Valencia Verdict – The fans speak
Posted on 07 February 2016.
Enner Valencia tends to split opinion among Irons fans. After suffering his share of injuries he has managed four goals and goals and two assists in six games so are we convinced this is a 12 million player. ClaretandHugh’s Facebook forum members have been discussing the Ecuadorian international @https://www.facebook.com/groups/363174467150521/ Here’s what they are saying: O […]

The crazy cost of not getting a replay ticket
Posted on 07 February 2016.
Some things have to be done …and this is one of them. There is little point in ClaretandHugh – or any other independent website claiming it is here for the supporters – if it doesn’t raise their perfectly justified complaints. Last week we drew attention to the wicked problems people were encountering in trying to […]

When patient football becomes pointless football
Posted on 07 February 2016.
I have no problem with patient football….to a point. Certainly it’s an awful lot better than hoofball which in the context of yesterday’s match against Southampton would have served us no better than the pass and “probe” (I use the word carefully) approach we adopted against a well drilled defence. Yes I understand the team […]

Byram on the brink
Posted on 07 February 2016.
West Ham new boy Sam Byram will need to be on his very best first team behaviour until the start of the Aptil. The £3.8 million right back found himself back in the referee’s black book yesterday which leves him staring at a two game suspension should he stray the wrong side of the law […]

Slav keeps his anger under control – JUST!
Posted on 06 February 2016.
I really wouldn’t have wanted to be a West Ham player this evening given the clear mood of Slaven Bilic when he appeared before the cameras. After missing a very big opportunity on the south coast this was one very unhappy Croat who whilst refusing to point fingers looked like a man who’s lost a […]

Shoddy Hammers fail against Saints ten men
Posted on 06 February 2016.
There’s little point in beating around the bush…that was a poor performance with the team finally paying the price for a shoddy start which is becoming as much a feature of the season as the big away victories. The first half – as it has been on many occasions this season – was a total […]

Maya Yoshida celebrates as 10-man Southampton keep out West Ham
Posted on 06 February 2016.
Another clean sheet and, most important, another win for Southampton. Victor Wanyama’s avoidable sending-off in the 54th minute meant they had to withstand a barrage of West Ham United pressure but the resurgence of Ronald Koeman’s team since the turn of the year shows no sign of abating thanks to Maya Yoshida’s early goal. This victory made it 13 points from the last 15 and suddenly a top-six place is in Southampton’s sights. They have still not conceded since Fraser Forster made…
