The Official West Ham United Thread. Vol 2

[coldel]

Adrian has some decent form when it comes to penalties, reckon he would have fancied that. But what shockers, I mean that kick out was going no where, it actually missed the first AM player and found the second one. Second goal to be honest was poor liverpool defending, no attempt to close the guy down, just let him size it up and shoot.

Suspect that all ST's got the same email earlier:

"Due to members of West Ham personnel being in direct contact with the Arsenal manager at our game at Emirates Stadium at the weekend, the Club is taking a precautionary approach and those individuals are now self-isolating, in line with Government health guidelines."

Nice video up on the website of Dean Ashton talking through some of his favourite goals. It made me miss the old ground

[coldel]

Brady repeatedly called up across the press after her article about null and void - I bet all our board would love the season cancelled, total relegation bullet dodged if it is cancelled.

[coldel]

Well, seems like there is a real likelihood of no relegation at all this season...

If you are cooped up inside, I have enjoyed spending 20 mins on this https://youtu.be/sCcZ-uwXem0

I’ll be happy to forget this season. In fact let’s forget 2020 and fast forward to next year.

Me too, but even if it does continue and we do end up going down like we deserve I'll still be at every game I can get to wherever we end up. Can't believe how much things ramped up in the last few weeks, makes the moans about tactics and lack of management seem so petty now haha! My brother in law text me from the pub in Gothenburg on Saturday saying he was having a top arvo, hope we can get back to that soon!

Late yesterday apparently - it'd been unusually quiet on the bad-news WH front recently so it was only a matter of time. Doubt that those encouraged to invest will see their money again.

5-4 game vs Bradford City from 1999/00 season being streamed via YouTube later: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_A91q9ifLk

Ah the classic Lampard Di Canio handbags over the penalty!

Quite a few games are being put up in their entirety at the moment on YT - saw the Noble testimonial game appear the other day all 2 1/2 hours long video if it!

Yep, ref'd as the Intro to his bio, which as I'm at home I could quickly grab:



Also appears that I saved a few Di Canio pieces that I'd forgotten about:

Prompted me to nip to the book case and take out the following and take a snap!

Signed and handed to me by the man himself

Top work!

I'd love to share my signed Bournemouth programme by 'Arry but it's miles away at my folks' house Bloody lockdown!

[TCEvo]

I had a Prog signed by Eggert Magnussen - fortunately he used a felt tip & his sig lasted about as long as his tenure (can't remember the game).

Video circulating on FB of PDC asking for people to respect social distancing whilst wearing a retro west ham shirt and then proceeds to do keepy uppies whilst singing Bubbles. Legend. Wish I knew how to save it down and share it!

[RichB]

I'm not aware because I've not been following football but are West Ham one of the 5 Premier clubs who have furloughed staff?

[TCEvo]

I don't think so (yet), haven't heard the Club mentioned as having done so.

Top man. I wonder how many other foreign players bothered to learn the words to Bubbles?
