As it's Christmas
"Bring me Enner
in your smile,
Bring me Sakho
all the while,
In this world where we live there should be more Nobleness,
So much joy you can give to each brand new Andy Carroll,
Make me Cresswell through the years
never bring me any tears,
Let your arms be as warm as the Song from up above,
Bring me Chelsea, bring me Arsenal, bring me Third!"

This older commentator is hilarious. He's confused Koyaute with Valncia. Now he's confused Reid with Kouyate.
Edit: and the other commentator has given NZ a shout out and thanked us for staying up. Nice. West Ham goals please.

That was a lesson in champions league football right there. Squeezed out of midfield, bypassed the diamond formation with quick ball. Lucky to only go down by two...thanks to Adrian. Hazard man of the match; good referee to spot Chelsea diving! Onto to Arsenal at home Sunday. COYI.
West Ham sign Henry from the MLS ..... Doneil Henry from TFC that is

Live from the Boleyn at 8:45am Wednesday 14th January; coverage of the 3rd round replay against the Toffees will be showing at the Green Man, Victoria St. Kiwi Hamners are hosting so all you West Ham faithful come on down!
just back from the game and buzzing - 10-9 on penalties with Adrian scoring the winning one. Joel Robles was time wasting continuously, wound up the Bobby Moore lower by larging it up in front of them when Everton equalised, and was generally a Twit through most of the time he was on the pitch so it was especially sweet to see him miss the 11th kick for them.
As a side note, the way I saw it was all 11 players took penalties for both sides, with Robles and Naismith missing for Everton, and Downing missing for West Ham. Sky news are saying the result was 9-8 on penalties, but surely it was 10-9? Or am I being mental?
Ahhh - just realised that Everton were down to 10 men, and Tompko didn't take one.

just done some research on this and learnt a new rule:
Adrian isn't going ahead of Tomkins, when it's 10 v 11 the team with 11 have to pick an outfield player not to take a penalty.
Never knew that, I guess it's to ensure one team's best penalty taker isn't taking it the same time as the other team's worst although would have thought that should just be tough luck for having someone sent off. Good to see Jenkinson smash his one in.

he looked real nervous standing in the centre circle as the penalties were all being scored, and I had very little faith in him when he went up to take his. Fair play to the lad, though, he fair smashed it into the roof of the net.

Joel immediately held up his hand apologizing after celebrating the equalizer, he wasn't actually trying to be a wind up, he was just going back to goal while celebrating and it looked bad. Still didnt stop us giving it to him for the rest of the game, especially when he missed his pen.
9-8 was right, everton missed second and 10th, west ham missed 5th.
First time to an FA cup game, think I picked a good one.
I did see him apologise, but frankly after all the timewasting (that was chronic) I was convinced he was a cod and was made up when he missed the penalty.
As (another) side note, why do refs hardly ever book goalkeepers for timewasting? All through extra time (especially when it was 1-2) he was taking forever to take goalkicks, and all the ref would do would be to signal to hurry up. He eventually booked him about half way through the 2nd period of extra time, but if he had done that as soon as he started timewasting (immediately after the equaliser in normal time) I might have got home before midnight. What also pisses me off (now I am off on one) is that for all the ref acknowledging the time wasting and holding his watch, they never put any actual extra time on to compensate. In the first period of extra time, Robles took nearly a minute each time he took a goal kick (4 times), with each one aknowledged by the ref. At the end of the period of extra time, there was one additional minute. It makes no fudgeing sense.
*and breathe*
Watched the first 20 minutes so far against Hull. Long balls to Carroll and not so much ball pace and movement. Hope it gets better from here, cos so far it looks like you've forgotten how to play football again, and Carroll and Nolan starting...
commentators: Big Sam, not sure if that's to do with his character or his height
we were rancid in the first half but were excellent in the second, and scored some great goals.
Fat Sam will tell you it was his tactics that made the difference and that's partly true. First half players didn't get going and dropping Downing back into the front of the diamond plus some better performance from Song made the difference.
If we needed a wake up call for complaceny tomorrow morning, then the results from this round so far will serve us well.

Any truth in Reid to Spuds at the end of the season on a free?

Normal service is now officially resumed. Thank fudge....beginning to get high on hope! Fat Sam Out.
thinking very seriously about getting a season ticket for next season - the last at the Boleyn. It is a fair bit of money (£925) which will be very frustrating if we revert to type and spend most of the year playing like we did on Saturday, but I think that I will go for it.

You read it here first.....could it happen?

Just watch the last 30 or so minnutes of the Sunderland game. Happy with what I saw. Sahko great once again, good goal. Collins was a brick wall. Undecided on Fat Sam but at this moment, its probably best for him to stay. #COYI
just got back from the game, and it was terrible (and cold - way colder than what I was dressed for). Sunderland are a fudgeing terrible team, and on the day we were not much better. Funniest part of the day was when Adam Johnson came out to warm up and the chant started "Adam Johnson, it's kids for a quid"

I have purchased a season ticket for next season - the last at the Boleyn. Very, very excited. Really hoping we make a bold managerial appointment who gets us back to playing decent football. If that is not possible, appoint Di Canio and let's just have a season of madness.
Oh, and the way it is finishing, this season can just fudge off.
Curbishley back to the Hammers! Heard it from me first.
will not happen - we will get Klopp, with Ancelotti and Benetiz as his assistants, and Mourinho as his kitman.
