Bloody annoying when you plan to go to a match only for it to be moved to a different time on a different day well thats the price you pay for taking the tv money.....now the breaking news is that sky are thinking of showing two games on christmas eve..local derbies maybe err no arsenal v liverpool and west ham v newcastle....how ridiculous is that bearing in mind that there will be no public transport what are fans supposed to do? we all love football and the boxing day games but this is getting ridiculous i hope all the teams in the premier put there foot down and say no.
and now for something completely different

- 4 clean sheets in the last 5. & out of 12 pints in the league and a loss by a goal to spurs who are flying and free scoring. We're not performing well and we look all over the place with formations and positioning, yet we are getting results. I believe if we can grind out few more results, we will see a more balanced and set format. I think Sakho has to play as he's got the scoring touch at the moment. Chicarito and Carroll have had enough chances and they're not clicking. Lanzini coming back is a huge filip. He is the glue of the team for me and not having all season has been a major problem for us. We aren't blessed with squads like the Man U's and Spurs of this world so when we lose key players, as we did on Saturday with Antonio, it hurts. Arnautovic I think can come good but he needs to realise that West Ham fans demand more than a few tricks and flicks nowadays, work rate and desire count for everything. My formation and lineup would be
- Hart
- Zabs Reid Oggie Oooh Arfa!
- Obiang Lanzini
- Beast Lil pea Arnie
- Sakho

Wot about our New Shareholder??
Forums:
Heard yesterday that we have a new American shareholder he has bought Eggheads shares which are reported to be about 10% of the club. He's called Tripp- so he should get on with Carrol he's always falling over
Sulkman Saves It At The Toxic Drome
In over 50 years of watching West Ham United we at the Org have rarely experienced such a toxic atmosphere at a home game. Things didn't start well with the initial team selection, as expected Mark Noble retained his place in the starting line up in a 'groundhog day' Kevin Nolan selection syndrome, in other words a club captain who's legs have gone, record signing 'Elbows' Arnoutovic didn't even make the squad!
Electing to play 4-4-2 was supposed to enable Andy Carroll and Chicarito to play up front together as a little 'n' large strike force, they both ended up playing on the wings! Andre Ayew had an absolute mare and had the crowd on his back from the off. Aaron Cresswell celebrated being called up for the England squad by producing a woeful performance, looking a shadow of his former self.
The midfield was so over run, particularly in the first half that people swear Swansea had TWO extra players on the pitch, such was their dominance in possession, fortunately their attacking force were rubbish, a better team would have severely punished the home team so to end up with three points was something of an unexpected benefit.
Captain Mark Noble ran his heart out until Slaven Billic was forced to take him off and bring on Manu Lanzini, the game instantly changed but not before more profligacy from Ayew whenever he had the ball, he really really was poor, but then again he was not alone in playing poorly as virtually the entire team seemed obsessed with passing backwards. It is probably easier to name those players who weren't awful and they were Zabaleta, Hart, Carroll and Reid, that's it, it was only the late arrival of King Authur and the Sulkman that saved the day, however the substitution of Chicarito was met with massive booing from the home fans and a shake of the head from the striker who had only touched the ball once inside the opposition penalty area in the entire time he was on the pitch.
There needs to be a lot of 'clear blue' thinking done during the International break, something has to change otherwise the London Stadium really will become known as the Toxic Drome! - Ed
Reece Oxford back
Forums:
Good to see Reece come back from Bayern Munchen Gladbach must have been difficult for him out there, got to learn the language, away from his teammates, and doesn't even get a game. I think he's done well sticking it out for this long, he's got to be much better off playing on loan over here, and should be playing In the Championship or Div1, I think he will be snapped up. One thing for sure he needs competitive football and I just hope his confidence has not damaged by not playing in Germany, I think this was a bad move putting him out there in the first place
