The performance yesterday just not good enough over 90 minutes but we have to discuss the level of refereeing. The blatant time wasting from James Trafford taking forever with kicks and the continual falling down of Burnley players was appalling. Now. You have to remember this was the same ref who let Bristol City get away with murder in the FA cup replay. The standard of refereeing in this country is at an all time low in my opinion.

Match of the day pundits commented as follows on our game today "Well, the performance today really was horrendous wasn't it. To sit back and allow one of the worst teams in the league to impose themselves on the game was just unacceptable"!

They starting to see what we've been saying for how long?!

11 Mar 2024 15:52:39
Watched the full game live, absolute tripe in the first half especially, lifeless, dull, no invention! Second half completely different, Ant injected life into the team up front, big fan as have said many times, always shakes them up, maybe try more often Ant and Ings both up front for at least one full half, along with Kudus, Bowen, Paqueta!
Gave the crowd something to cheer about when we livened up second half, good to see Ings on the score sheet, could have had a Hat Trick with a bit of luck, he’s taken some stick from most of us, me included!
Ward Prowse now stuttering along, was never sure about him as a Marquee signing, to reliant on set pieces, any player should be able to take a good dead ball kick, Phillips well, how long will this “short of fitness and rusty” be used as an excuse? ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒

10 Mar 2024 14:56:52
Pointless us all complaining because it won't change anything. Easily worst performance I've seen from us this season. Out played AT HOME by Burnley?

Agree21 Disagree0

I wonder who's input that was at H/T I think the players said we ain't playing like this no more but I think HEITINGA had an input but total chalk and cheese between both half.⚒⚒⚒

It was so easy to see all that is wrong with West Ham today notably in Moyes again deciding to play a counter attacking game against a bottom of the table team in our own stadium.

It’s the wrong way to approach most games but to continue down such a road today was entirely horrific

Many have argued it was the correct wat against Freiburg. Maybe!
I would sincerely hope the same fans don’t believe it was the right attitude against a very poor Burnley side whom we managed to make look like Brazil at times. And this is the very reason why so many of us have had more than enough of David Moyes and want him gone as soon as possible although sadly, I still am not at all sure it will happen.

Yet here is a manager whose priority signings this last few months have been JWP and Kalvin Phillips, both of whom were replaced at half time such was their lack of input. Surely this also brings into question his decision making when it comes to player recruitment, but also his lack of foresight to bring through and develop youth.

Then there was another Mavropanos own goal and another poor performance from Aguerd on yet another comeback. Beyond all that was the team’s inability to pass the ball and perform may of the basics properly. Roll on Thursday and what's the betting moyes has us sitting back trying to catch frieburg on the counter attack

11 Mar 2024 02:41:12
Here we go; David Moyes shifting the blame for a disastrous performance onto refereeing decisions. He berates the officials and VAR for bad decisions. No mention of his own bad decisions on selection and tactics. I can’t wait for this season to be over so we can say goodbye to this boring self-opinionated idiot.

10 Mar 2024 14:47:10
David moyes blames declan rice for the amount of goals we've conceded this season? Yep, you heard it right? It's declans fault

Agree19 Disagree0

11 Mar 2024 08:26:27
Oshee, Can you be more specific on your above post re DM blaming Rice for our goals conceded as it seems such a ridiculous and bizarre statement if true even from Moyes!
However I have always thought the reason for Rice’s departure was entirely due to Moyes non style of attacking Football and lack of player management skill which would have been evident and well known within the club, so maybe some retribution on his behalf?
I think Rice’s departure was very diplomatic on his behalf and do believe he had become to big for the club, so it was beneficial to both parties!

Gary O'Neill is doing at great job at wolves, I have them going down this season, as he did a great job with Bournemouth last season when they looked all but dead and buried. He's got history at westham, his name should be in with a shout

Agree19 Disagree0

10 Mar 2024 14:28:23
Forget everyone, it seems moyes will be signing a new contract at seasons end. On a side note, 30 mins gone v Burnley at home and not one shot in anger! Here we go again!

10 Mar 2024 14:38:21
Bloody losing as well, loads of possession to Burnley?Bloody disgrace ????

10 Mar 2024 14:42:20
Yes but he won a trophy dontchya know? We've never had it so good.

10 Mar 2024 14:46:49
I remember saying a long time ago that JWP would be useless, then he went and had a decent start to the season.

I'm revising my opinion back to my original statement. He's complete and utter garbage. Offers next to nothing to the side apart from an occasional decent corner. Does he actually know how to pass the ball forward?

Southampton had our pants right down when they sold him to us.

10 Mar 2024 14:48:46
BOOOOOOOOOO! Just BOOOOOOOOO!


That is all.

10 Mar 2024 14:49:04
2-0 Burnley. Another defensive cock up. Who's fault is it this time?

10 Mar 2024 14:59:56
I'd rather play one of the youth players than JWP at the moment even his main attribute set pieces are rubbish, I'm sick to the back teeth of this low press garbage and the thing that's getting my back up is so called ex players and pundits sticking up for him, I've not heard one of them saying his football is shocking they only go on where our false league position as we got a very good start, but I'm convinced he will part ways with us well I'm ??? he does as I cannot take another season of this rubbish non football style its horrendous and that's being polite.

10 Mar 2024 15:15:11
Paq in the middle and he scores. Coincidence? I think not.

10 Mar 2024 16:25:04


Let’s get behind the squad. Come on you irons.

10 Mar 2024 18:18:41
If I had charged of westham, guaranteed I'd get Is top 4

10 Mar 2024 19:52:59
We don’t have a top 4 squad. Not even close.

10 Mar 2024 20:27:59
Smallest oldest squad in the league and we've spent a fortune under Moyes tenure. Time for a new manager one that's happy to work with young and exciting players that Tim can find.

08 Mar 2024 15:53:29
Point is this, I mentioned before that it's unlikely we could beat either Liverpool or Leverkusen ( should we get past Freiburg ), having looked at other games could we get past Roma, Marseille or Milan, either .not looking at last night we can't, need to have very lucky draw , if we do get through.have to hope some big guns knock each other out, or that's as far as we go

Agree17 Disagree0

07 Mar 2024 22:04:57
Should have been a penalty, BUT we had two or three chances to win this game, we had settled fora goalless draw at 70 minutes, and just got sloppy, thinking Freiburg couldn't score, well they did Now. We have a job to do next week after first half I thought we would get a couple second half, disappointing

Agree18 Disagree0

07 Mar 2024 22:21:38
Didn't think it was a penalty Soucek pushed him in the back. I actually thought the ref was excellent tonight.

08 Mar 2024 08:35:06
Absolutely underwhelming, overwhelming boring load of defensive rubbish from a supposed PL side!
What is this Manager trying to do to the paying travelling fans, send them all to sleep??We cannot defend for 90 bloody minutes with the likes of Zouma who can hardly move, what was he doing, looking at the crowd when the ball came passed him for the tap in for Freiburg! Then to bring Ant on with 3 mins to go, what an effing joke!
For me I would not travel to one of our games free of charge and all travel expenses, I am ashamed of our no Football attacking ability from the man in charge!
Forget his bloody stats, OUT OUT OUT please MOYES, all this be careful what you wish for rubbish, please please a Manager/Coach that tries to win games now, ASAP, surely I am not in the minority? Not surprising the posters and posts that have dropped off on here, most i assume bored repeating ourselves! ⚒⚒⚒⚒

08 Mar 2024 12:23:46
Its such a shame that recently we had two good wins to put us back on track, but then, last night, MOYES reverted to type again. This wasn't Liverpool, or Bayern Munich or Real Madrid, it was Freiburg, who, by the admission of a lot of experts are an average team. Why then, did we think we could go there, get a 0-0 draw or maybe nick a goal late on?

Why odes Moyes insist on doing this? The so called experts that have been backing were all saying virtually the same thing "Paqueta is back, West ham playing some decent stuff in patches but we should have brushed Freiburg aside last night and killed the tie off". Moyes, had other ideas? WHY? I don't understand it and I thought we had turned a corner but it was back to the same old rubbish!

10 Mar 2024 01:59:32
Daisy brentford apart we was extremely fortunate against EVERTON it basically was a smash and grab, we stole it and if that penalty would have gone in imo it would have been a different outcome but we will never know this prediction from me, also our best player in that game by a country mile was AREOLA so that says everything.⚒⚒⚒

07 Mar 2024 22:01:11
I've heard some bad commentary on football matches, but Don Hutchison takes the biscuit. He's well suited to TNT - That Numpty Twerp. He came out with the usual ill-informed crap about Kudus and Alvarez being superb Moyes signings! He even suggested that WHU had a player on the bench who could change the game - Danny Ings! ?
Zouma totally at fault for Freiburg's goal. I think the ref judged Soucek shoved the Freiburg player into handling the ball.

Agree16 Disagree0

08 Mar 2024 10:06:41
I sat through that and thought the same as you about Don Hutchinson commentary. Also thought the Ref was excellent last night and quite clearly Soucek pushed him in the back no penalty was the right decision

08 Mar 2024 12:36:45
I totally agree with you Merceri.
The commentators were bleating on about why it was taking VAR so long to see the ball had been handled in an unnatural position when it was obvious to anyone who had eyes and a brain that the refs were trying to decide if Soucek had shoved the Freiburg lad into handling the ball. Excellent refereeing and a good decision. So much for Moyes "managing the game"! It's clear the commentators (including the inept Hutchison TNT) don't watch many WHU games. And when Hutchison said Ings was a game changer, I couldn't pick myself off the floor for laughing. Just shows how these so-called football pundits are switched on! Hilarious.

09 Mar 2024 04:49:29
And to illustrate how these morons all stick together, this is the latest gem from that well known twerp, Martin Keown, on the West Ham fanbase opinion of David Moyes:
“He has done really well, and his record is outstanding. I don’t like the negative chat around him – he has done a really good job at West Ham and will continue to do so. I thought they were unlucky.” (Talksport)
? I rest my case.

05 Mar 2024 13:06:40
Well off to Freiburg (again) in a couple of hours with dreams of watching us play in an open and progressive way! Some hope eh? But a 1-0 away win playing bland unimaginative football will suffice if it means I'm one step closer to a Guinness related p*ss up in Dublin ?

Agree18 Disagree0

05 Mar 2024 14:41:05
Very impressed with your away support Dicksy, especially abroad, must cost you big bucks, on your own or with family and fellow supporters, I will be watching on TNT and imagine which may be you unless you have one with Dicksy on it??Enjoy the German ? Lager win or lose???what part of the country are you from? Enjoy you flight and keep out of trouble win or lose, they don’t mess about with the likes of English Rowdies!
⚒⚒⚒⚒COYI

10 Mar 2024 02:11:47
Frieburg were on a par with SHEFF UTD imo MUNICH must be very poor at the present time to not beat them, and they have won 1 game this year in the Bundesliga we will more than likely go through but MOYES done his usual thing by throwing for me our most important player above PAQUETA BOWEN, KUDUS in ALVAREZ by saying he gave the ball away for their goal but not that ZOUMA was ball watching and is finished imo his knees are hanging on by gaffer tape they way he runs and turns, but DD won't throw one of his little favourites under the bus and ALVAREZ is trying to do 3 players work as SOUCEK and JWP are not good enough to play C/M or CDM but he wouldn't dream of playing our youth who recently beat LIVERPOOL 4-0 but KLOPP plays his youngsters but unless your past 21 you ain't getting a run in the team or a start very very unlikely it's a joke and if MOYES stays then our youth system is pointless.⚒⚒⚒

04 Mar 2024 07:16:53
As someone who was at Goodison let me tell you this! 3-1 flattered us and the 1st half performance was atrocious.Areola was outstanding, Alverez held the midfield together and Kudus always looked a menace! But make no mistake this performance was in no way brilliant! Yes 6 points in a week is a bonus

Agree21 Disagree0

04 Mar 2024 10:26:09
100% agree with this.

04 Mar 2024 10:39:31
I was not there. I listened to the match on the radio, so I cannot say how we played. I did watch the highlights however, and just from those and the radio coverage, it struck me there were two real high points. Areola's performance and the Soucek goal. These are both down to individual skill and nothing to do with tactics.

04 Mar 2024 11:31:02
Credit must be given to that gut-busting run from Alvarez in the dying minutes to score the 3rd. Remarkable engine.

04 Mar 2024 12:10:20
Moyes has just got lucky (again) picking up 6 points against teams who haven't won in months! Areola won us the match against Everton which says everything you need to know! Yes Soucek scored a worldie and Yes Alverez scored on the break but the performance as it always is under Moyes was defensively minded crap with a sprinkling of goldust.

04 Mar 2024 14:03:08
Dicksy1973, What a dedicated supporter you are to our club &all the other travelling supporters, assuming you are not a Merseyside man and are a Southerner? ?You saw it as we heard it on Radio, getting battered with Areola our saviour! To travel all that way knowing the defensive rubbish you have to sit through?, costing stupid money, but at least you saw the win, hopefully you didn’t leave early at 1-1 to avoid the crowds??
So you saw the 2 great goals in extra time, well that was some smash n grab, Dyche must have been ?along with all the scousers!
COYI ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒

{Ed001's Note - not all the Scousers Chelmsford, the red half defo enjoyed your win too!}

04 Mar 2024 16:44:02
??Apologies Ed001, thought one of you Ed’s were either a red or blue but wasn’t sure? Rather like calling all Londoners Cockneys!
⚒⚒⚒⚒

{Ed001's Note - ed25 is the bluenose, but we try not to hold it against him.}

12 Mar 2024 14:37:15
Ed001, I would be interested in Ed025s opinion of Moyes considering he was in charge there for some 11 years.
⚒⚒⚒⚒

{Ed025's Note - im not his biggest fan to be honest Chelmsford, hes a decent mid table manager for me and im afraid his style of football will always limit a team who have higher expectations mate, most of our fanbase could not wait to get rid of him to be honest as he had a defeatist attitude against the bigger teams which he described as taking a "knife to a gunfight", kudos to him though for winning the europa with you but i imagine you will see it as a long hard slog the longer he is there, this is not bitterness on my part just an honest view of how limited i think he is and how uninspiring the football he plays is, but good luck for the rest of the season..

13 Mar 2024 08:50:50
Ed025, thanks for an honest reflection on your opinion of DM on his 11 year year tenure at Goodison. It seems a perfect description of the way the majority of your fans thought about him and the way ours do! ?⚒⚒⚒⚒

{Ed025's Note - no problem mate..
