It's all your fault now

That utter nugget Southon has published an article by an anonymous fan called 'John' (aka Gold or Sully) pointing the finger at the teams demise at you the fans, yes you expect too much and don't appreciate how much the board has done

Over to you

A new CandH follower who goes solely by the name of John has stuck his head way above the parapet and asked courageously whether it’s the Irons fans – in part – who need to take a look at themselves in the present dire circumstances

Wat if the problem at West Ham is not the manager, not his team, not the players, not the stadium, not the board – what if it is the fans who are to blame?

O For never backing the team when times are hard

O for never giving a manager time to build a successful long term team,

O to never give the board any credit for what they do for the club,

O for always expecting us to be a top 6 team,

O for not understanding that players are human beings and they can lack confidence and suffer mentally just as we fans do.

By comparison look how Manchester United have fallen from the glory years and yet I was at Old Trafford last year when they went 0-2 down to a Newcastle side near the bottom of the table (sound familiar…..).

But instead of booing the manager and their own goalkeeper, instead of all leaving for an early half time pint to drown their sorrows the fans ALL got behind their team

Any fan who tried to put the a player or the manager down was instantly shouted down by many fans around them telling them to get behind the team. The sang louder and cheered even more every success.

And that support and enthusiasm galvanised the players to respond and raise their game. They won 3-2 with a late goal from Alexi Sanchez – a player who most United fans hated for his lack of contribution and success despite clear talent (sound like Anderson perhaps).

All the moaning and groaning that takes place at the London Stadium only helps to drag the players down further. This club is in the best shape for many many years and we are as close to being serious contenders for a top 6 place than ever.

Even now after this appalling run we still only a handful of points of where we all want to be. Let’s get behind the manager, the team the board and give them that extra nudge to get the results that will see them climb the table.

Roberto is of course a liability at the moment but as bad as he has played, of all the goals he has conceded, a couple of saves in the right place could have given us an extra 6 points and in 6th place in the league would the fans all then be all calling for the manager to be sacked and the board to be outed.

We are playing awful football at the moment and we have the right to be seriously disappointed with that but the second half against Norwich was one of the most exciting plays I have seen from the team in many a year.

And there is time to get this right if we only get behind the manager and the team and give them the help and support they need to recover their form and play the style of football we all want to see. The West Ham Way!

I doubt my comments will be popular and I expect to get a lot of abuse for backing lame ducks but just stop and think about where we are and where we came from and be careful of what you wish for or we could be back watching the dour style of Moyes or god forbid Big Sam.

Can't forgive any of our managers who took orders from above to forget a cup run.

One of the reasons I got banned was because I mentioned the amount of spelling and gramamr mistakes,let alone facts.

CanH said it was only a fans forum,then stated they don't get paid for it and do it for love of the team...yeah right apart from the endless inane adverts all over the site. It probably goes to GandS.

Re: It's all your fault now

Wolves and Leicester are good examples of proper owners running their clubs properly and achieving things in a professional way.
Both are clubs that ,with due respect, have less resources and are ‘smaller’ than us.

I don’t know any West Ham fan who expects us to be Man U, Liverpool or Man City but surely competent ownership could get us competing with Wolves and Leicester.

Re: It's all your fault now

I'm meeting up with three friends we have known since senior school.We are from Dagenham/Romford way and have always followed West Ham .
Out of four of us I'm the only one that still attends our games.

The other three don't go after going to hundreds of games at Upton Park over a forty year period.and loads of always.
I can only comment on my own peers.
My two boys go I think they are the 6th generation of die hard Hammers.
I'm 52 my dad fortunately is still going strong.its a crying shame he wont go to our games at Stratford.
I'm pretty sure we're( West Ham) ain't the only club where it's almost Impossible to see 3 or possibly 4 generations of family going football together without paying through the nose and booking tickets months in advance.
What was once traditionally a way of letting off steam for the working class has turned into a something very different now.
