Which competition do you prioritise?

Submitted by Brooking is a legend on Sat, 04/07/2015 - 12:49

An easy, glib answer is all competitions. But seriously, that isn't realistic this season. I loved seeing our youngsters on Thursday but now I've had time to calm down, it's time to think rationally. Once the preliminaries are out of the way, the EL is going to provide stiffer competition. Remember how Allardyce got slated when we went out of the Cup against Forest for fielding a team youngsters? Well that is going to be necessary this season again. I'm sure the fans will be more sympathetic to Slav, but, which competition do we field the youngsters in? The League Cup will come along, which is arguably out easiest route to silverware. For me, I love the F A Cup more than anything. However, we absolutely have to maintain Premier League status this season and getting off to a good start in the Premier League is critical. Come August and September, the matches begin to come think and fast. Our squad size isn't much bigger than last season. Hopefully Slav mixes it around in the EL and the LC, keeping our best team available for PL games and FA Cup games. But that's just my opinion. I have to say, it's great to have to worry about such things!

I got my fathers day prezzy yesterday, the new home shirt. At first I was really impressed, the design is traditional with respect to the first shirt seen at the Boleyn and I have always prefered the claret body and the blue sleeves. However, it just hit me that the Blue is totally different to the past shirts. It is in fact Turquoise! I guess I am just the typical West Ham fan.... never happy unless I am moaning :o) Good performance last night and a good result....COYI's!!!!

I`m absolutely gutted for the whole team to go out of the world cup in such a cruel, cruel way.
They have played with heart and passion that would put a lot of our mens national team to shame. I cannot begin to imagine how poor Bassett felt when her attempted clearance went in off the underside of the bar.
The whole team have earned my respect and gone through the roof in my estimation for their determination and never say die attitude.
I raise my hat to them all.

Thursdays game Sold Out

Submitted by IusedtosupportSpurs on Wed, 01/07/2015 - 07:55

Truly, truly ASTONISHING.

Is there another club ANYWHERE that could have sold out such a fixture?!

YES its only £10 (and £5 for nippers) BUT STILL AND ALL!!! ( just for the record where are all the gobs***** that decry Gold and Sullivan?)!!!!

What a remarkable feat.

If Bilic needed any reminding (and Im sure he didint) about POTENTIAL and what hes got behind him then its been delivered in spades.

Must admit I had (and still do to an extent) about this Comp but certainly the fans are voting with their feet.

HUGE CREDIT TO CLUB.

Hi all, two days to go to kick off, is anybody going? What team will we put out? Is Andy fit to start? Do we give the youngsters a run out? Which of the new signings will play? Surely we can't lose this one. Thoughts.
