I'm coming sunday. Previous appearances include Leics and bournmouth.
Apologies in advance
3rd time lucky! Apologies in advance
Actually, I don't think my wife has ever seen the Hammers win at Upton Park or anywhere for that matter! In my efforts to get her to come with me she saw them draw with QPR 0:0, draw with Aston Villa 1:1 and lose to Fulham 0:3 that was many years ago and she's not been with me since.

That was some free kick! Moses could/should have scored near the end, but one of their players had a cracking effort fly past the post in the first half, so a draw was probably a fairish result. I do like the way we go forward under Bilic, it's fun to watch, something I haven't said about a Premiership West Ham team in a long time.
First half great against a team with zero ambition . Second half it fell to bits with conceding a lucky goal and getting dragged into their style of football.Some seemingly odd subs, a great save from Adrian, Jenks and Moses seem short of confidence, and when Carroll and Jelavic came on we didn't play through midfield anywhere near as well. Not sure what Antonio has to do to get a bit of a run.
An entertaining and frustrating game in equal measure, but two points from twelve isn't ideal.

This time last year: 5th played 14, 24 points. Now 8th played 14, 22 points... 
There are also similarities in the results - last season we'd also beaten Man City & Liverpool (albeit both at home), had good away wins at Palace and Burnley, disappointing home defeats to spuds & S'hmpton (home) and a tedious 0-0 draw w/ Villa at home. We also should have had 25 points if the Nolan goal @ OT had stood
I recollect we started to slide away around this time last year and the disappointment with Allardyce got worse. Almost as if the great start (and we were like a different team from 2013 with Downing playing some great football) made the 2nd half of the season even worse. Expectations increased and the way we fizzled out to finish 12th was the end for BFS. I am expecting much more fight from a Bilic side! and still predict a top half finish being in a position to finish 8th or there abouts going into the last few games.
