Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
I'm a bit disappointed with the result last night, but it just wasn't meant to be and one of them games, why he kept Piquionne on though is beyond me.

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
I don't quite know where BFS gets all these adjectives from - I thought we were pretty piss poor yesterday, again...
Baldock off for CC - wtf - Piq was rubbish all night.
It's gonna be a long slog of a season...

My mates sister is the Bristol City tea lady, and he was telling me that David James had a big smile on his face after the game yesterday, saying how delighted he was at keeping his first ever clean sheet at the boleyn ground.

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
Tedious game Nolan looked very poor,Total shadow of the guy who used to notch regularly for Bolton and Newcastle.
Sears just hasnt got it He might be one of our own but far too lightweight.
What was Sam doing starting with our worst lazy out of form striker? in Picquoinne when Carew was great on Sat.
Baldock allways has a goal in him why sub him,Cole looked miles of the pace.
No creativity from midfield either, a poor poor display that I paid 32.00 for and a 200 mile round trip thanks lads.

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
Next day, last night is done.
Frustrating night, but we'll get them this season.
Few things worked, most didn't. Not worth pissing, moaning and crying that you haven't seen 1 little goal in the 4 little games that you've been. Sob. No wonder opinions are so skewed.
Some people really need to remove those soiled tampons.
Now? Bothered. It's Wednesday and I look forward to the next game.

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
Last night was another illustration of what we have coming the next few years. We were in search of a goal against bottom of the table Bristol City, most managers would be looking to their bench to bring on attackers capable of unlocking a defence. Whereas our manager takes off Baldock and Sears and just wacks on the biggest, blackest subs he has. We played the last 15 minutes as a narrow unit with everything cramped into the middle making it hard for anyone to create. In my opinion teams can be broke down by the better sides easier with wingers hugging the lines creating big gaps for the midfielders and strikers to run in to
Sam obviously doesn't see things like that and I suppose he will continue with his 'lump to the big useless ****' tactic when in search of a goal
That is not for me

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
I've stood through dozens of these type of matches.
Come the end of the season it will be a distant memory. A hard fought three points at Brighton are a bonus because you know you will balance it off with a **** result somewhere else..........and it will probably continue like that to varying degrees throughout the whole season......this is the championship and we are not that better than the rest.
Hopefully enough though....

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
Frustrating game. Not sure what game Big Sam was watching though. He couldnt fault the performance but we just lacked the goals. That wouldnt be my take on it.
Another Tuesday night wasted. Throw in the chaos at the station after the game because ,and i quote the umpteen old bill / private security 'only two of the gates would open'. Pensioners, kids et all having to climb over metal railings to access the station while all those in high vis stood around with their hands in their pockets. Upton Park tube station really is a piss take.

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
the whole game can be summed up with one passage of play, curiously from the the o/s of all places- how the f*** we didnt concede in those final stages i have no idea...
"94 mins - Bristol City have another corner. Kilkenny beats Nolan with a neat touch and cuts inside before his shot takes a deflection on it's way behind. Last chance. The ball is sliced by Piquionne at the near post and rolls across the face of goal and out for a corner on the near side. Kilkenny takes again the Piquionne volleys into a City playerr, the ball loops goalwards and Green collects. Before he can clear, the final whistle goes.
i)weak
ii)clueless
iii)hapless

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
I was there last night, i didnt boo though at the end. It was just the lack of movement up front that was a problem, bar little sam, who was maybe taken off due to his injury in the first half (if it was tactical WHY NOT PIQ?!)
second half especially the wingers were too narrow, we just had no width, and cos of that everyone went for the big hoof. The thing that has annoyed me over previous years is the fact that 34,000 people can see how bad a player is playing, you just know he'll always lose the ball. It happened under Grant and Zola with Mido and McCarthy, you could just tell it wouldn't work with them on. I just hope big Sam wont be like that . .

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
He didn't do himself any favours with his post match comments that's for sure .Frustrated at seeing his move for EHD blocked , he appears to be allowing the demons enter his head - "down to the bare bones" ........"all the injuries"........."9 men behind the ball".......and my personal fave "if the fans aren't happy with what they have seen, well I don't know what they want" .I8CHAVS wrote:Sam again disregarding the fans in an interview last night...
He needs to stop being so sensitive and self concious of what he perceives are criticisms over his style of play .Perhaps somebody should tell him this season is the least amount of booing heard at the Boleyn for a few seasons .If he thinks he's getting it in the neck..................

Resistence is futile Sweeney.......Sweeney Bod wrote:I read PP's muses and many times disagree,
I voiced an opinion to somebody last night that if his presence in home games is deemed essential for captaincy purposes ( not a theory I subscribe to btw) , then perhaps selecting him at CB may be an option .Sweeney Bod wrote: but our main problem is, (and yes Pinky, I now agree), we are playing with 10 men. Nolan is offering nothing. Despite being a big bloke, he is pushed off tackles too easily, and his attacking play is running as fast up fieled leaving the midfield depleted.
I've been putting Noble and Diop as my two central midfielders for a while now for home games . Nolan, as a fifth "midfielder" away is ok - he fills space .At home, the two up top mean we have to leave a midfielder out .
Either that , or Sam decides to win ugly every week .Which he may well do .

Re: West Ham Utd v Bristol City: match thread
It was Boring, okay we can say it was one of those nights but against a team right at the bottom, again Sam and his tactics but it is never him, we need to pick ourselves up for the weekend, they are only a few point behind us!
