Is getting better and better this season... he should start every game, its clear from the last 3 or 4 games how much we rely on him to distribute the ball and play it out from deep. Not only his commanding presence in the team but his determination rallies our team and gets them to perform. Would pick him ahead of Kouyate, Song and Obiang every time.

As I'm sure some of you know looking at text updates or comments on here it's frustrating not knowing. Fortunately it was on five live radio but that just makes me more nervous. Then they go two up, game over surely? So in a right hump I sloped off to have a bath ( happy birthday to me) a long bath. But as habits die hard I kept the radio on in the other room in hope more than anything. The minute I got in the bath I realised it wasn't loud enough to hear clearly! All I could make out is the names Norwich and West Ham from time to time. The rest was a muffled mess of cheers and noise. I sauntered out of the bathroom knowing something had happened only to find an extra point has been rescued! If I put it together with the fact the other half distracted me on Tuesday at the winning goal, it me who should be given the five year contract! Needless to say I'm not available between three and five o'clock on saturdays. Unless of course I don't get my five year contract! Do you think gold and Sullivan will understand?

Just heard on 5 live that Jack Collison has retired. Great shame, and I wish him the very best of luck in whatever he does from here on.
It seems a media career beckons.

Well I thought I posted the quiz up yesterday but there is no sign so let's try again.

Q1. The wardrobe scored 1 goal for West Ham, who is the wardrobe and who did he score against?

Q2. West hams first bosma Signing was?

Q3. Who from this list of players were named in this seasons 25 man squad? Oxford, Hendrie, Samuelson,speigal, Cullen, Sam howes, Henry

Q4. West Ham once won a cup tie but were unable to take their place in the next round why?

Q5. If Norwich were the bread and West Ham were the meat who is the player?

Q6. Which ex hammer sounds like what a German might call his Volkswagen?
Q6.b which hammer sounds like he is used in the "glamour" media

I reckon we have a problem looming and that is our goalkeepers ,its lookin like we have two world class keepers on our hands and im not sure our number 2 will be content to be our F A cup keeper ,i remember when he arrived ,the general consensus seemed to be thanks but no thanks ,since then he has emerged with credibility and made some top class saves ,i hope to fk there isnt going to be a problem ,or am i just a glass half empty type ,wat ja fink

I appreciate Lawro is a twat however sour grapes springs to mind over the recent Liverpool game.

His summary and prediction of the Norwich game:

West Ham are another team that had 120 minutes of FA Cup football in midweek, with their extra-time win over Liverpool on Tuesday.

The Hammers are not playing that well anyway, but fatigue from that tie is part of the reason I am backing Norwich here, despite the Canaries' dismal form that has seen them lose five league games in a row and drop into the bottom three.

The last time Norwich had a positive result was when they won back-to-back home games against Southampton and Aston Villa at the turn of the year.

Alex Neil's team have conceded eight goals in their past two home games and they desperately need their results at Carrow Road to improve because their away form is not going to keep them up.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0

I'm looking forward to Norwich away again this coming Saturday with Oliver, Delia's pies after a few beers, but I have experienced a few over the years so come one.......share your memories of your Away Day experiences over the years!

Tomkins,obrien reed and kouyate all out injured for the trip to norwich. I assume we will play Cresswell, ginge, Ogbonna but who will fill the other position ?

The one thing that seems to be coming clear over the last couple of decades is that scousers just love to play the victims! Just read a lot of their comments about Tuesday's game and they really just don't get they are now only a mid table team. Over 95 per cent of them were slagging everything off other than their team. Said we were a disgrace from the start. Constantly throwing ourselves to the ground, long ball, never a penalty or a free kick for our goal. Ordinary players, ref gave us everything, not once did we get any credit. They played a shadow team whilst we played our best team! No mention of us playing Randolph and joey and obiang. Or missing sakho, song, Adrian, Lanzini, byram, Tomkins. The closest I came was when one person stated they haven't beaten us in four games and only scored one goal. We were described as a very limited team! It's about time the media and their fans realise that most things in Liverpool are just a myth! No not everyone in Liverpool is funny, not everyone can sing, their fans are not that knowledgeable or gracious in defeat and most importantly the team is currently no more than a mid table team who buy over priced players that are over rated.
