4000 Fans And No Thanks. Disgrace
My journey for Middlesbrough started at 8:45am Wednesday morning, and finished at 4:30am Thursday morning. All calculations being correct, that’s almost a 20 hour round trip to see, quite frankly, some absolute drivvle. I wish I had taken a leaf out of the Boro fans’ book and just stayed at home. The performance was poor, [...]
When We Start Scoring, We Will Go Places
I remember earlier in the season, after Zola’s first few games, when we were putting in brilliant performances but just not getting what we deserved, because of a shyness infront of goal. Games like Arsenal, Everton and even as recently as Chelsea. These were all games where our performances warranted a victory, the effort and [...]
4 Days In and Only A New Signing To Report
So, quality result against Barnsley. Not so much because of the opposition but more because that’s our third win on the bounce and Carlton Cole’s third on the trot. Although the fact it was against a team who could have genuinely been a banana skin made it that little bit more enjoyable. Different seat for [...]
West Ham 2-1 Stoke: From Spineless to Gutsy
On the 24th August this year, I wrote about our spineless performance against Manchester City. I don’t know how well people remember that game, but it was ugly to the eye, we looked devoid of any type of passion for the cause, we looked unfit and inept in all departments. It was a pitiful shambles, [...]
Spurs Fail To Impress. And I was completely wrong.
Perhaps I was a little too optimistic for my own good yesterday. I thought that we would go out an show people what we were made of. I expected us to go out and challenge the game, proving to ourselves that we are just going through a proverbial ‘patch’. Unfortunately, I was completely wrong. We [...]
Was there a sniper at Anfield last night?
Before we review the video footage of the sniper at Anfield last night, can I quickly mention how impressed I was (once again!) with the performance of our boys last night. Like Sunderland, it was always going to be a tough place to go and get a result of any kind. The defence once again [...]
Sunderland 0-1 West Ham: Where Ginger Rules Supreme
So, I won’t lie to you, that’s the most nervous I have been watching a game of football for a long while. It was a massive game, where a loss would have seen us slip into the relegation zone on goal difference. We needed a huge performance from every player on the pitch today and [...]
HALF TIME: Sunderland 0-1 West Ham
Through a deflected Valon Behrami effort, we have taken a 1-0 lead into the half time break. It has been a fast paced, action packed match thus far with a whistle happy referee. We have had to endure several Sunderlan ‘seiges’ on our goal mouth and thanks to some solid defending from Upson and Collins, [...]
West Ham 1-3 Everton: One Dimensional Boredom Is The Way Forward
I am a little taken aback by what I have just witnessed. I actually cannot believe it. Yet again we play fast, decisive, attractive football, take a lead and lose 1-3. I spent 80 of the 90 minutes getting ready for what I was going to say in my report….words like exceptional, tenacious and entertaining [...]
West Ham 0 – 0 Everton: Half Time Report
It has been a real pleasure to see the way we have been playing so far today. Our passing is slick and we are moving with pace and intention….once again though, we just can’t seem to get the ball in the back of the net. Clear opportunities have fallen to Sears on a couple of [...]
