Oh the joy. I am so glad I was wrong., I predicted 2-0 and it turned out to be 3-0. By all accounts it was a fantastic performance. Sky Sports said we could have had ten. And to think, I turned down tickets in favour of delivering Tory leaflets for a Tottenham supporting friend of mine in Chatham. I must want my head read. Still, as you may have seen in the previous threads, we delivered a leaflet to Rooster, one of my regular commenters. Spooky coincidence, or what?!
It seems the back four performed wonders and Rob Green saved a penalty, but the men of the match were Etherington and Bellamy. It’s fantastic to see Matty Etherington back in top form. I would have quite happily seen him leave Upton parl in the summer after his terrible form last year. It’s great to see he must have got rid of his demons.
Oh what fun it is to see, West Ham win away. Well, it would have been had I been there…



Oh well, what a great weekend. Why is it, there always seems to be a break after our best performances?
I used to love watching England. Every bit as much as my loved Hammers but lately, I feel cheated every time they play. At least Lumpard and Gerrard is not playing. They both seem to be right up the managers back passage and seem undropable to him. hopefully it wont be another lame duck performance like they normaly produce!
Come on England!
ha yes, know what u mean brooking. maybe the extra week off will help get a few of the other lads fit enough to join in the fun though.
Sometimes a break can be as bad as a good thing. In my experience,it has always been good for those that are recovering from illness/injuries etc,but to those players who are fully fit it can be a distraction they don’t need,but I think that Curbs will cope well with it and get the players in thw right frame of mind come the Middlesbro game.
We are starting to see why Curbs was at Charlton for all those years,and for the majority of the time he was quite successfull,without actually winning anything. By staying in the Prem for a number of years on a shoestring budget is beleive me quite a successfull achievment.
I don’t think he is a wheeler dealer like Harry R but who is? Given time I think we have the right manager in place to achieve our goals and I hope that Magnesson will keep faith in him.
agreed mate – the man s not perfect , but who is. 9 months from now we may feel differently ,but based on recent evidence, he certainly deserves the chance to move the club forward.
