4th at Christmas? 31 points at Christmas?

Am I in some sort of parallel Universe, where everything is upside-down & back-to-front and in reality we are 17th with 13 points?

[Hammer67]

I'm off out on the sauce later. I'm gonna wear as much claret and blue as I can find in the house.

Usually Xmas bashes are spent having the piss ripped by all and sundry, well not this fking year.

COYI.

Merry Xmas to all here.

Barcelona we're coming for you...

Enjoyed that; Leic started well but after cracking goals from AC & Downing was only going to be another win.

Fourth at Christmas, fk me!

COYI!!!

I'm actually able to make this game having missed the last few, so you can all blame me if we lose. I'm also taking my girlfriend as one of my mates can't make it, it's her first time at UP so I'm expecting a defeat

That's the talk of an experienced Hammer.

My wife's been three times; two 0:0 draws and a 0:3 loss to Fulham in the FA cup a few years ago. I lost my rag and she won't come with me anymore. Probably just as well...

It's just not the same without having something to whinge about, I've never known it happen before (and I'm 51).

Oh you must remember 85/86 surely? What a team that was...

Just checked and we were third at Xmas that season on equal points to the scousers; never been this high in PL at this stage.

I'm getting the missus a season ticket

Wrapped our big screen fk off tele in tinsel tonight in preparation for Sky Sports to splash up the table, took a photo when it came on and sent it to thirteen Spud,Arse and Scouse supporting mates..... and if it wasn't for the homer linesman when we played Manure three more people would have got the pic as well!!
Remember this lads, it ain't gonna happen very often.




One other thing,
As it's goodwill to all men at this time of year,lets congratulate Mo' on finally being able to say he played for a top four club.

Work permit granted for Doneil Henry who'll now join WH on 01 Jan - I know nothing about him aside from him being Canadian & a CB.

Wonder if we'll ever see him play

I guess that depends on what Reid decides to do.

[TCEvo]

I don't think he's been bought as a direct replacement for Reid (who I think will stay this season but move in the summer).

...Reid (who I think will stay this season but move in the summer).

Indeed, I think he hankers for top 4 football

[TCEvo]

Wants to avoid Europa League.

[RichB]

Best not join Arsenal then.

Can't see it on my usual source (the bbc) but my mate just told me that Alex Song isn't going to the African Cup of Nations.

Merry Christmas

Yep, confirmed earlier on - excellent news.

Happy Christmas all, few points over Xmas period would be nice.

[bad company]

Looks like Song was not selected by Cameroon - http://www.teamtalk.com/west-ham-united/9619210/Af...

Time to head off to Stamford Bridge, here's hoping we can give it a go and come away with at least a point today. COYI!
