I know I am going to get ripped for this but. Is it just me or has the last two results caused somewhat of an over reaction our youths lost to Forest and a stronger but still not our strongest lost by the same score line as spurs, because let's face it City are a class above. The results have angered people but I think the point we are missing is that we are still only 3 points from safety and all our strong players are on there way back from injury, these players are Sam's and they have been brought with his tactics in mind so let him get us out of this trouble and try get rid in the summer when a new manager comes in and has time to build his own team! I do think that with all our players coming back and a couple of decent additions we will be fine, we are not cut adrift and there are worse teams just above us! I am that confident I just got 30/1 on West ham to finish top 10! So let's get behind the team and just hope Big Sam can guide us to safety! COYI'sss
I get what your saying but the stoke game at home and the palace game hurt more than the last two results because those are the types of game we should be winning and if we had if win our bread and butter games we wouldn't be in this position. I hope we get a positive result against Cardiff because I think it's the most important game of our season and could define what happens to our club. Chris COYI

if you show your season ticket you can go watch real football being played at Concord
I nailed my season ticket to the wooden gate released i'd made a mistake so I went back for and and found that someone had pinched the nail

What manager would do better with our current Injuries? The worst thing we could do is get rid of allardyce now, if we did we woul go down for sure, I do think we should get rid at the end of the season though
I think my 8 month old son is free if the David's give him a call think he'd have better tactics than fat head as well. Chris COYI
Your off your head and obviously not an iron. its clear the fans and players have had enough and results are getting worse.
his one and only style of play is not wokring and amnot going to go to another game whilst he is manager
My iPad would manage better

I told you weeks ago Sam should have gone and the board decided to stick with him.
Its quite clewar by watching our boys last night that they were running aorund clueless with no guidance. The only tactic we had was to get the ball out to Downing at every opportunity so he could cross it and that was pointless.
Playing McCartney and O'Brien is pointless exercise because they are both far too old with no pace and certainly not good enough to defend at this level. The entire back line needs to be addressed because we are now shipping far to many goals.
Ok, so we'll get Reid and few others back but the damage has already been done to a battered bunch of guys that try week in week out.
Sam is clueless and his time is up and whilst I am furious that he has turned our team into this disgrace I am more furious with the owners for AGAIN leaving it too late to deal with him
So, its going to cost £5m to get rid of him. Then pay it and let's start a fresh NOW WHILST we still have enough time to save our premiership status
Totally agree

Should all from this forum take to other west ham forums and twitter etc to build a stand against the club? Maybe not attend this Saturday and let the board know they are really affecting their fans now.
I can do that. not taking my kid this weekend or to next home game
We need to do this in big numbers and do it now

It seems to me that something is amiss at my beloved hammers when every man and his dog is now calling for him to be sacked. Frankie Mc was the first, now Julian Dicks and Billy Bonds have expressed the same feelings.
Something has got to be done

sam ain't the man to take us forward by all reports it sounds like he has lost the dressing room,
g/s need to get rid asap if they wish to salvage something from this season.
its going to be really difficult to attract quality players on the back of recent perfomances and is it me or has bfs got an attitude in interviews like I don't give a sh, t.
something has defo gone behind the season morrison claims of wanting to leave nolan s/o twice in a month heithnga comes out makes a statement i'm joining west ham has a 3 hr meeting with sam and changes his mind.
sams lost without his 451.
we do have options cole/maiga upfront jarvis/downing on wings morrison diame/noble in the center.
and if a side has weakness on the left side downing can and has played as a wing back in the past with jarvis in front of him would be a force to be reckoned with joe c on the other wing.
we have been far to negative as a team this season,
a team that has very little possesion or shots on goal we have been to defensive that's why our 3 cb are out.
because bfs and crew got it wrong big time over the 2nd quality striker if we had brought in some one like remy.
we most likely would have been in a midtable slide by now but with key players returning,
I cannot see g/s laying out for any players to come in unless short term loans or frees and maybe carlton may leave in this window,
cmon daves do the right thing before its to late
Excellent analysis
it is so obvious and pathetic to watch
cardiff must be red hot favourites
poor sam was relatively successful a decade ago at bolton
unfortunately things have moved on since then and his all too obvious one plan no longer holds up
look at swansea and southampton to see what more modern systems can acheive
i think it is too late but the only chance is to try to get a new manager
a couple of players added to the current squad and we could just scrape it but more important let us have some pride in our club by playing attractive football and if we go down we will damn well come back next year
glen hoddle would be my choice great tactician
