First half usual dross. Nobody has a clue. So many sloppy passes, so lethargic and no effort. Yeah it's warm out but this is the last game of the season and to top it all spuds have scored.

24 May 2026 16:51:47
You have to ask yourself Whether we deserve to stay up?

We just don’t have the cutting edge required, it’s not over yet, but...

24 May 2026 13:09:01
Well here we are, we've had lots of missed opportunities this season leaving us on the brink, let's hope today is no another missed opportunity, come out the blocks fast and try to put spuds under as much pressure as we can.

24 May 2026 13:50:40
Let's hope we sign off this awful season in style, Robbo.

24 May 2026 14:28:18
No regrets today. Give it everything. What happens in the Spurs match will happen. Just give ourselves a chance.

24 May 2026 16:54:50
Garbage going down with a whimper.

24 May 2026 17:18:30
What the hell is up with Bowen today!?. 😡

24 May 2026 10:50:34
Well here we are, final day of the season, perhaps final day in the Premier League (for now anyway).

We all hope that some magic happens, no matter what the odds against us are.

If at 6pm we are relegated, it won’t be this game, it will be the bad decisions, points lost from winning positions, bad VAR decisions, horrible team selection, etc.



If by some chance, we survive, just get drunk and forget about football for a week, you can be sure that’s exactly what Sullivan will do.


Good luck to all our WH people today. Joyfull

Well said, Joyful, and can I just say thank you for your informative posts across the season(s). Always written in a non provocative and empathetic manner. Appreciate the info and effort mate. 👏👏

24 May 2026 11:20:42
⚒⚒⚒ Well said C&B man, AKA Joyfull, which I don't think that you'll be feeling as your login name suggests when both games are finished. 🤔 🙊 I am well resigned to the fact that we're the team going down, so it can only be elation for me. 🎉 I am staggered; Spurs are in this position, bigger, better squad, but from many games past, when we've been ahead, the bloody manager tried to park the lorry for half the games, so we should never have been in this position.

Glad to see the back of him, hopefully. 👍 🤞 At my Daughters for a BBQ before the game, all Hammers there, then squeaky Bum time. 🙊 🙈 COYI. ⚒⚒⚒⚒

24 May 2026 12:14:40
Cheers Joyful, I'm just off to the game now, more in hope than expectation. I know it will be nerve-wracking, but if we can't beat a team who have already got their flip flops on, then what hope have we got. We need the help of others. Either way, can't wait to see the end of the season. COYI ⚒️⚒️⚒️

24 May 2026 13:47:04
Joyful, and everyone else on here. I've just arrived at the ground, and there's lots of people around, and it's not usually this busy.
Whatever happens today, as long as we go out to win, that's all that matters, whether it's prem or championship next season. God and the Elizabeth Line willing, I'll be here.

No Romero for Spurs tomorrow 🎉🎉🎉 Let’s hope Everton take advantage of that tomorrow. COYI & Toffees tomorrow. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞⚒⚒⚒⚒

24 May 2026 10:42:03
In all honesty, as long as we have a good go at them and give it everything, regardless of result, at least we had a go. Rather than see us sit back.

24 May 2026 11:18:00
Agree with you both. Here we go gents, what will be, will be...

24 May 2026 13:41:39
Once I get in the ground will get behind them fully and shake my current pessimism. Here's hoping for a comfortable win 🙏

23 May 2026 13:35:39
Question time - If we are to survive in the prem and you could move 3 players from the current squad (excluding those already out on loan) who would you choose?
And what 3 incoming would you like to see.

For me, Todibo has to go.

In turn, Disasi would be a nailed on incoming for me if we survived.
I do still think another interchangeable attacker needs to come in - someone like Jonathan David who can play up top, just behind and also wide.

23 May 2026 15:20:51
I think, even if we survive, we will lose Summerville, Fernandes and probably Bowen.

3 I want to see gone are Tobido, Fulkrug and Cornet (and let's not forget Kilman).

I'd like us to get Charlie Cresswell and Harewood-Bellis. Two good young cbs.

23 May 2026 16:39:15
Charlie Cresswell is a good shout, but I think a lot of other clubs are gonna be interested. We may have missed the chance last summer.

I don’t know where all these stories are coming from?

All the current WH squad without exception have the same relegation clause written into their contracts, 50% of current wage to be paid if we are relegated, this has been the case since 2019/2020

No players! Have get out clauses eg. To be sold on at a cheap price that was previously agreed, not true

Whatever the overall outcome, Sunday, if any player wishes to leave, it’s up to WH to obtain the best deal they can get, in the circumstance

As of 12 noon today

No deals of any kind have been agreed, on sales lots of talks.

Regarding certain players ok
Why not? That’s all
Equally WH have not agreed any deals, either on incoming players

Relegation clauses are standard practice, and are legally binding, irregardless of players, and agents demands

Unfortunately WH are in a poor position money wise, but because of the legal situation, they don’t have to sell players like Summerville for nothing, just silly talk, one article suggests, this player will be sold for £12 m, let’s see it!!!!!

If players want to leave, fair enough, they will……but not for the silly prices, that are. Currently being banded about Joyfull

22 May 2026 22:34:31
I think Southampton showed the way last season. If clubs want players bad enough, they pay for them. A few of our players could generate bidding wars, so let them go to the highest bidder.

Set a price and don't move from it, but we will.

22 May 2026 10:13:47
So Bowen didn't make the England squad. I'm disappointed for him but in other ways I'm somewhat pleased he gets a rest and needs to recover. That is of course he stays.

22 May 2026 12:52:43
In fairness, Mercerl's form over the last few months hasn't warranted it. I also think Foden, Palmer and Gibbs White missing out are bigger shocks.

22 May 2026 16:19:01
The omission of Maguire is a disgrace. He puts his utmost into games and scores goals, especially with Stones' inclusion, and he was injured for most of the season. NO 😡, Toney NO, Watkins unsure?
Bowen didn’t deserve selection but pleased anyway. Don’t like ours on international duty!

Agreed, Hammer-D, on others not selected, they are all potential game changers. 😡⚒⚒⚒

22 May 2026 18:10:59
Agreed, Chelmsford. Toney is a bad decision, and I think McGuire can always do a job for the national side. I don't like Tuchel, but I will give his idea of more importance to having team players, and not just outstanding individuals, a chance, as we have seen that ourselves when we had Paqueta.

He was our most gifted player, but didn't help the team, and it is only since he has left that our season picked up.

I went on talksport after the Arsenal game and Newcastle game, and Pardew was basically agreeing with what I was saying.

20 May 2026 20:05:22
How about Pardew for manager.

20 May 2026 21:00:06
Pardew is too busy relaxing with Sam Allardyce by the pool to want the aggro of managing again. 🤣🤣🤣⚒⚒⚒⚒
