Official West Ham thread

[First Wazzock 902]

I've turned the telly off.

 

No fight no desire no passion, it's embarrassing to watch

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

At least hernandez is still trying, probably the only one not thinking about leaving us when the window opens

No booing allowed at FCR

[Michael Starr 519]

This is an absolutely disgraceful pathetic performance yet again. Pathetic. If some of these players think they're Premier League quality then they need to look at themselves. The defending has been woeful. The two players being touted for greatness... One is sat on the bench, the other is at the heart of the worst defensive display I've seen since the last game. Thank goodness for Hernandez and Krul. At least Buendia is playing well also. I feel for Farke, this isn't bad training, this is the players giving up. It's pathetic.

[yellow_belly 226]

If we keep playing like this, Norwich will have to get used to playing in front of the very small crowds. Coronavirus or no coronavirus.

We are awful! Really really awful. For anyone saying Farke is great, you are wrong.

DF will probably take him off now then 🤬

Does anyone still believe that in 2020 our ownership model can be successful at this level then? I’ve no interest in us spending another season in this league like this

I think you may be right.

I so badly want the model to work, and really, it could... for a Championship club... not a Premiership club. You need quality with current ability in the prem not potential.

We have made West Ham look brilliant.

It can't work at top level, that has become patently clear.

[The Great Mass Debater 1,081]

I think we need to remember a lot of these players are likely to not be with us next season. Next season is the Championship. We need to start thinking of the players and management team in terms of that level. They've already demonstrated they're not Premier League standard. But Premier League is no longer relevant to us

Who effing cares about Villa... its the shambles I support that I care about.. genuinely appalling season and a record 5th relegation...

I care because their faillings with spending will have our Board using it as a justification for not spending as the outcome is the same for both clubs. 
If we ever get back to the prem then this will be trotted out and no money spent again. 
Hamster wheel strategy by a club with no ambition but to avoid any debt.

This. I posted on another thread we should be looking at £30-£35m for Godfrey but now I do think we should accept anything close to £25m.

[Highland Canary 76]

The ownership model seems entirely aligned with the apparent ambition of our fans

I expected us to lose based on previous performances...but we seem to be hitting new lows today.

I feel sorry for Mr Lakey watching this **** and defending it.

[Mello Yello 2,289]

Give the lads a break.....because of social distancing Delia can't give them all a consoling hug.....

[vos 155]

 Bringing on two promising youngsters when we are being thrashed. Does not make sense.

[Midlands Yellow 3,974]

The usual suspects have their work cut out tonight to convince all of the model and the future. 

[The Great Mass Debater 1,081]

Im not watching the game, keeping track of it only. But from the comments it sounds like another Russell Martin moment 

 

[Aggy 754]

Made all the worse by the fact we still weren’t actually mathematically down before kick off today. Realistically perhaps, but surely whilst there’s even a tiny chance of staying up the players should be fighting tooth and nail to do so. Just gone down with a whimper.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Some of the players probably already know they won't be here next season. 

I'm beginning to wonder if Farke knows he won't be here too. 

Farke has had nowhere near the backing he needed this season, but despite that this still isn't good enough.  I don't just blame Farke though, Webber deserves a lot of criticism for the embarrassment of this season.  Webber should no longer be viewed as the messiah by anybody.  We are not and should not be beholden to him.  A slow start to next season and Webber's position should be under severe scrutiny.
