Well being omniscient, I would hope so, but it doesn't take the Almighty to know we actually created 3 clear chances, only 2 of which we on target and one we score and the other the keeper saved in slow-mo.
P*ssing rain? Damp but not a downpour.
Possession ? Leave it to demons, we need goals.

I just read this whole thread on KUMB - and I'm still amazed. Who do these nice people think they are?

I just trawled through that thread, Zulu, and cannot really find much to criticise. As best I can see most of them are just about reconciled to relegation and the odd one or two think that the London press journos are all 'ammers at 'art. Maybe they are and maybe they aren't but, after all, WHU is a London club - well, one of 'em - so you can expect them to receive more coverage than Bolton, Birmingham and Blackburn.
Surely their rants are no worse than those that appear here from time to time?

I still think they're a bunch of nice people! (It's not my fault, it's the law.)Dujon wrote:I just trawled through that thread, Zulu, and cannot really find much to criticise.

I did enjoy this post:
i don't know about us being perceived as a big club, but west ham are possibly the country's biggest underachievers, which makes us pretty loveable (well, we are, aren't we?) to neutrals. i don't know about this "everyone's favourite second club" stuff, but certainly it appears that outside of london we're not really that detested and although you might get your leg pulled for it, saying you're a west ham fan carries a certain kudos for some reason (knowing about football, how it should be played, blah, blah...possibly). this added to the fact that west ham are sometimes such an unmitigated disaster both on and off the field means that the interest is always going to be big (it's also good for clichéd eastender/soap opera references).
