Not to mention the chance we have (albeit a diminishing one) of finishing in one of the auto promotion slots......

Like that...I'd be tempted to try and wedge Taylor in there some how...switch wings with Vaz Te and bench Faubert or maybe at LB.

Would like to see Diop in the team.
If BFS was more attack minded it might be worth considering Lansbury playing off the striker.
Cant imagine a great deal of change, but I would be willing to see cetain players rested with a view to testing others.

Screw Allardyce and his negative, safety-first approach! IF we are still looking for automatic promotion Big Sam should release our strikers and also put in some players who can pass the ball and are quick. Two strikers playing as actual strikers are a must.
I would go with Baldock and Maynard (but wouldn't mind seeing the likes of Montenegro, Cole and Carew as well).
My ideal formation:
Green
Demel - Tomkins - Reid - Mc Cartney
Vaz Te - Lansbury - Nolan - Taylor
Maynard-Baldock
Bench: Henderson, Collins, O'Neil, Cole, Montenegro

I would be pretty disappointed if we sell anything less than 3k for this game, despite recent performances! I want to see Baldock start up top!

Barnsley are a dreadful side, it'll be an easy win for West Ham

I'm really tempted to do this fixture. Have loved the away fixtures this season in this league. Will it be fairly easy to pick up a ticket on the day? Also, any ideas what Barnsley is like for a night out?

See my post and twitter pic above, I'm back home to see family and watch the match so I'm about 20 mins away going towards Huddersfield.
It's still snowing, however it's not as heavy as it was earlier.

I dont, have you not seen Leeds recent demise since they're fantastic draw against us.Plus they are losing players left right and centre due to suspensions and injury. I think they have got another two out for friday. I would be surprised if reading dont win by two clear goals.
