 | Forum Reply | Nine lengthy injuries at the moment. at 09:49 21 Apr 2025
While I agree with this, I hope the club is looking at why these injuries occurred. It may just be an example of players trying too hard - literally and metaphorically over-stretched by the PL - but that level of lengthy injuries is going to affect any club campaign. |

It's not about McKenna being stubborn. But it is about him and Ashton learning from mistakes. Patently not a PL level defence (Greaves - why?), we need to think about foreign buys to make ourselves PL (and Championship) solid. |

Scowcroft made this point before the home Palace game. Unless we invest in foreign players we cannot compete at PL level. You get better technical skills for less money if you buy cleverly, Look at Cajuste (sadly probably lost to us now). We've been weirdly obsessed with English speakers. But mostly we need to sort out our defence - Greaves, anyone? |

What a toothless bunch the PL and all its officials are. |

Can you get a retrospective red if VAR sanctions the yellow during play? |

Nevertheless, Ashton should take it up with Howard Webb again. Citing player safety should get them exercised and it would be criminal if it doesn't. I thought the standard of refereeing would be so much better in the PL and it's still as bad as everywhere else - and the use of VAR mostly just backs the referee. |

Totally agree with this. The dropping of Morsy effectively gave the game to them and meant we were entirely parking the bus at home. They're a team that works on maintaining possession, and we ceded that to them consistently - no-one in midfield to really put their foot on the ball and play. Cajuste works best playing off Morsy. It felt like McKenna hoped we could do without Morsy, spending too much time looking at Sunday's game. But this was the game from which we needed to get something. |

Whatever he is - and he is a massive dickhead - we surely knew what he was like after the summer window. All this time and effort spent on Silly Philly when the absolute priority is surely another proper number 9? |

While I love Mckenna, and we have been affected by injuries, it does feel like he doesn't know his best front 3 behind the striker. There's been lots of chopping and changing, Clarke has admitted he's been brought in to play in a position unfamiliar to him, and it just feels very messy right now. 4 changes last night, only one forced upon him by injury. |

Failed again. It's hopeless on 15+. I've been to the San Siro, to Wembley twice, watched them most seasons since 1966, but still can't get a ticket to see them in the PL. |

I would LOVE IT if we confound the MOTD cabal and stay up! |

I’m hoping Martin stays in his job - and takes them down. That would be best for us. |

Agree with your point re the ballot percentage. I live in Bristol so can't get to every away match and have another commitment for the Southampton game. I'm hoping demand will flatten a bit later in the season. |
 | Forum Reply | West Ham Ticket Sales 'Profile' at 10:08 13 Sep 2024
I'm on 15 points, tried yet again and failed to get a ticket. I've supported my team since 1966, but I'm now effectively barred from getting to watch my team live by this system. |

Totally agree with this. The Beeb is desperate to hang on to their diminishing rights. |
