West Ham Online

Well, after the false dawn of Nottingham Forest, and coming crashing back down to earth against Palace, we sit 4 defeats from 5 for the season so far. 

Potter is under increasing pressure (despite the usual 'we back the manager' horse shit from the Club) and it's clear that "contingency plans" are being established, with a series of uninspiring names being thrown into the public domain....Bilic, Dyche, Nuno, O'Wall...the real next level fraternity of the Football Manager commuity.

With protests planned before the game (see here for details if you want to join) it will undoubtedly be an interesting atmosphere at the toilet bowl.

This looks like a bad game to run into at this juncture, with the Nigels being proficient at corners, and having concended only once all season.  Only a win is really good enough, but a draw looks like it will buy him a trip to Everton to take on the Moyes millstone which continues to sit heavily round the necks of West Ham.

If Potter has a brain, he'll go not just for the win in this game, but for some vibes as well, with a selection that at the very least inspires interest. Unfortunately I suspect JWP is first name down, Hermansen continues his demonstration of why you don't stick a midget in goal, and Summerville misses out.

Wan Bissaka is out with a nasty case of the shits, Soucek starts the three game ban, but other than that we're expected to be at "full strength".  No doubt there'll be a temptation to look to match up the Palace formation with a return to 3 at the back, but it feels this would be a mistake.

Predicted Lineup:Subs:  Areola, Todibo, Igor, Scarles, Irving, Rodriguez, Summerville, Guilherme, Fullkrug

Predicted outcome: West Ham 0 - 2 Crystal Palace (Mateta 2)

Fucking hell. Based on the amount of empty seats you'd have thought the boycott was today

bright enough start, can we make it count?

The line-up gives us half chance of creating some chances, unlike last week's.
 

Potts didn’t play last night for the 21’s and not in the squad
Understand Earthy was outstanding, HAS to be a better option than JWP
 

How long since a JWP Free kick has led to a goal…???

Nuno will be watching very closely for sure.

Potter’s Last Stand…

his Pre Match Press was cringeworthy as usual…

A well beaten Manager…

Potts not even on the Bench, just Scarles from the Academy on the Bench who he's also been ignoring playing. Academy hating cսnt.

Deserves to go for picking JWP if we lose. Actions of a madman.

He's had a swing at it but has shown he is willing to die on the JWP Hill and surely will. Cheerio Potter, West Ham end another managerial career!

I think they have to get 'Brown Moyes' in regardless of the result today.

​​​Cant see us getting anything im afraid. Cock Piss will play mads, jwp, rodriguez i reckon. . I wonder when Big Ig will make an appearance. So a loss followed by some sort of rampage i expect.

Well he’s surprised me by dropping Hermansen, but as predicted his boyfriend JWP makes the starting line up
 

If he plays JWP it'll be like signing his own death warrant especially if we lose.

Only positives from this game is if we win we win and if we loose hopefully Potter will closer to the tin tack. 

Anyone got any tips about streams? It's getting harder and harder these days to find one that works.

WE WILL DEFEAT CRYSTAL PALACE BY TWO GOALS TO ONE. 

STAND ON ME.

0-2.
I can't see us creating much to worry their defence, and I can't see us keeping a clean sheet. 

No Soucek is a positive, but Palace are a far stronger side these days, such is the legacy of the pimp. Another dose of depression at home. 1-3

Struggle to watch this one. Although that “10 top goals against Palace” video made me realise that we often have good games against them so may make the effort. Have given my ticket to my son’s mate though. Dont feel so guilty about not attending the protest as he will be my proxy. 

We could probably do with a loss to force the sacking today. But I have a feeling they will snatch something and get Potter a stay of execution that will just prolong our agony. But if he persists in playing the midget in goal it could be another goal fest.

Would rather watch the World Athletics champs than that boring frustrating crap.
