    never ever thought it would happen but on the 27th February 2016 I will be making my last ever trip to the Boleyn to see us play:-(....sunderland at home not the greatest game I suppose but the added spice of bfs returning should make it fun in more ways than one.
    first match I ever saw there was against stoke city we drew 1-1 both goals in the last 5 mins robson I seem to rmbr putting us in front only for west ham to be well west ham and let in a last min goal...the old north bank was where I watched all my west ham games from tried the west stand it was not for me and the only time in the south bank was that glorious evening we destroyed Newcastle 8-1.....had many ups and downs like we all have down the years but knowing this will be the last time I will walk down green street towards the ground past the market down to the pie and mash shop on the barking road....being herded like sheep back to the underground station maybe I wont miss that but it was all part of the day out to see my team...will not be getting a season ticket for the new ground because my work just does not make it viable for me to fork out for one because of the few matches I can attend so when will I get to see us play live at home(our new home)again I honestly cannot say.....so my last Saturday 3pm kick off could well be the last I see of our heroes in the flesh playing at home.

    Reports coming in emenike signed on loan subject to medical. If true have we made a typical West Ham cock up? Nigeria are not in the top 50 which could make a work permit hard to get. So I'm sure itl get rejected a day or two after the window closes. Also heard yilmaz is due at the club on Friday. So would that mean jelavic is off? Anyone know anything about emenike?

    So you think noble and jelavic are bad, well this lot make them look like cruyff and pele. It's so easy to forget our history but refreshing my memories we have had some awful awful players at the club! For this reason alone I don't think people of my era were ever plastic fans. Anyway cast your minds back since the seventies who would your worst players ever be? I'm looking for nominations and any stories that go with them. Then we will decide our worst ever team. Let's start with goalkeeper, right back, left back and 2 centre halves

    In among the action of what turned out to be a memorable match between West Ham United and Manchester City, one of the last few remaining at the Boleyn Ground or Upton Park as commentators insist on calling it, there was a moment that was lost to most of the media and observers, it was similar to when Pele and Bobby Moore embraced following their epic duel in the Mexico World Cup, each the absolute definition of perfection in their footballing role. Their affinity was borne of total respect, the appreciation of a true artist, and such was the respect shown by Joe Hart and Dimitri Payet to each other as they left the pitch at half time of what eventually was a hard fought draw that either side could have won and had both managers bemoaning their luck. It took a moment of brilliance from England's number one keeper to deny Payet what would have been the goal that he thought was surely in, and that is why they were both able to rise above the bar of professional rivalry, and also rise above their own pride! The bloated and infected Barclays Premier League needs more of the same. - Ed

  • February Points Tally

    Ok with just the FA Cup game at Anfield to go this month, January has gifted us 7 points from our 5 league games. This is the 4th 7point haul month this season. (As an aside I tipped every game wrong back in June).
    After the trip to Anfield we face 3 teams in the bottom 4 in Villa, Norwich and Sunderland and a trip to Southampton. Now I have us down for 3 wins and a loss from those 4 games but looking at the gap opening between the top 4 and the rest and the awful performances of Manure, Febrouary, on paper, offers us the best chance of securing a full points tally with the way we are playing.
    Unfortunately our performances against the teams in the lower half of the table are in stark contrast to the teams in the top and with draws against Villa and Sunderland and Norwich and a win agast southampton (Tips from June for those 3 wins are against the teams we drew with).
    What's everyones thoughts for Feb following our win at Anfield next week?

  • Player Ratings

    Was the bloke who did the Dream Team ratings in the Sun actually watching the game. No Hammers players, not one above 7 out of 10. He gave our mid-field trio 6 each, but the two City Centre halves 7. Is he completely deluded ? He also gave two goal Valencia 7, but 2 goal Aguero 9. But the one that was totally ridiculous was Payett got a 7. I'm almost speechless !!
