As for 'who's next' a lot will depend upon if Sullivan is still here. If he is and still calling the shots, I think it is pretty certain that whoever arrives will be a known name (rather than up and coming) which will hamper Steitden somewhat. So regardless who is on his list, if Sullivan hasn't hea...

Some excellent posts last few pages. Some sanity. I am not sure how each of you feel, but I feel knackered and tired of it all. My head hurts. Relegation worries were less negative and easier to take than this. Perhaps that is it. We became so used to yo yoing between bottom third and middle tier, w...

And btw it makes me sad to say that. Some very fair points TTS and presents the quandary I feel most of us face. With the spectre of Sullivan and the mystery of Steidten and Newman it becomes difficult to judge Moyes fairly or clearly, IMO. Whilst I think most would accept Moyes cannot be blameless...

His passing has abandoned him. He had time and space to feed his forwards in this game but his passes were flubbing. These were balls that from last fall you’ll see all over West Ham highlight reels To be fair, his passing has always been a bit hit and miss. His ability to lose the ball in dangerou...

I was reasonably entertained first half. Should have been 2-0 early doors when Antonio and Paqueta both missed sitters. Not half chances, sitters. They score with pretty much their first attack where we gifted them their goal. To be fair, we put out a very attacking side and pressed high up the pitc...

I didn't name any names, but nice of you to put your name forward. Again.
Condescending and patronising? Yes I agree, but (in my defence) it's hard to be otherwise in a forum. But yes, guilty as charged.

Let’s not go over the top here.

er...no. It was clear to everyone it was serious. About 6-8 physios on (Including Fulham's), the mobile trolly, stretchers etc. What is difficult to understand.? Very poor form by their lot.

i'd say atleast 80% of the support must be deluded at this point then. Support or followers? I believe most of the negativity is from people who follow the club, but I wouldnt classify as supporters. Look at the match day thread. Same posters, obviously don't go to games, repetitive and tedious pos...

:clap: How have we got to the point where referees are deeming this kind of contact to be a penalty? Madness. Looked a nailed on penalty for me. Unlucky perhaps, but player definately moves him arm to ball and you can see by his reaction he knows it. As for the 2nd one, once again VAR managing the m...

I don't think he enjoys playing moyesball he looks really frustrated most of the time ,give him more of the ball with better options with more attacking football then I think we would see the best of him ,he certainly isn't in Di Canios league, but to be fair Di Canios team was alot more attacking....

:heart: You need good movement to do this Paqueta does it for Brazil as he has players moving into space for him West Ham don’t do this so he is left trying to keep the ball whilst looking for a player to show for him In my opinion this is due to the managers rigid style which discourages players mo...

After Thursday, this is a tough game both physically and mentally. I wouldn't be surprised if Moyes makes some changes because of that, rather than the upcoming game next Thursday.

Strangely, perhaps, I can see him starting 3 or 4 from the bench. Possibly Johnson, Aguard, Ings and Phillips.

Have to partially disagree with you. The defensive aspect of the plan, to neutralise Leverkusen's threat, worked superbly for 80 minutes. But, and it's a big "but", I don't believe it was part of our plan to only register one serious assault on the Bayer goal. The counter attacking elemen...

Let me clear. In spite of my views/comments on the financial health of the club, Sullivan, as an owner, is a manipulative and self centered egomaniac. Its all about him and (frankly) f**k everybody else. I would suspect he a sociopath with no self awareness. I believe (and I know others will not sup...

But who is happy with a defender coming on to help a 1-0 defeat> Aguerd against Kudus is beyond help. Cornet/Ings?

Pay attention to your elders.Your comment is fundamentally untrue. Plus, your reply is unintelligible.

Please let me know when you have something intelligent to say.

So, despite your £,0000s weekly salary, the thousands of travelling fans, the tens of thousands of other fans, your team mates and manager, you would choose to be a c**t?

I believe that the 'Moyes Out' guys and gals will get their way at the end of the season. He appears to have engineered a good departure for himself by announcing there is a contract on the table to sign, which puts Sullivan on the back foot (goodo) and he (Sullivan) is largely not in control of the...

I was not entertained. We defended heroically, but gave away two preventable goals from set pieces. That isn't tiredness, just poor defending. Our inability to keep the ball when we finally have it was our undoing, yet again, along with our painfully small squad of 13 players. Leverkusen are a good ...

I only really started following us properly in the season we were last relegated, I had paid attention before but I was only young, didn't really care that much. So I started with BFS, enjoyed that season in the championship, was glad to see BFS go, especially after the earcupping. I think just lik...
