West Ham United 25/26 relegation thread

[muskie]

Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

[stubbo-admin]

As was stated in the match thread by Mex, we have three remaining targets for the season:

- Get 5 pts more than Forest over the next 18 games
- Get 1 pt LESS than Burnley
- Get 7 pts LESS than Wolves.

Those are the only targets now.  Shows just how important the game against Forest is on Tuesday.  Win that, and it's outperform them by 2 pts over 17 games. Lose that, and it's 8 pts over 17 games.

Huge huge game. Everyone pretty much still has to play everyone. So it's a pretty level playing field if somehow we shithouse a win against Forest on Tuesday. 

[Sweep]

We're not quite done yet.
Lose to Forest and we definitely are.
We are rapidly catching up Wolves in negative goal difference.
The only hope is if Forest completely fall to bits for the rest of the season, I cannot see any of the other teams being remotely in touch.

The only saving graces at the moment are everyone else down there is losing as often as us - Wolves are the only team in the bottom 4 showing any upward trend in performance and now results - we have four starters to come back in, and the transfer window is open. 

Yesterday's team is definitely going down.  Upgrade a few of them with returners and signings and then hope we're four points better than Forest from the last 17/18 games.

Latest odds
wolves 1/200
Burnley 1/33
West ham 1/3

Forest 4/1
Leeds 8/1

Bournemouth 25/1
Man City 25/1

Ignoring the overound, 75% chance we go down.
4% chance we get saved by a man city points deduction.

No fucking leaders

No fucking fighters

Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles would be better in defence than Mavro and Kilman and Ray Charles is dead.

FUCK OFF!

[southbankbornnbred]

We’re down. It’s just a case of what the fuck we do about that in May.

Nothing about this club will change until Sullivan goes.  Somehow, relegation needs to be the catalyst for his exit.

[Fauxstralian]

I have not seen a single team that I would have any confidence in us beating 
We’ve just lost 3-0 to the last team you thought we MIGHT beat
Every chance we will do a Wolves and not win in half a season
Done? Obviously 
And we will continue to sink until Sullivan & Brady go

[ragingbull]

The Titanic has got a better chance to get out of this.

[Takashi Miike]

an owner that loves shit negative managers, another manager that hates forwards, and a team/squad that clearly couldn't give a shit. what happened to the cunts that judge people to be fit and proper owners? did they forget to do the test in 2010?

[Mad Dog]

When we were targeting these 6 "easier" games it was obvious they were targeting us.  Because we are truly shit 

[boleyn8420]

Not quite done yet. Are you kidding, 1 point from Fulham, Brighton and Wolves and you don't think we're done, how many points do you think we will get from Arsenal, Liverpool  Man City etc. Done

[RBshorty]

Even if we got out of this. (Which we won’t.) We would be back here again in 365 days time. The only question left. Will relegation be confirmed before Easter.?

[smartypants]

Dyche will be bang up for this game now, this is exactly the type of match he’s made for. We really lacked a leader today and the only 2 players (and maybe Bowen) who might be able to drag us over the line are Paqueta and Soucek and I’m far from confident either will. It’s a sorry state of affairs with a team made up from about 4 different managers. Today was sadly predictable, the only bit I got wrong was that Larson didn’t score. My poor (autistic) 11 year old son really couldn’t understand what was happening today or why I’d made him watch it in what is easily the worst away end I’ve ever been in.

That is what's frustrating me so much because if we act sooner we could give ourselves a better chsnce of staying up but this Club when it needs to act quicker drags it heels and when it needs to give it more time they act too hastily. Classic BS regime. 

[Come On You Irons]

If we do get relegated this season it will be our sixth relegation from the top flight since World War Two.

Chelsea has been relegated from the top flight four times since World War Two, while Tottenham has only been relegated once and Arsenal hasn't been relegated at all.

We really are a joke compared to those three clubs. Held back by successive incompetent, unambitious and useless owners.

Points needed to stay up is dropping like a stone because none of the teams down there can buy a win, except Wolves against us.

We just wasted a great opportunity to get someone else in before Fulham after the Man City defeat and had 3 very winnable games against Fulham and Brighton at Home and also against 1 of the worst Teams in Prem history without a win until today. Opportunity chucked in the bin for thinking this tit would actually somehow miraculously turn it all around that resulted in just 1 measily point. 3 winnable games now gone and I wouldn't put it past these divs blindly keeping him in charge of a disaster fixture next against Forest his former Club that dumped him on us.

[nychammer]

i think we just need to approach every game like we cant be arsed now and get it over with. 

Please no hope or rally in form. At this stage hope would be worse than just accepting our fate and having it confirmed sooner than later so we can plan for the Championship. 

The one consolation will be seeing that puerile cսnt sullivan getting what he deserves and laughing at the 10K that will show up and rattle around n that next level bowl we play in 

[muskie]

We are dead and buried.

Nuno truly is a clueless cսnt.

[Mad Dog]

Put this on the match thread, but its probably more appropriate here

What annoys me about all this is these cunts still get paid whether they bother or not.   And not just paid they get paid per week double what a lot of fans make in a fucking year. And thats every fucking week. And if we go down, they'll just get a transfer elsewhere and keep makig a fortune.   WE will be the ones left watching the club crumble in a half empty stadium in the championship as were in this for the long haul.  I fucking hate professional footballers 

[Westham67]

I reckon there's a good chance that cheapskate Sullivan will not back Nuno with transfers and that Nuno will throw his toys out of the pram and fuck off.

He aint gonna walk, why would he when he can pocket millions by being sacked, which I don;t think he will be as that would make the board look really stupid after LOSER LOP and COCK PISS.

If I were the board then as soon as relegation is almost certain I would be approaching CARRICK as I think that could work in the Championship with more youth players.

Surely there must be a clause written in to crack heads contract about relegation? If not thats stupidity on the boards part.

This must be the culmination of all the intrigues of the CARRICK DeAL

I go to football to enjoy myself. I'm struggling to remember the last time I enjoyed a game. That could all change if we win the next two relegation battle matches, knock out QPR, maybe starting a cup run and then take 3 points from north London.

Is that asking too much?
 

Yes .... next question
