We are starting to string a

We are starting to string a few good passes together

46 minutes

Well that was 46 minutes of abject DULLNESS!!! At times it sounded like they were playing in a morgue.

Its worse than a morgue mate...

The place only gets going when we score & that was in the 90th minute!!By that time thousands of fans had left anyway,nothing to do with queueing up to get home,i believe most of them cant wait to get out of the place!!Monday night football under the lights,even for a score a ticket,cant muster a good atmosphere at this place.Toxic dome,id call it the toxic Groan!!Especially when its amplified,there is one almighty sigh from the new type of westham "FAN",it beggars belief the whinging at this place...the famous east end banter has been substituted for the TOXIC GROAN!!

Stoke have got some big

Stoke have got some big buggers at the back. Is that why we have been a bit tentative with our crosses? We need to get the ball in the box a bit more, see what they are made of.

TBH I'll settle for a draw

Stoke will take some encouragement from that first half. We don't seem to have quite the sort of dominance needed to break them down. Been all West Ham, however. Chicha in second half? or Andy Carroll? Do you try to go over Shawcross and Indi or do you try to go through? How to score a goal, that is the question.

A point wouldn't be the worst

A point wouldn't be the worst result but this stoke team is nervous every time we get near their box and should walk away with all 3 points.

Mario and Fernández

To lightweight against Stoke

Yes agreed when i first saw

3 goals chalked off unbeleveable

Hart in mouth again

After all that I'll take the point

But it's hard to see another point in the season. Is 35 enough?

You must be joking ashes we

You must be joking ashes we'll wipe the floor with the gooners

That's two points dropped.

That's two points dropped. Substitutions were about 10 minutes too late

Take a draw

But should have won, by far the better side in the second half. Ref let them disrupt the game with fouls and no yellow

totally agree.

and the offside decisions were marginal.

hart

earned us a point at Chelsea cost us two against stoke ?????

yes..

though tbh if we hadn't gone behind we might not have put Osteoporosis on.

Second half it was all West

Second half it was all West Ham until who else but Crouch had to nick one in. But our super sub Carroll saved our skin. Out of the 3 disallowed goals two Fernandez's and Chicharto should have stood. Arnautovic has walking away, but he should have moved sideways and away from the goal. Still should have stood as he did not touch the ball and the keeper was well beaten. All the same West Ham can get something out of Arsenal, Everton and even Manu United. If West Brom can take 3 points out of Man U, why not West Ham? Good to see West Ham play with some spirit in spite of that unlucky gaffe by Hart to let Stoke take the lead. Thankfully, the Burnley scenario did not play out!!

Agreed, toronto

how many teams get three goals chalked off in one game on close decisions like that?

Problem is the keeper eyeline

Problem is the keeper eyeline was blocked. Right decision in my opinion. Arnie should have been getting out quicker when we applying that much pressure and be looking towards goal ready to go again. We're sometimes too slow to react in those situations.

Kouyate might just be one of

Kouyate might just be one of the worst players ive ever seen in a west ham shirt. Michael Oliver is a disgrace.

Andy Carroll to the rescue

Andy Carroll to the rescue again.What a shame that he cant stay fit for a whole season.

The whole season ? A wet

The whole season ? A wet fortnight would do

Went to the game tonight...

A flat performance & an even flatter atmosphere,so no change there then at Scaffold Towers!!

Can someone explain to me

Can someone explain to me what value 2RR's adds to our club. She's fluffed her lines with that tweet and really needs to show a clean pair of heels and walk on out ASAP

Rice and Cresswell,

were great, Zabaleta, and Noble were good, Arny was ok, but on his own until Chicharito came on. Kouyate, Fernandes and Mario, were poor. Would be nice to see Arny and Carrol up front and Lanze looked good for his short spell. IMO 1 more point will do. COYI
