A recent surge of reports from certain stooges revealed that Nuno was on a tightrope come the end of the Wolves battering and that the inevitable sack was imminent, however, these statements have been quashed given that Nuno isn’t under any current threat.

The Hammers will have confirmed Taty Castellanos and the other forward signing of Pablo, two forwards whom Nuno requested himself, therefore spending €50,000,000 on the manager’s player to sack him a day later is on another level of incompetence… though if any club were to do it, it would be the Ol’ Hammers.

However, it would be abnormal for an action to make logical sense at West Ham and things aren’t always as they seem, it has been said that if the Hammers are to lose to Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night, Nuno will be under an immense amount of pressure seeing as many higher ups were more hopeful for the Brighton, Fulham and Wolves matches, certainly not expecting to get a lone point from the three in total.

Many are hopeful that the signings will be handy dandy and can push the Hammers away from relegation, with no wins in nine matches but a handful of draws picked along the way, Nuno’s closed the bridge to his former side, Nottingham Forest. A victory on the anticipated freezing Tuesday would place West Ham within a point, but a loss would have detrimental results for the table.

What is ongoing in the club is unknown, but at this moment in time, Nuno has 100% backing.

A broken record, a collection of replica CD’s or a satnav that only guides you to misery, you can determine your path as the Hammers handed Wolves their first victory of the season in festive fashion as the home side shipped three past us just 41 minutes in curtsey of cataclysmic clearances, delayed reactions and the gift of a third penalty in the space of in two matches.

The positives in the team? Null and void, doom and gloom, far from fetch, there are no positives to pick out when you face defeat to a team that had yet to win in 19 matches. No individual player had a good game and you just have to feel sorry for the poor buggers who made the trip to Molineux today in the hope we could have our first win in eight… instead, that’s now become nine.

Whilst it seemed typical fashion that West Ham would be the side to give Wolves their first win, most would’ve believed there was an underlying belief that we could’ve gone on to close the gap to Nottingham Forest, but if anything, we’ve gotten further away due to the goal difference!

Many thought that Nuno’s side were unlucky, but no, it’s the comical errors adding up and costing West Ham in the vital moments, Kilman’s mistake against Bournemouth and Brighton, provided stepping stones for them to get back into the game, Scarles’ error against Fulham, Magassa and Kilman making a mistake for Wolves’ second today which ultimately buried the game before the third had even gone in.

From Mavropanos’ and Kilman’s poor errors, to midfield nightmare’s and Summerville’s poor clinical ability, the team at the moment screams dire from the bottom to the top and if you could pin-point a result of dread and ‘where it all went wrong’ if you will, this result will likely become quite a popular choice come the end of the season. Of the few remaining optimists available, you’d be quick to mention that there’s only a four-point gap to safety… but if a sides getting battered by a described “hopeless” Wolves side, then what miracle is required for the utterly desolated Hammers?

An avid Premier League viewer would’ve seen the score this afternoon and believed that Wolves would’ve been a side that was mid-table, perhaps fighting for European Football, given the way that they played and relentlessly pressed Nuno’s side, forcing the Hammers out of the game for both halves with no way of coming back. That’s how far the Cherry’s fallen.

Nuno’s side will waddle over to the Bowl on Tuesday Night to take on Dyche’s Nottingham Forest, which will need to see a miracle occur for the Hammers to have a shot on target… let alone uttering and fathoming the idea of three points.

Three points or three pints? That’ll cost you £18.90, Sir. - LN
