West Ham United 25/26 relegation thread

[muskie]

Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

[fraser]

Haha, I bet I’ve been through all this shit with west ham far more than most of you lot. According to this forum, no one (other than us) is allowed to change their form. 

Why do you think you've been through it more than others, odd thing to assume? 

[twoleftfeet]

They’ve taken 1 point, turned a corner? Deluded. 

[Mex Martillo]

Take it a weekend at a time. Another ok to good weekend. We played 2 in the league and kept it level with Forest, Spurs and Leeds! Well done! On to the next weekend.

Smartypants sounds a bit Spursy

Turned a corner? Really? Odd thing to say 

 

 

That ain't what was said though. Seems entirely possible that Spurs get a bit better than they have been lately, this massive backlash has almost shamed them into putting in some effort. Some players to come back in and a kinder (on paper at least) fixture list than Forest or us. Tudor probably keeps his job a bit longer after that, so that's a bonus for everyone else.

For suggesting that spurs might have turned a corner after getting a point at Anfield after a wretched run of form? Not that odd is it?  Everyone expected for them to go there and lose badly.

[twoleftfeet]

Everyone thought it was going to be double figures at Anfield today and it wasn’t. I’m hoping for another defensive display like last night from us, but no one knows what Villa team will turn up. Unfortunately, I do think spurs will turn a bit of a corner. 

Are you Ferrets mate?

Villa’s last 5 home league games have been a win against Brighton a draw with Leeds & defeats by Brentford Everton & Chelsea
Have gone off the boil & have a midweek European game 
We are going to need some unexpected wins and have to have a go
Id take a point of course 

[goose]

Point at Villa would be another great result. Forest & Spurs can’t both win.
One of them gets a bad result or they draw and it’s ’as you were’. Two draws from arguably the toughest games in our run in isn’t bad at all.

Forest are probably most nervous after this weekend.

3 more wins will do it I reckon. 

[Tomshardware]

I can see spurs comfortably beating forest next weekend, as well as us loosing and it being back to a 2 horse race.  Villa are in a terrible run and I fear we will be on the receiving end. Hope I’m very wrong. 

The team that hasn't won for 12 games you see winning easily.. The team who have lost 1 in 9 you see losing to the team that is in terrible form.. 

 

 

His point is that runs and form can change, just as a team can go on a good run a team can end a bad run.  Spurs result today could be the catalyst for them to start winning some games.   While their dire form has been amusing I've always thought that they have the players there to get out of it.   

Not seen any of Villas recent games but seems that they are not in great form but have some key players returning to their team.   I do think we can go there and get something but we saw with the Liverpool thrashing that on any given day you can end up on the wrong end of a result through luck, decisions, off day etc.

Really unlikely we get anything at Villa.

Let’s be real here.

Spurs Forest draw & we beat Villa

Saw the other day we might be interested in Joe Gomez next season
Slow, injury prone & negative
Obviously the priority if we stay up is signing Disasi & offloading Kilman to some mugs

[Vexed]

Spurs vs Forest next up, who do we want to win?

I hope we beat Villa just to shut that sad fuck ferret up.

TBH any of the three results suits us. Draw is probably what I’d prefer. Keeps both of them right down there. Especially if we can win. 

 

 

OK, not what we wanted but keeps Tudor in place for at least another few games I reckon. We've lost no ground on anyone with arguably the hardest game played. A win for us at Villa would be handy, suspect a draw though. Forest are losers this weekend, nice winnable home fixture, still no goal and their next openent is a slightly rejuvenated Spurs. I expect they're quite worried. 

[Mad Ferret]

Villa have players back next week.

Would bite your hand off for a point.

I can see spurs v Forest playing out a cagey draw and us drawing at best and still standing still. Definitely need to be taking 3pts from wolves the following Friday

I want us to go hell for leather for the win against a badly out of form Villa in the League. Fall short, fair enough but I want to see us chuck the kitchen sink at them as I think they'll fold.

That had very little to do with Tudor or Spurs but more to do with Liverpool playing like a bag of rotting cսnt.
