Allardyce Picks Team To Win!

Interesting. Doctor Evil seems to be trying to win the game whilst not risking his blue chip players. Green, Tomkins (both subs), Nolan, Cole and Noble (nowhere to be seen) are all rested, but O’Neil, Lansbury, Collison, Reid, O’Brien and Baldock all start. You have a sense that Sears and Carew…

FA Cup Third Round – Who Cares?

St Andrews was half full yesterday for a game between Birmingham and hated rivals Wolves – and that says it all. Man Utd and Man City are scrapping for bragging rights today but both managers would happily trade a place in the FA Cup for 6 points against their gobby neighbours in the Prem. What sort of team will Allardyce …

FINALLY SOME CONCRETE WORDS ON OUR OLYMPIC STADIUM PLANS!

Thinking back to when the club first started chasing the Olympic Stadium, I realised our property pursuit has been going on for around two years. I’ve always been pretty firm in my opinion that the stadium is the opposite of what a football club should be looking for; it was apparently …

THE THOUGHT OF A CUP RUN BRINGS BACK BAD MEMORIES

I’ve got to admit that the last year or two have slightly soured the joy of cup competitions for me. I’ve always loved the FA Cup but the sheer strain of supporting West Ham under Zola and Grant has left a slow-healing psychological wound. The last five months have gone some way to healing the wound…
