Dailly was Dailly. OK but a few dodgy parts. Collins was excellent.

HAHA, cant believe I forgot it was played at a neutral ground, still cant believe where in the semi's.

Anyway my mate was saying if we get into the final with Chelsea and we lose we dont get a UEFA Cup spot, is that true or not??

Yossi and NRC were great. what game were you watching mate?

NRC was brilliant, Yossi created the 2nd goal so he gets a thumbs up from me, with a player like Yossi it only takes him 5 seconds to turn a poor game into a brilliant one, I thought Dailly was poor at right back though.

Well with all the crap Pardew was getting from some the last few days he must be vindicated today... not only because resting the players proved worthwhile but how smart was he to sign Ashton at 7 million at a time when many were saying that is way overpriced - he is looking more and more like a bargain every day, and he is still so young, just wait until next year!!

Anyone else who watched the game on the Beeb think Mark Bright's had a crush on Richards for Man City?

He must've remarked "ooh, he's so big, he's so strong" at least 23 times in the 1st half alone :D :D :D

if you look earlier in this thread, someone posted up a gif of ashton's first goal. the bbc has a crap 2x2-o-vision "highlights" thing:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/video_a ... 304501.stm

which has the added bonus of looking like it has been filmed underwater - otherwise keep an eye open for the usual suspects....

Just got back home after having travelled up to Manchester.
Great team performance from all the players.
James Collins and Danny G were outstanding.
REo-Coker and Mullins bossed the midfield., with Yossi and Etherington giving us good width
Ashton's first goal was brillant.Harewood's running was tireless as ever.
Pardew's team selection was spot on. Brave decision to pick Collins at c-back and to play Dailly at r-back.Where are all the knockers now.


Estimate 6000 Hammers there. Not bad for a Monday night, when the game was live on the beeb. In the words of The Guardian "the visiting partisans hollered their theme in delirious celebration, though the only bubble which burst here was blue."

Roll on the semi-final, hopefully on the Saturday to avoid clashing with London Marathon - which I'm running.

Stuck doing a night shift tonight - only got to see the last half-hour... nervy final 10!!!

Cannot believe we're there... no clashes with work either, fingers crossed.

Give me Charlton, Middlesbrough or Birmingham and I'll be a happy man. Guarantee we draw Mickeys or Ch£l$ki though.
