West Ham are complete failures! Let's all laugh at 'em!

[BWFC_Insane]

Its shocking that West Ham who have spent a fortune this season, on players from the premiership (Nolan, Taylor, Carew, etc) then when that didn't work spent a fortune to buy the best championship players (Vaz Te, lad from Bristol City who's name escapes me) kept most of their squad together, have a massive wage bill, cannot get automatic promotion.

And they have a manager who SHOULD be ideal to achieve that.

Can't get my head around how they've managed to balls it up!

allardyce must be utterly shite, surely?

He hasn't done very well there so far thats for sure.

If he doesn't take em up through the play offs will be interesting to see what happens to him. Had a flick on KUMB last night, they seem pretty indifferent to him. Which surprised me.

yeah either way - it'll be an interesting spectator sport! Most of the people I speak to round here want allardyce to be gone as soon as possible....

The last couple of games I've seen West Ham (4-0 win at Barnsley & 6-0 win at home to Brighton) I thought they played some really good football at times. Passing on the floor and to each other! I didn't think Sam had it in him!

That would be apart from the 22 players who left last summer.....

Getting beat at the moment by Leicester.

[Annoyed Grunt]

Scratch that, 1-1.

[BWFC_Insane]

Scratch that, 1-1.

Top quality cross from Matt Taylor!

True.....even I could've scored.

Which won't be an easy game.

Just gone 1 up in the 2nd leg, 3 up on aggregate....looks like they're in the play off final.

Nolan offers nowt in open play, but feck me, if the ball bounces in the box. He'll get on the end of it.

He's a master at being in the right place at the right time.

Yet again though, they've shown that working on set-plays proves fruitful. If only our manager decided to put more than 4 players in the oppo's box and did the ugly stuff like blocking 'keepers.

Saying that.. Hardly 'being nice' is it.. Which is seemingly more important than results to our gaffer

[boltonboris]

Vaz te makes it 2-0 (4-0 agg). What a finish!!!!

So you're saying West Ham are a decent example of the organised approach we are lacking?

Hmmmmmm.......

[boltonboris]

I've never said otherwise.

I've never said otherwise.

I know.....

I miss big sam

so, once again, in an entirely identical situation to the one where Bolton played Spurs a week or so ago, West Ham, by sheer brilliant feat of textbook organisation have beaten a hugely superior squad of players 2-0...

Will they be giving us 6pts in the premiership, six points in the championship - or will we pass like shits in the night??

The point being we'd have had more chance beating Spurs had we adopted the tactics and setup West Ham did.

You might want to ask why we are the only side Spurs have beaten away from home in 2012, including Aston Villa, QPR and the mighty Stevenage.........

nope - I wasn't going to ask you anything... I was just reporting today's game. I wasn't aware you had already commented...

now you mention it, though, setting up to play a side vastly superior to you (us vs spurs) is NOT the same as West Ham setting up to play an inferior side in the championship when already 2 goals up... that's what I think, anyway...

thanks for your interest!
