West Ham United v Manchester United

Injury crisis, what crisis? Hammers are bereft of almost half the first team for this vital fixture against cash rich Manchester United. Financial fair play doesn't seem to have quite kicked in yet does it? The haves and the have nots of football just get further apart, and the very ruling that was supposed to level the playing field has actually served to broaden the gulf in wealth.
The reality of not being a super rich club is at this time of year how many quality players are on the bench of today's protagonists? Teams that dare to rock the boat are invariably caught out during and after the transfer window, and such is the case for West Ham. Players have been let go or moved on who, with the benefit of hindsight ,might have served a greater purpose for the club had their services been retained.
Team Sheets to follow as usual. -Ed

anybody see that match today ? i know its sacrilege to talk about the white fekers on here but are they poxy lucky or what ? , where do they get them , Bale now Kane , i was just wondering what your opinions of him were , to me he's potential genius , he's got it all , deep runs from mid field , a cracking shot , great header of the ball ( which he really showed today ) and can take a beautiful free from outside the box ( yet he's only their number 2 for this ) if he's not the first name woy rights on his team sheet well i'll go to the foot of our stairs , i'd almost compare him with our Carlton lol

The Manchester United game

It seems likely we will be short in experienced defenders for this game. What should be our tactics? Is there any point following Sam's instincts and trying to stifle ManU's potent attacking force? I say NO! Their weaknesses are all at the back, keeper aside they have looked, quite frankly, rubbish in defence. Let us not allow them to dictate the way this game is played, let's set up as offensively as possible, without being rash (something Sam Allardyce has never been accused of). ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!!!! COYI!

So according to our esteemed leader in his Evening Standard column today, our new sponsor is "Betway". One of those well known, established companies that have no chance of going under. So thats alright then....

FIFA to end West Ham Cup Run

Submitted by moore2come on Tue, 03/02/2015 - 22:02

In the interests of resolving the issue before we're due to play WBA, FIFA have fasttracked their investigation into the possible ineligibility of Sakho playing vs Bristol City.

Clearly this has shades of the Manny Omnoyimni debacle and you just know that we're gonna get shafted as we're West Ham.
Taking off the C&B shades what does everyone think. Should he have played or not and if not do you believe it right we're kicked out of the cup?
