldn't believe it when I saw that he was starting! Can anyone offer a difference to my opinion, in that we bought him in panic mode and clearly he isn't good enough? £12m???

I think the writing was on the wall for this game and probably the rest of the season taking a nosedive,with the Sakho-Bilic fiasco,leaving a nasty after-taste.What a time for it to happen ,just before the most crucial game of the season,leaving our best striker in limbo.I'm not a Carroll knocker,I like the guy,but this game was ideal for Sakho and Valencia with their movement and pace.Instead we get a target man with no service and left high and dry for most of the game.Westham were second best for much of the game ,only the last 20 minutes or so did they begin to move up a gear.I don't know the full story behind the row, but surely Bilic should have not allowed his own pride to get in the way of the clubs interests at such a crunch time.I'm really annoyed with this situation,the way Bilic has handled it allowing it to fester and blow our season out of the water......absolutely gutted,to say the least,I thought this was our year.

It's being talked about that Nolan may have been sacked from orient, just wondering what people's thought on this if true?
