Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!
So many of our fans are going to get the manager that they deserve. Not what they think they deserve, but what they actually deserve. They've already got the owner they deserve. Because that's where the problem really is, and so many don't understand that until there is change at that level, well.....

Re: West Ham Utd v Bayer Leverkusen: match thread (2nd leg)
Genuine q - what makes you proud of Moyes tonight? The initial set up was good but the second half was a dreadful coaching performance imo. Subs (despite lack of depth of squad) were unbelievable imo You’ve contradicted yourself there - he had nothing to change it up on that bench. Thought Moyes ma...

Re: FA Cup replays scrapped
Reading between the lines, this looks like being an effort to accommodate the extra Champions League game weeks.

Re: Bayer Leverkusen v West Ham Utd Europa QF 1st leg match thread
We have about 12 or 13 players being flogged to death all season Moyes has worked miracles to get us this far in both the league and this cup Shame on you David Sullivan this is all on you Difficult to disagree - Fornals, Benrahma and Kehrer would have all been useful from the bench this evening. W...

Re: Bayer Leverkusen v West Ham Utd Europa QF 1st leg match thread
This is a proper European game - the sort of match I once wondered if I'd ever see us involved in. No Alvarez and Bowen make it an even bigger challenge, but we still have enough to pose them problems. As others have said, if we can see it respectable tonight, we've every chance of pulling off a sho...

Re: ✍ Welcome, Jarrod Bowen
Just to be clear, that text I quoted was from this BBC article which still hasn’t been corrected (it seems pretty clear that Moyes has been misquoted): https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/ckr52g935r8o.amp

Re: ✍ Welcome, Jarrod Bowen
From this Moyes’ presser this evening: On Bowen's absence, he added: "He's twisted his knee and there's some sort of damage. We can't give any dates of when he might be back, unfortunately. He's an England international and we know how important he is to our team, so he'll be a miss for sure.&q...

Re: Financial fair play ?
Going to be a bit of a fire sale on Chelsea's homegrown in the summer you'd have to think. Their problem is that the likes of Broja and Chalobah have probably decreased in value over the course of the season - no club in their right mind is going to pay what Chelsea will want for them. Even the like...

Re: The Summer Transfer Thread 2024
I hope I'm wrong, but with our track record of poor forward planning I can well imagine we won't have the managerial situation sorted until deep into the summer, followed by a mad rush to buy and shift out players.

Re: Everton vs West Ham United Match Thread
As a kid I thought the Kendall-era Everton were kind of cool as they offered genuine competition to a then dominant Liverpool. As time has gone on though, I've developed a real dislike of the club thanks to old Toffee-supporting colleagues I've had to work with, plus the dodginess that still surroun...

This is the scenario that concerns me the most. Could well be the case if Tim ups and leaves.

Re: West Ham United v Brentford : match thread
Having seen the magic elixir quality it had last night, Phillips should probably be given the courtesy of being judged when he's playing in a team with Paqueta present. Even players like Bowen and Kudus have looked lost in the the hot garbage we've been putting out post-Christmas so it's reasonable...

Re: West Ham United v Brentford : match thread
We needed that.
One takeaway I had from last night - on the basis of last night's performances, I don't think Phillips gets in our starting midfield. Soucek in particular had a really good game.

Re: Stan Bowles R.I.P.
I’m too young to remember him as a player in his prime, but from the retrospective highlights that would regularly crop up on TV when I was a kid he seemed as cool as a player gets. Skilful, cheeky and a showman. While I appreciate his glory days coincided with a lull for the national team, it seems...

Re: Players that almost played for us
you could say the same about john terry & sol campbell I played in a London Cup game against Sol Campbell when he was playing for Senrab - head and shoulders the best player on the pitch - he would have been about 14 at the time. All the talk after the game was that West Ham had missed out on h...
