Well it looks like being one hell of a scrap to avoid the drop this season. We were briefly out of the bottom three, only for Moyeschester United to choke yet again - this time at Stoke. So now three points separates tenth placed Stoke and relegation - and that is crazy with more than half the season in the can!
What's even crazier is that our survival could now depend on an appeal to Carroll's red card. Nolan's two goals today showed how important the pairing are likely to be - and one without the other is about as useful as a single chopstick. Laudrup has sportingly said that the red card was harsh and hopefully that will help - and given Swansea are themselves deep in the mire, that was a very noble gesture indeed.
I couldn't see the game today as I am in hospital; and following it by constantly refreshing the Official Site match report was more painful than my operation to remove my gall bladder - especially after Carroll's dismissal. What's truly amazing about the last two games, of course, is that we have kept clean sheets without starting Reid and the new signings have been periphery too. Thank God in the case of Johnson!
What is clear from this window is that Sullivan and Gold are costing in relegation. No money was spent and the wages of the loan signings will not be carried over to the Championship. The decision to part with Rat was disappointing for me, but Allardyce clearly doesn't rate him. Let's hope the new Colombian is more professional than Montano; and the life of his family doesn't hinge on West Ham losing a key game!
All the best in your recovery mate.Missed your input of late ,now I know why.
ReplyDeleteCheers mate.
ReplyDeleteKevin writes... yeah me too mate get well soon and start posting more! Good week for us and I think we are that bit stronger than most around us..stoke are a push over away from home and we arent when we have a full team out.. although I think 42 or 43 may be the safety mark this year...
ReplyDeleteAre you having a personality transplant? Anyway,if not lets hope you leave feet first. No offence but you're a piece of crap. Good to see your shitty club back in the bottom 3. GET IN.
ReplyDeletelet me guess.......you could not attend todays game because you were in recovery..........when was your op..........2012......?......stop eating the cheesy puffs........and leave your best matey Mr Remotey and the lazy boy at home.............get outside and make friends........only then you can loose the anger.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you're ill mate, get well soon, great blog, you're the best, we miss your witticisms and droll humour.
ReplyDeleteI think you need a stay in hospital too. Hardly surprised you're from that cradle of knowledge that is essex mind?
DeleteThe bit where "essex boy" says we miss your wit blah blah,is the give away as the hammerfraud has barely missed a days blogging. Infact he probably leapt off the table just as the surgeon had finished his breast implants,just to blog about Ross McCormack and Brian Mcdermott on friday night.
DeleteMaiga playes part of 1 game for QPR and gets on the score sheet! What a difference a decent manager makes eh!?
ReplyDeleteHey armchair hammer,are you having that cock and balls removed from your forehead? Have a slow and painful recovery and remember to give the contents of your bedpan to the nice nurse instead of including it all in your blogs. The Leeds posts are desparate and sad now, everyone's laughing at you trying to cash in on all the action at ER.
ReplyDeleteAndy Carroll must surely now go down as the biggest flop the premiership has ever seen.
ReplyDeleteTwo words for ya pal "Fernando Torres"!!!!!
DeleteYou just know that these comments in support of 'Hammersfan' are actually him writing them himself!!
ReplyDeleteRemember when you got banned from that forum for doing the same thing??!
I think the '...you're the best' comment kind of gives you away!!
And thats why i call him the hammerfraud as well as armchairhammer,wanker,tosser etc.
ReplyDeleteactually @12.00 it's the "witticisms and droll humour" that give the game away.
ReplyDeleteCall him what you like but please, can we stop calling him a Hammer. I'm more ashamed of being associated with this car crash of a personality disorder than I am to being associated to route 1 football.
ReplyDeleteHope you recovered from your cock transplant mate. I heard they took the one from on top of your head and put it where your hermaphrodite genitals used to be. Good luck mate, we need more hammers fans like you.
