David Moyes - Taking a knife to a gunfight at West Ham, Part 2

[Barry Rathbone]

Slightly harsh, he was exactly what we needed when he first got here and fitted in perfectly.

Then he got grey.

Same colour as his togger

"If it hadn't been for all the goals we conceded I would have been standing in front of you saying good all round performance".

The man is a gift to comedy.

 

[Abraders]

It was the last kick of the game as I recall.

We have had many dodgy decisions against these teams. That Terry goal in the 97th minute was a disgrace under Martinez. He was miles offside.

The game should have already been over. Miles offside. Joke

 

[Abraders]

Think West Ham fans are sound tbh. They are not the same ilk of the cockneys that follow Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea etc.

I feel for them for two reasons. Firstly having this fella as their manager, but more significantly having that pathetic soulless bowl as their home. They need to bin both off quickly.

Agreed. The bowl is killing them the most imo. Totally bewildered at how that could have been seen as a positive move.

They were crap before they moved there though.

True. However, I suspect that West Ham fans feel like they're completely losing their identity. Teams have to move on, but they do not feel as if it is their home.

They weren't they finished 7th in the final season at the Boleyn. That move has utterly killed them.

That was an anomaly, similar to Burnley finishing 7th. Funnily enough everyone on here seemed to think they’d go up a level and surpass us after they moved.

I think they’re in serious trouble - looking at their remaining fixtures they could feasibly get 0 points from the next 4-5 games

All I do is win

I think West Ham will eventually stay up, but they're making heavy weather of it

[Heavy wether - it just came to mind]

The hammers fans do not share your optimism. It is actually sad to see what they are writing, I mean we have gone through phases like that but there is more than a few people saying nah it'll be fine. To a man they think they are down.

To quote George from Men Behaving Badly, "I just can't see it happening"

Villa, Norwich and Watford are all going to be worse come the end of season surley?

Think Watford will stay up personally. There's more fighters in that team than West Ham.

Watford look like a functional team now. Norwich are probably going. Leaving Bournemouth, Wham, Villa and maybe Brighton(?) fighting it out for the other 2 places. It does depend how many points the others pick up while the hammers have the run of fixture horribilis, if two of those teams get a 5 point gap then it is going to be very difficult for them.

Looking at their remaining fixtures I can't see more than 12 points which will give them 36.
