On the back of a sh*t display for England U'21's and commiting his future to Arsenal we go and take the cheap option of having him on loan again, dogsh*t Termination clause anyone? Don't care if we've spunked 2 mill on the loan, free up the wages... of course it doesn't work like that, but that has...

Ain't that the truth!

Yeah can't see what that will do seeing as they're the two individuals that organised them for the first half. It's all well and good getting your mates in but when they've only coached at the level of Grays Athletic it's a huge gamble when you're a debutant Premier League Manager with an average c...

I'm hoping for a Julian/Slaven tag-team effort in the dressing room at half time. Need something to knock some sense into the backline.

Must be the only explanation. I'd have still taken Jenko off though... he's done the grand sum of jack.

I made that mistake - on a home game as well. Boy the flak I copped for that...

Not singling you out, it's just that your the last one that's said it. Can we not just enjoy the win, and not make it about Allardyce, because it could be said that without the foundations he laid, today may never have happened. Aside from Oxford and Payet and Ogbonna, that was Allardyce's team out...

A crocked/unfit Alexis Sanchez? Walcott NOT scoring?

Well done everyone who put their money on us... I thought before the game that was going to be akin to setting fire to it. Fantastic performance today, as people are saying, whisper it, but "The West Ham Way" might just be making a return. Oxford looks assured beyond his years, Payet is go...

It just seemed more "up-front" back in the day BMU.WIC, the Cearns never promised us the earth but they delivered a few times in the form of a 3rd place finish, 3 x FA cups, and European CWC win. Maybe it's my claret tinted spectacles.... Boys of '86 aside, born for none of them. Spent mo...

Sadly you're right, does this not prove that as West Ham we are never happy? For me it does, and "Sully specials" or not I'm happy to see any investment in the team. We've done good business so far, had rotten luck with Valencia, the test of the chairs' resolve is now where I would like t...

Throwing any game is a disgrace, throwing a European game is unforgivable For me this stinks of the owners telling the manager he ain't getting any more funds for players, and the manager subsequently throwing the game because we can't afford to be in the competition I agree with your first point. ...

Kevin Prince Boateng's move to Sporting Lisbon is off and Schalke don't want him (they suspended him in May). Talent definitely, attitude not perfect, but definitely a risk worth taking. We need that kind of player, creative, attacking sparks who play behind the striker and score goals. I like him,...

I've been a staunch defender of Noble on here, but on this performance at least, struggle to see how he's going to hold down a place in the first XI. Awful tonight.

We would definitely have needed Carlton for that one.

I hate those cocky attempts at penos but fair play Diego, it went in.

Into the next round but hardly covered ourselves in glory here. Questions will be asked.

Still, live to fight another day. COYI!

Thought the Albanian was about to do a Poll there. :shock:
