I see that Okoflex,Chesters and Nevers have been recalled from season long loans,good hope they play in the cup this saturday

So what happens if we lose tonight,will he stay or will he go as Joe Strummer once said!Rumours are that they may stick with Moyes regardless of what happens,because he's the type of manager that we would go for in this situation...what a sad state of affairs & to be expected from the BS brigade,this is probably the biggest decision in our history & not to be taken lightly because relegation with this stadium will be a disaster for our club...so thoughts please what would you all do? Shit or bust?

Players like Cresswell, Dawson, Fabianski and Antonio are getting on a bit and we can all see the faults more and more so they need to be bench players at best. Our biggest problem is our leaky defence which puts every other player under pressure. When we where playing well it didn’t matter if they scored first because the confidence was there that we would score especially at home but now as soon as they score we drop our heads and start passing sideways or backwards leaving players like Benny, Bowen and Scammacca out of the equation. Even Decs seems to pass the ball more backward then forward lately. Hopefully Aguerd will be back for Leeds but he will need help and until Zouma is back Dawson will have to do but he seems to have his mind on going home and is not what he’s been for us the last couple of seasons. Against Brentford Moyes dropped Soucek and put Paqueta in his place which is where he plays for Brazil, he’s not a number 10 and until we conceded we played ok.
Looking at last season the shit set in early, Antonio kept flying off to Jamaica and lost his form but Bowen came good, Cresswell kept getting beat by anyone that wanted to get past him and as we all know got himself sent off and suspended and we lost our chance to play Champions league, Rice decided he wanted to go forward more so to cater to him Soucek got told to stay back and he lost his way, Coufal had a hernia because of what should have been a sending off and hasn’t been the same since. We are going to lose Ashby because he can’t get a game, Moyes needs to play the best player in their natural position instead of catering to their whims and things will turn around. We have the players to do it if they can get a chance.

Just heard the sad news,I was 5 when I first watched a world cup - 1970! Went to my first westham game the year before so Bobby Moore was already my hero but Pele was an amazing footballer in an amazing team....for me Pele was arguably the greatest player of all time

Pochettino or Tuchel ?

Here's to nicking 3 points in North London...COYI

Sad news that Wilko Johnson passed away.A local legend in the Southend & Canvey island areas,they don't make many like him!

What's your views fellow orgers? For me this must be the least anticipated word Cup ever,is it to do with dodgy Quatar or mid November? England start on Monday at 1 o'clock in the afternoon?Will you be rushing home early to watch it? I know I wont be!! Iran,USA & especially Wales potential banana skin in all of those, can't see England getting out of the group myself,are we even bothered anymore?its a bit like Westham these days the shine was lost a long time ago

As you all know, we do our best to keep the site running smoothly with as little intervention as is possible, we concentrate on generating enough revenue to finance our super secure server but without inundating our visitors with advertisements. We think we have achieved a near perfect balance however we do once in a while ask the question as to whether we should intervene in 'site spats' or just leave them to run their course. So we ask this question, as members and visitors are you happy with the way the site is moderated or do you think we should be more proactive?
If you have an opinion please let us know, we are planning some restructuring in order to spread the editorial work load which has been borne by the Ed for too long, given he has been unwell he needs time to get better and should be concentrating on that rather than sorting out site problems.

With rumours coming to light that Mason Mount & Reece James being the 2 Premier League stars who are gay. (not yet announced/come out) will Chelsea now be nicking our chant of 'Come on you Irons'! Will we still be allowed to sing it?
