Re: Newcastle Utd v West Ham Utd - Match Thread

I'd settle for a bore draw, would be epic if we could pinch the win, gut tells me it will be an entertaining 2-2 or even 3-3. They do know how to score goals (15 in their last 6 matches), but they ship a fair few too. In their last six league games, Luton (4), Forest (2), Bournemouth (2), Arsenal (4...

Re: 🚗 🚌 🚅 ✈ The Away Game & Match Day Logistics Thread

Is anyone planning in having a beer in Cologne & then getting a train to the ground early evening? There will be thousands of WHU in Cologne. Only 20/30 mins to the stadium in a taxi, less than 40 euro. Plenty of buses and trains too if you want a cheaper option. https://www.rome2rio.com/map/Co...

Re: England -v- Brazil & then -v- Belgium

^^^^^ This is for me why we will not win anything under Southgate. Surely Italy could have said the same, they are below us in that table... yet they beat us to win the last Euros. We also beat Spain last time we played them (in Spain and under Southgate too), yet they are above us in this table. I...

Re: Declan Rice

Personally I hope Rice wins at least one trophy this season thoroughly deserves it imo Top player. Yep, the Euro's with England. Other than that, couldn't give a flying one and don't personally see it. I still think Man City have a few gears to go through in the final stages and Liverpool will be d...

Anyone thinking of going by ferry to Dublin should we make the final – It may be premature but we bought refundable ferry tickets from Holyhead to Dublin yesterday. Some of the ferries the day before and after the final are already fully booked – probably those loveable Scousers assuming they’ll be...

Re: (WHU related) FA CUP Lack of semi final appearances.

Snowman wrote: Wed Mar 20, 2024 4:15 am It's not great when you consider that 19 teams have appeared in three or more semis in that time including the likes of Luton (3), Sheff Utd (5) and Watford (6). We are on a par with Wigan Athletic, Oldham Athletic and Millwall.
How many European trophies have they won in that time?

Re: The next 6 games...

With regards to Europe, I don't think we will exactly crash out. We are in the Quarter Final against one of the strongest teams in Europe outside of the Premier League. I personally feel that QF / SF can be considered a decent run in the Europa League this season. Obviously to get to the final would...

The balls cannons off his thigh, doesn't it? Yep, pops up off of his thigh. It is possible that his left arm (with the bandage) swung round and clipped the ball... but it is very hard to tell and VAR were not given the opportunity to review it. As others have said, it could have been a great spot b...

Alternatively JWP failed to convert a glorious chance late in the second half, and we had to settle for a draw.
That was a great block to be fair. But still a missed chance.

I might be old but I'm not deaf Whether it actually was a foul on the keeper is another issue I'd get the ears and eyes checked Oldie...watch the clips. The ref doesn't even put his whistle to his mouth until the clearance hits Kudus. Then he instantly puts the whistle to his mouth and blows as it ...

I'm still not having that Ace, and it isn't just because I hate Martinez. I have somehow wasted half my day looking at this. Driving me mad. They are both at it, they both start at far post, then move toward the near post and there really isn't enough either way to give a foul because neither are im...

Re: West Ham United v Aston Villa: match thread (17.03.24)

Correct, there was no move to give a foul on the keeper, not even a hint of him flinching or thinking of giving a foul on the keeper. He didn't even begin to put his whistle to his lips until the ball hit Kudus and then he blew instantly. It looks far more likely that he thought there was a Kudus ha...

Re: West Ham United v Aston Villa: match thread (17.03.24)

From Sky, today. Very interesting, kinda how I see it too. Soucek was guilty of a couple of offences, deep down I do think that one should have been disallowed. Antonio was harsh / bad luck but they are the rules. The Kudus one the ref simply blew too early so we will never know. They seemed very s...

Re: West Ham United v Aston Villa: match thread (17.03.24)

I simply disagree, watch it at quarter speed and watch the spin of the ball, in my humble opinion it's past his right hand before it changes direction… It would have to be visually past his hand from that angle. It hits his wrist and then changes direction. Again, the fact we are even going over th...
