It happens in every game

Mate,not sure what game your watching but this is the worst ref I've seen in a long long time & grealish is playing him,the sport is becoming a joke

That tug would of never

That tug would of never pulled a on running player down.

Absolutely .. expletive on

Absolutely .. expletive on here moaning about Grealish cheating ... then Rice tugs a shirt, equally illegal, no matter how soft ... can’t have it both ways... Rice should not be complaining.

Cheating c*nts

Deserved that

Got what they deserved,and

Got what they deserved,and fucking missed it lol!!!!

I wish this ref would

swallow his f*****g pea!!!! Foul after foul given against US. We’re letting them dictate too much again.

We look worn out,just hanging

We look worn out,just hanging on.

More than a slight tug there

On Haller,no foul given

Sorry Villa

Its offside,get used to VAR,like the rest of us

Ha ha ha,no goal,just deserts

Ha ha ha,no goal,just deserts.

A good three points

But we did our best to lose this one. We really need to do better next time out.

Not played great but will take that

Up against a shite ref & a cheat its just desserts imo

Glad the cheating

b******s got what they deserved!!! NOTHING.

Thats the worst ref ive seen

Thats the worst ref ive seen for a long time,and a team full of cheating fuckers.....Great win COYI!!!!!

I think Villa

Were robbed, we did not deserve a draw let alone win.

Big deal,about time it went

Big deal,about time it went our way,we have always been on the receiving end,they cheated their way all round the pitch,they deserved nothing.

Yep spot on Essex

They maybe a half decent team but the theatrics from them takes away any respect I might have had for them,combine that with a ref who should never be near the prem,its about time we got a bit of good luck for once

Well said mate,i just cant

Well said mate,i just cant believe that ref to go along with the theatrics,he wanted them to win,and regardless we werent on top form,we still scored the goals,and thats what matters........I tell you another thing,if we were all there last night,it would of kicked off outside big time,the makings was all there.

Your right mate

I was thinking the same during the game - grealish, the ref & then terry pipeing up,1 of them would have been lynched!! Lol

yes agree

they were able to kick us all over the park but if we so much as brushed against them they got a free kick and was very surprised by Grealish falls over to easily he'd be better off carrying on and making things happen!!!!! not a great game by us but it was the type of game we would have lost last season hey we are up to 5th yes 5th C>O>Y>I

Prior to the penalty, both

Prior to the penalty, both the Referee and his Assistant missed the deliberate handball against the Villa player. I remember last season the manner in which the VAR went back to give a handball against Rice well outside the box before the West Ham goal was disallowed. Not sure why West Ham were just falling back very deep today after they went ahead? They made Villa look like Barcelona. But I disagree that we did not deserve this win. Moyes will do anything to grind out something out of a game and rather have 3 points looking second best than being unlucky when looking like the better team!!

If as Martin Tyler said, Grealish is the best entertainer around

at the moment then he’s very easily pleased. If I want to watch grown men throwing themselves to the floor at every opportunity, then I go to the circus to watch the clowns!

Glad someone else notices

Glad someone else notices this pxxxk bobby ,he waffles on and on about nothing ,the sky sports commentary team would want to catch themselves on a bit ,if its not Smith its stones in his gob Gallagher and bt sports arnt much better , bleedin macmenemenmenem ,they love the sound of their scouse voices ,im fast loosing the will to live when their on ,bleedin screeching noise they make.

Tyler is loosing it. In the

Tyler is loosing it. In the first 5 minutes he called their keeper Fabianski!

Also we have much better entertainers at West Ham.. Three clowns that make up the board!

Should have seen the smirk on

Should have seen the smirk on Grealish's face when he was awarded that free kick outside of the box. But if you analyse his dribbles with the ball, he always puts his foot or body in the way to "shield" the ball. So any touch on him when trying to make contact with the ball, and he goes down easily even if it was an innocuous one. He is good at rolling around as if to say hey that was definitely a yellow or even red card tackle. Then he is back on his feet just moving freely. This referee bought it time and time again!!

West Ham have conceded the

West Ham have conceded the third least goals against in the Division. Only Spuds and Chelsea have conceded less goals. Also, West ham has the 4th best goal difference. Again the same two teams and Villa have a better goal difference. The Season is getting more interesting. Big game next Saturday against ManU. Another grinding win could mean a place in the top 4. Yummy!!

Some would say we got out of

Some would say we got out of jail tonight ,others might say lady luck might be changing her mind about us,either way were gunna have to improve on Saturday ,we completely lost our shape tonight ,we played them off the park for the first 15 mins and for the rest of the match ,barring the winner we weren't at the races

Still West Ham and Man U are

Still West Ham and Man U are currently the only 2 teams to have won the last three straight games in a row. These records of 4 straight wins is bound to end next weekend for either of these two teams when they play one another. But what favoured West Ham is that the previous top five teams all failed to win this weekend. Finally Karma is on the Hammers side as there are just 4 points separating West Ham from the top 2 teams!!

Bang bang goes those not stop

Bang bang goes those not stop hammers,scappy but finding a way to win,after all is that what champions do ;)

The ref was dreadful

But our defence was lacking they opened us up far to easily Fabianski saved us on a couple of accession

Sorry mate, but our defence

Sorry mate, but our defence was mostly solid and impenetrable bar a deflected shot...I personally think we have way too many left footed players who cannot kick with their right foot at all...we fly up the field only to stop mid thrust to check back as they cannot kick with the outside of their foot s accurately as Ric would with his right foot for instance...fcking annoying to say the least.
The ref had to be a Brummie as he gave us Sweet Fanny Adams and them everything. I won't go on as we have the 3 points bagged...roll on Man You

Not a great day at the office

Not a great day at the office but I take it! Makes a change for us to get the rub of the green!

True buddy.. the Heineken bar will just have to wait!

Lets hope you dont have to

Lets hope you dont have to sit down and have a 3 course meal mate lol.

Brilliant!

That would be fun!

Watching the game with the

Watching the game with the volume turned off is the only tolerable way of watching the Sky presentation, not only did Tyler need oxygen to keep blowing smoke up Villa's back sides, but the droaning negativity of Alan 'I hate everyone who plays now because they earn so much more money than I did' Smith is too much to tolerate! Why on earth Sky persist in using him is incomprehensible, perhaps he used the same negotiator with Sky or his deal that Wheel Chair used for his!

tyler

Can sky put this waffling num nut out to pasture,he just never stops waffling, for gods sake man shut up!the use of every meanless stat, he is driving me crazy,he was around when the great Brian Moore commented on matches,just let you watch the game,Tyler when he did the liverpool game saying that Curtis Jones can be turned into a anagram of "scouser" ffs, please can sky put in a non-commentary button and just listen to the crowds and the players
