According to a football 'super computer's' most recent findings West Ham United are almost certainly going to avoid being relegated, but only just and at the expense of one of the club's previously managed by current incumbent David Moyes. Southampton look done and dusted and only a miraculous run of results can possibly save them, Everton are teetering on the brink as are Leeds and Nottingham Forest!

Whether it is liked by fans or not, West Ham United have become serious title and major competition serial killers in the Premier League over the last few seasons. Sunday's draw against Premier League leaders Arsenal has severely dented their chances of winning their first major title since Arsene Wenger left AND before!

News that summer signing Gianluca Scamacca is about to go under the knife will have been received by Hammers fans like an invitation to attend a 'speed awareness' course as a result of driving at 25 in a 20 MPH Zone!

The long standing injury curse that has afflicted the club for years refuses to go away, with the Poltergeist seemingly hell bent on ensuring the first team will ALWAYS be devoid of having an our and out striker.

Robert Frederick Chelsea Moore OBE (should always have been Sir) was the greatest captain the English national side ever had and the most successful! He was taken far too early, finally succumbing to bowel cancer despite a brave fight and helping to pioneer modern immunotherapy procedures along with his Oncon team at hospital.

The football community came together to send the great man off when he died at the ridiculously early age of 51, his grace, pace and style were the personification of all that was good about the game and his reputation remains untarnished to this day!

Hammers fans of all ages are well used to the club being a bit of a circus, but there are some media outlets that go above and beyond when it comes to 'driving' traffic to their websites with spurious 'Hammers News'! Some might say"more fool those who follow the bait", whereas others might allude to the fact that fans will look at virtually anything relating to their club, particularly during times of crisis.

Fulham: Leno, Robinson, Cedric, Tosin, Ream, Palhinha, Reed, De Cordova-Reid, Pereira, Willian, Vinicius.
Subs: Rodak, Tete, Duffy, Wilson, Cairney, Solomon, James, Lukic, Diop.
West Ham:Fabianski, Coufal, Cresswell, Zouma, Ogbonna, Rice, Soucek, Fornals, Bowen, Ings, Antonio.

Playing an ageing forward on his own as part of a 4-2-3-1 line u is Dino Moyes' only option when he sets his team up apparently, either Michail "I can't stop falling over" Antonio or Danny "I look older than your Uncle" Ings are his 'go to' players. The Hammers manager has managed to absolutely destroy the confidence of Gianluca Scamacca, just as he did with Sebastien Haller, which has seen the £35 Million summer signing pick up a series of 'niggles' and viruses since his arrival.

Hammers fans who are normally notoriously 'robust' when it comes to dealing with the fall out of under performing managers were in no laughing mood Yesterday evening, despite their usual gallows humour they were finding it very hard to laugh.
