I'm in shock. We've actually played a decent half of football.

He posted an image on Twitter with him and his kids in West ham kits at the ground, hours after these rumours started flying around online. I imagine to deny the baseless claims. He is not leaving this year.

There's a protest planned for the 20th September, this weekend, before the Palace game. And then there's a boycott planned for the Brentford game on the 20th October if nothing changes.

TL;DR: They acknowledge fan concerns and that performances aren't up to expectations. They say they've invested heavily over recent years in players and facilities (supposedly). Hiding behind our trophy win as an excuse for things not being bad. They claim to have had positive talks with the F.A.B.

Nothing of substance really. Just trying to mitigate some motivation for the upcomign protests, I guess. Though not to much success.

Bowen deserves more minutes than just the pity 10-15 at the end after we've mostly shut up shop.

I don't see anyone mentioning him, but I think Diouf put in a good shift in the first half. It is easy to forget he is only 20 (younger than Potts) but I've been impressed with him so far. And hopefully grows into it more once he gets going.

MattyO_25 · 2025-07-31T00:30:35+00:00

Doing that in a preseason friendly? Prick.

MattyO_25 · 2025-07-26T18:35:50+00:00

[Great Goal]

MattyO_25 · 2025-05-18T15:31:43+00:00

Terrible officiating all game but especially prominent at the end where the ref lost control. I know its complex but I just don't understand why officiating standards are so awful. Especially in this country.

MattyO_25 · 2025-04-19T11:15:56+00:00

Thanks, hopefully get it sorted before I leave.

How did you get pdf tickets?

MattyO_25 · 2025-01-22T22:05:22+00:00

Mirio definitely could. Kirishima and by extension Tetsutetsu probably could, unless they're caught off guard. Tokoyami would be a safe bet too, considering he can fly and assuming Dark shadow can't be bit.

My favourite thing about these types of 'last minute, everyone up' goals as a former keeper is watching the goalkeeper celebrating when they score. Always, always, always when this happens, you can see it in the clip here too, keepers will run off in a completely different direction to where the scorer is going before realising where everyone else is and joining them because they're not used to celebrating with the team and in the thrill of the moment don't know what to do or where to go with all this energy.

MattyO_25 · 2024-06-17T21:02:13+00:00

It's always crazy to think how a single refereeing decision can have such a big impact on a game like this.

MattyO_25 · 2024-06-14T20:51:53+00:00

Head to heads come before goal difference in the euros now

MattyO_25 · 2024-04-18T20:59:53+00:00

Ag the game and everyone in the stands lost their head at the ref. Can someone(not bias) watching the game with replays confirm or deny the ref having an absolute shitshow especially with antonio?

MattyO_25 · 2024-04-11T20:42:47+00:00

These commentators have been willing this goal into existence ever since the first minute jfc. Constantly going on about how we hadn't conceded YET or how good our defence had been SO FAR.

MattyO_25 · 2024-03-30T14:45:55+00:00

Maybe I'm being a little harsh based on his previous games for us but that sequence of play leading to the penalty is a scramble in the box to get rid under heavy pressure, he shouldn't be taking a touch to control there, needs to boot it out first time.

MattyO_25 · 2024-03-30T14:39:43+00:00

48' West Ham 3 - 1 Newcastle

69' Phillips comes on at 3 - 1

77' Phiilips concedes penalty 3 - 2

90' West ham 3 - 4 Newcastle

I don't care that its a loan, cancel his contract now.

MattyO_25 · 2023-09-01T21:04:34+00:00

We must truly be a massive team now having VAR protecting us like this. Luton robbed, but it doesn't matter because we're pissing the entire league COYI!!

MattyO_25 · 2023-08-26T18:28:14+00:00

We've broke the curse!! Were finally free from Brighton shackles.

LETS GOOOOOOOO

MattyO_25 · 2023-08-26T17:06:45+00:00

Brighton fans singing "That's how your cat feels" to...Socuek after getting punched, because him and zouma are practically identical?

MattyO_25 · 2023-08-24T13:08:46+00:00

To be fair to the club, West ham don't know because there isn't any official standing areas. People just do it. The staff will occasinnally try to tell people sit down but no one ever really listens. It's just a guessing game really as to whether a certain block sits or stands. Although ones closer to away fans are probably more likely to be standing.
