West Ham banter 2

22 Apr 2024 20:36:53
Whether its Amorin, Potter or whoever. We all know Moyes is leaving now. Moyes has been superb for our club, and we ALL need to remember that fact. I wish him all the best in his next venture. Looking forward to Saturday.

23 Apr 2024 05:29:06
Ridiculous. No he hasn’t. He was brought in to prevent the drop, which he did. Given the amount of money he was handed after that, his record has been one of divisive argument. He was in charge when the pool of talented players won a third tier trophy against average opposition at best. His style of football has seen the loss of enthusiasm by thousands of fans. If he had been “superb”, then why are there so man WHU fans who cannot wait to see the back of him, and why do most agree it’s “time to move on”? I, and thousands of others, can’t wait for him to go and bring this nightmare to an end.

23 Apr 2024 07:51:23
Tinlegs, whoever you are, obviously you had no interest in us winning a '3rd tier' cup? I celebrated it. As did MANY thousands who lined the streets. It lead us to the Europa League! We have had some excellent nights at the London Stadium; and winning in AZ Alkmaar was a night to remember - due to the 'third tier cup'. The first Conference final was Roma and Feyenoord. the second ourselves and Fiorentina, this years I feel will be Villa v Fiorentina. I am sure each of those clubs will value the trophy. Sadly, you do not. Moyes has done a great job for our club. People, like yourself, have short memories. very short. When he arrived we were in a SHOCKING STATE. Yet, he leaves us with a reasonable pool of players, and hopefully, the new manager can progress us again. Well done Moyes, and good luck to the next manager.

23 Apr 2024 09:16:48
He’s spent nearly half a billion quid and we have one of the smallest and oldest first team squads in the league! The fan base has never been more divided. Had our tea lady been in charge last year, we would still have won that trophy. We were clear favourites from the start as the opposition teams were very weak. Our league positions under Moyes have been woeful, given the money spent. Finally, if the Moyes era has been so good, why do so many people want to see the back of him and will celebrate when he’s finally gone?

23 Apr 2024 11:19:03
I believe Moyes has a net loss of £360m over the last 4.5 years, average £90m each year When you consider Chelsea spent 1 billion last season, it does not read too bad.

23 Apr 2024 14:08:31
£90m a year and ended up with the smallest and eldest squad in the premier league which is why we now have no legs at the end of the season so that worked well didn;t it. let's sell all our players off and get no replacements. great strategy and how many windows have we screamed about needing a striker, full backs, more depth in the squad etc and MOYES vetoed it, so, am sorry, but, comparing us to CHelsea don't wash

23 Apr 2024 15:16:23
Well said, Daisy. The Moyes apologists (albeit so few in number) are grabbing at straws, and to compare our situation to Chelsea is a complete joke and sign of desperation. Brooking10 (or whatever name you currently choose to call yourself) is making a last gasp effort to convince us that the Moyes era was wonderful because we got to play games against some lower grade European opposition! We won a trophy everyone and his mother expected us to win anyway. At last the numpty that is David Moyes is on his bike, and it can’t come soon enough, just like thousands of WHU fans have been crying out for! Yeah, Brooking10, Moyes has been superb. Hilarious.

23 Apr 2024 15:27:12
And for a truthful assessment of the “superb” David Moyes, just watch Claret and Booze Gary’s daily ramble “Amorim Latest - Good Riddance Moyes - Moyes Lies” on YouTube. Now that IS an accurate review of Moyes’ time at WHU.

23 Apr 2024 21:01:50
Tinlegs, you appear obsessed with calling me another name. You mentioned it last week. I have no idea who you have upset, but it appears to have affected you quite badly.

I am a TRUE fan and attend all home games and many away games, therefore, I am entitled to my opinion. This site should be named West Ham Banter As Long As You Agree With Tinlegs.

23 Apr 2024 22:56:32
Brooking10, I have never said or intimated that you cannot share your opinions. To suggest otherwise is not only wrong, but plain daft, as most can clearly see. However, I do reserve the right to disagree with those opinions when I think they are wrong. This is not a form of censorship as you suggest, but it is the basis for debate, and that is what a forum for discussion and banter is all about. If you don’t like it - tough.

24 Apr 2024 06:53:25
And here is me thinking we all want the best for WEST HAM as a club LMAO. How wrong was eye ROFL

24 Apr 2024 11:09:59
Too right, Daisy. And this is a clear indication of the divide created by the "superb" David Moyes among the best supporters in the country. COYI!

24 Apr 2024 13:05:46
Anyway, back to David Moyes -
The incompetent Moyes has known he’s toast for several weeks. That’s why he came out with that bullsh*t “I’ve been offered a contract and the decision is mine”. He cannot abide the realisation that he was being pushed. That also explains the onslaught of media pundits all coming out at the same time in support of their old mate Moyes. Sorry boys, but the writing’s been on the wall for several weeks now.
My problem with this is, how does the buffoon motivate a team that knows he’s yesterday’s news? Why won’t the board get rid of this particular piece of dead wood now and replace him with a caretaker coach (Heitinga)? The sooner Moyes goes, the better.

22 Apr 2024 16:18:07
The prospect of Amorim is exciting, he plays 3/4/3 in the main, and a lovely brand of football, keep your legs crossed , !Steidten is driving this one, or then maybe Sloppy Loppy, is also a move forward, in either case, we are going to get a few Portuguese, , Brazilian and. Spanish players, and maybe a German or two to improve a nucleus of players we will have left after, so many leave in 10 weeks time, our youth will-be properly assessed, and given.the Opportunity, that Moyes totally ignored .Moyes doesn't understand the whole concept of a squad, a point he has repeatedly showed, .BE careful what you wish for, yeah alright, we don't want a defence that doesn't work, players that can't be bothered, and letting in a ridiculous amount of goals, and we wish to see a good brand of football I have seen Steidten quite a few times at matches, but the look on his face yesterday, and then he put his hands on his face, that tells me all, Moyes looks like he will be allowed the 4 matches remaining, can't imagine why, there's only two months salary to be paid, an act of decency I suppose

22 Apr 2024 16:49:07
As long as we remember to give the new guy time for him to imprint his ideas on us. Moyes trying to back track by saying he prefers working with small squads? Well, tell you what. Go manage a 5 a side team

22 Apr 2024 19:53:23
??Like the 5 a side quip Osh????⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒

23 Apr 2024 15:02:26
Thanks Chelms lol ? ? ? ?

23 Apr 2024 15:43:04
Not so negative now, eh, Chelmsford?

22 Apr 2024 08:19:32
The Hammers have won just four of our last 21 games in all competitions over the past three-and-a-half months.

This is why our Europe adventure is over for the foreseeable future. It happened last year as well but as he won the cup it kept him in post…you reap what you deserve and we deserve better.

22 Apr 2024 16:50:38
I heard that today on sky tv. Shocking! 4 wins in our last 21 games and the 4th worst defence in the Premier league. Smallest amd oldest squad!

22 Apr 2024 06:41:30
Too many times this season we have been rolled over. Enough quality on the pitch yesterday to be more competitive. The players lacked fight, played like their season was over.

22 Apr 2024 08:33:12
My opinions no different to every poster on here, Moyes OUT ASAP, no renewal of ANY contract despite his stats! He’s done a job, stabilised us, but been bloody well paid for it as well as are all PL Managers and players!
We were absolute rubbish against Palace as we have been in many games this season, although I do think Palace are underated!
I feel so sorry for the die hard supporters that travel away as well, I watched on TV but only up to HT!
EMBARRASING! ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒

22 Apr 2024 09:23:32
We cannot even threaten the opposition with a substitution or two, as we have nobody scary to bring on.

22 Apr 2024 05:45:50
Just seen this.
How is he still in a job?
On the pitch for West Ham today:

- 39 year old GK
- 31 year old RB
- 29 year old LB
- 35 and 29 year old CBs
- 2x 29 year old CMs
- 34 year old striker
- 34 year old substitute brought on

Hundred of millions spent and the board still can't see how bad he is.

22 Apr 2024 16:51:39
Oldest squad in premier league and moyes wants maguire?

22 Apr 2024 19:04:00
I wouldn't be surprised if he went in for lingard

21 Apr 2024 18:18:58
agree with much of what is written - but why does he continue to put Johnson on as a sub yet doesn't consider him good enough to have a renewed contract - Paqueta has already signed for Citey he is not interested - whatever Cornet has done is baffling - he is given 5 or 6 minutes last week and today, we made Palace look like Real Madrid or Brazil - our aging squad is not even paper thin - our squad is knackered thanks to continual overuse - not that I can believe a highly paid professional athlete should get tired on perhaps 200 minutes work doing what millions of us would do for nothing - and not even fret over bills or mortgage.

21 Apr 2024 20:48:06
Remember when Johnson came on a month or 2 ago in midfield and looked quality then never got a look in since Apart from a few late appearances out wide.

He should have got more opportunities in there, would have given us much needed energy and athleticism in the middle jwp and soucek are far to slow a lot of the time and don't offer huge amounts in possession at least johno has shown he's willing and competent enough to drive into space when the opportunity arises.

Ings also had his best performance for us behind the striker then never got a look in again despite the odd 5 minute cameo.

Don't get it, Moyes did the same with downes played him out of position most the time but when he had his best game for us in europa in his preferred position he barely got a look in after that I'm sure he got MOTM then moyes brought him on the next game for 10 minutes but played him on the right of midfield. We know he wasn't Moyes's signing but if he's doing the business on the pitch what does it matter truly baffling.

22 Apr 2024 16:00:31
Pacqueta hasn't signed for man city. And on recent performances it will never happen. Too many fans believe every rumour. According to press sources we've got 20 managers lined up as well . Only thing I do know is there's serious investment going into the club. Over the summer. And it's not one of the dwarfs ploys to sell season tickets either .

21 Apr 2024 16:55:23
IF we can ROB Man City for 85 m for Paqueta spend the money on Eze and Olise, with Kudus Bowen, and Antonio as a sub we don't need Solanke or Toney, spend accumulated Money around 30/40 m on balancing defence and midfield, Steidten has a massive job here no mistake, he's watching on in horror, and disbelief, With head in hands I'm just. 30 feet away from him how much more of this disgrace are WH supporters going to stomach Palace are on the up with new manager, we are falling down with Moyes, are we playing Real Madrid .?. We have yet to play Liverpool and Man City,

21 Apr 2024 18:02:14
Yeah we won't be be getting Eze and Olise for 85m. One of the big reasons we have Tim is to go out and find those type of players before they are worth over 50m something Moyes is not able to do.

People will see managers come in and have success playing exciting football like Howe, Emery, De Zerbi and now Glasner but still tell us to be careful what we wish for.

The games moved on, time for Moyes to retire.

21 Apr 2024 16:00:15
The thing is I don’t go with all this crap the players are tired, get a real job work 60 hrs a week and still worry about paying the bills. If the managers is preaching tired the players mindset is already in the wrong place. Only one person to blame if we think back to what happened in January.

21 Apr 2024 17:17:07
Players tired? Aston villa had extra time and penalties mid week but they played again today and won 3-1 so tell me how they are ready and we are not.

21 Apr 2024 23:32:34
You can see the Aston Villa players were tired as they all collapsed on each other after scoring their third goal. Obviously they fell asleep. ?

21 Apr 2024 15:40:25
How can Moyes survive after being 4-0 down at Palace after 30 minutes.the players are now telling the board that he has to go.

21 Apr 2024 16:02:20
Awful performance I'm afraid Paquetta is a luxury we can't afford. Total lack of midfield and Fabs indecisiveness.this is like Fulham, Brentford, Liverpool and Arsenal all over again. Moyes not strengthening the squad is really telling and with no one on the bench of any note he might as well give the youngsters a go

21 Apr 2024 17:04:25
Well that was embarrassing. Even with the Palace goalie wearing a West Ham shirt, we couldn’t win. It could have been 7 or 8. ‘Nuff said.

21 Apr 2024 15:27:28
Anybody else watching this rubbish. 20.mins and its 3-0 and we've not even had a shot on goal. This is crystal.palace!where are the moyes supporters now?

21 Apr 2024 15:38:32
And don't anybody tell me they had a hard game and gave everything on Thursday. They are professional athletes who get paid a fortune to perform. This today is shameful. Why would any manager want to take over this rubbish?

21 Apr 2024 15:44:33
Moyes should resign tonight, No question Palace massive improvement under new manager, so will we, once he’s gone, players are dead on their feet, from Thursday, this is Moyes small squad biting us in the a.se

21 Apr 2024 16:04:29
Getting completely outplayed and what does Moyes do drops our best midfielder into CB leaving the often hapless jwp and soucek in midfield.

I wouldn't be surprised if he brings him off.

People can point to fatigue but that's down to Moyes for not rotating and making our squad weaker in jan.

21 Apr 2024 16:05:22
Moyes won't resign and sullivan won't sack him!

21 Apr 2024 16:27:03
4-1 down and Moyes brings on 2 defenders. Splendid.

The Liverpool, Chelsea and City games are going to be fun to watch. For their fans. Luton will probably do a number on us as well.

21 Apr 2024 17:53:44
Moyes will be putting it down to not getting a new contact when we go the rest the season without getting a point.
