The Official West Ham United Thread.

Just got back - enjoyed that; started well, conceded, went a bit flat then kicked their arses back to Wales. Pity we couldn't get a fourth though.

AC looked excellent throughout but Song was immense, Sakho also strong when he came on.

"Barcelona we're coming for you."

COYI!!!

Just home (stopped at Westfield for shopping and to check on our future home). Really enjoed the match and looking forward to seeing some of the incidents again on MOD.

Three wins in a row!

Just got home, looking forward to MOTD! It was quite odd going in to that game expecting to win to put us third. This is the best I have seen us play since I have been a season ticket holder. I know it won't last, but credit where credit is due, Big Sam is a man of his word and if he has the right players he really can coach a team. I was really impressed with Jenkinson today bombing forward, I thought Cresswell got a bit excited on a few occasions when he was in a good position but overall we deserved the 3 points.

There's one in Stratford as well

I have a meeting at the White City one tomorrow though, I hate driving down the A40 in the morning so I'm not too happy about it.

Edit - Whoooooosh, I guess bad company was talking about the OS

Very much this. When we went behind I knew we'd score. Tactics spot on as well taking Valencia off at HT.

Looks like Jenks has done a hamstring again which is annoying.

The difference being that this season the squad is so strong BFS can call on last seasons first team fullback as jenks replacement .

3rd

I can't remember the last time we were this high up at the table at this stage of a season. :ROFL:

[RichB]

Well, I can well remember the 1985/86 season and having checked we actually had a poor start and didn't hit 3rd until game 23. So, never before in my life time...

FA Cup: Away to Everton

[TCEvo]

FFS, of all the fking teams in the fking land why that one.

Concentrating on the league this season.

[bad company]

Well we are overdue a win at Everton.

[TCEvo]

Boring though, third round's about playing teams we don't normally.

That being said FA Cup record against them is actually very good.

Last game before we lose Sakho, kouyate and song to African cup of nations, fk knows why they can't play that out of season is beyond me. fking fifa.

Those odds still aren't generous enough

I saw at halftime that Paddy Power were giving 9/1 on Carroll scoring next so I whacked a cheeky £20 on and the bet came in. So I'll throw a fiver on this with some of the profit I made.

Would you like a calculator for the expected winnings on that bet?

[bad company]

I think we will probably finish up around 7th but at 1000/1 I fancy a £10 bet.
