I may not be happy with Potter but I certainly don't wish we still had Moyes. Everyone seems to realise that West Ham fans want to see a better style of football then give us Moyes, Lopetegui and Potter. It's incomprehensible - well, it would be at most clubs.

Sir Alf - I do enjoy your posts. Douglas Bader and Fatty Arbuckle....unusually when famous people are mentioned, I know who you're talking about!

Saw Black Sabbath in 1970 at the King's Head hall, Romford, just before they went to America. Ozzie (although I didn't really know who he was then) was the first person I ever heard swear on stage. My young self was quite taken aback at the time. RIP.

I started going to Dagenham a bit the last couple of seasons, preparing for the day I give up my West Ham season ticket (getting ever nearer). Disappointed they got relegated, same league as Hornchurch who are nearer. This might get me back to Dagenham.

  I can't remember leaving a game so angry. I was happy with Potter's appointment, and although disappointed recently have been content to give him the summer and next season. But he's lost me now. He made, what, 5 substitutions, and every one of them made us weaker. He took off all three of our st...

Very sad news. He was a big part of my early days supporting West Ham. RIP Ticker.

I don't know much about the U21s, but I watched them against Dagenham recently and thought Swyer looked very good: quick, stylish and comfortable on the ball.

Everton are very, very welcome to him. And I don't care where they finish in relation to us.

Anybody know why he played Cresswell ? He is done, how is he still collecting a pay check ffs. we also had Emerson on the field too and the young kid on Scarles on the bench. I know it’s only Ings but why didn’t he start? we offered nothing going forward. I very much doubt we will set up that way a...

Loved his stuff. The horror was often infused with humour, most of what he did was, and I don't think it was pretentious at all, although I rarely understood it. One of my favourite films of his is "The Straight Story" which I seem to remember included in the opening credits something like...

Fuck all this moaning.  I just actually enjoyed a west ham game for fiesta time in bloody ages.  It was FAR from prefect but night and day to recent performances.  We actually passed the ball and finally we actually pressed a team rather than just sit back and let them do what the fuck they want. G...

So many of the goals we concede come from losing the ball in midfield, or sometimes further forward, through poor control or, more often, poor passing. Is there a single player in our squad that could be described as a good passer of the ball?

After 62 years I think this is going to be my last season going to West Ham. I've threatened this many times before but this feels different, and it's not just that we're not doing particularly well, because I'm kind of used to that. It's a number of things just adding up:knowing that while Sullivan...

Presumably, a lot of those who leave early are among the huge amount of tourists/neutrals that attend our games these days, who don't particularly care about the result.

Didn't his dad break Joe Cole's leg?

BBC should rest assured that, decent presenter though he is, MOTD will not lose a single viewer when he goes. Glad he's going but it will probably mean we hear more from him, one way or another.

I will always come on here rather than KUMB - on here you get Vexed, on KUMB
you don't (I imagine).

Yes, RIP Steve Bacon. A huge part of West Ham's history, both himself and the pictures he has left behind.

did it yesterday 

Go under greenway, turn left into pond road and follow it round, the. Past Abbey road dlr and back onto greenway

 

Coming away from a game we've just lost 0-3, seeing a sea of half and half scarves and most people laughing and seemingly unbothered is what depresses me. (And I can't use The Greenway now for 18 months so have to negotiate the crowds and the stewards with their stop/go poles).

Must say I agree with this - regarding both  "Latest WHU News" and the good work setting up this site.

"It's true that one of those two gave us a Play-off Final and the other a European Conference Final, and they were both great days. But so much of the rest of the eight years (or whatever it was) that they were in charge was so horrible, it's not a good trade, for me anyway."

"1962 v Fulham, 2-2. Same season, v Blackburn, lost 1-0. My dad took me and, aged 9, I at last took an interest in football and in fact it pretty much took over my life."

"Vexed: ""People should stop telling other fans what they should be thinking, we've found that very tedious with the Moyes saga."" Absolutely. No one knows their team like the fans of that team. Nobody else should be telling them what they should or shouldn't want, least of all the media and the TV ...
