It's 22 years today that SIR Bobby Moore was taken far too soon, only 51 yrs...RIP Mooro..

Maybe I've turned into a grumpy old man but what have The Hammers got to do to get a bit of praise on Match of the Day. Last night it was all about how poorly Spurs played, heaven forbid it had nothing to do with how well the Hammers contained them and yes BBC they actually scored 2 goals and they hardly got a mention. Am I right or should I just chill out.

After two back to back away games, I have to say how amazing we are as fans. We took over West Brom last weekend and sang our hearts out (well at least till the 4th goal and sending off). Yesterday we out sang and out supported at WHL, and I can't remember Spurs being quieter. I don't know if it came across on the box, but we just were a constant noise. There must be some poll to decide the best fans in the league? It would have to be a club that is mainly supported locally. I mean Man U or Liverpool taking 5000 to a southern ground is no mean feat as they all live in Guildford anyway. As for the game, we were fantastic and surely the Nolan penny has dropped!? The Cole substitution was bizarre and where I think Allardyce is so stubborn, is that he fills his bench with all the players we would probably get rid of, out of his loyalty to them. Forget the substitution for a minute, before the game he picked Cole, Nolan, Jarvis, Demel, Collins and JOB to potentially change a game. Really? Why no Poyet, , Lletget, Zarate or Lee? Surely some young fresh legs would've been better? If he could honestly release this obsession with trying to prove he's right about certain players, I think we could go far. Allardyce will never accept the fans and neither they with him, but if he keeps putting out a team like that to start, then I think people will bury their feelings and we could get more cracking performances like yesterday.

the reason we only came away from that sesspit with a point is so clear , our crap bench , just have a butchers at it compared to theirs , at one point we effectively went down to 9 men, Jarvis hardly touched the ball , and the only time Cole touched it was to give away a free kick in a dangerous area , Noble was a huge loss ,i dont know about you but im starting to go with the idea that the cups dont mean a toss anymore , otherwise how can you hold up that performance with the heap of shite last week , we can only go on now and try and get rid of the inconsistency , get rid of Cole Jarvis and Nolan , every time Cole come on the performance goes tits up , the players just dont have any confidence in him , and their not the only ones
