    I was particularly impressed that Spurs pressed West Ham at the end of the game. The aggressiveness of Romero, Bentancur and to some extent Kulusevski is the difference between playing on the back foot and playing on the front foot.

    It's the BBC London commentary, as West Scam don't have a club commentator

    Which begs the question as to where the money saved by scamming a stadium out of the British taxpayer is being spent...

    Phil Parry. Seems odd to have one of our youth coaches as co-commentator.

    They have been a great combo on BBC London for years now.

    Pitchside footage:


    I thought this would be ****, but there are some interesting shots, just not necessarily of the game.
    Seeing some of the West Ham fans asking for pictures with our players is a little strange, though.
    Nice that they included a short shot of Paul Coyte's return and his reaction to the crowd.

    Antonio elbow on Dier that went unpunished, did the referee mistake him for Sadio Mane

    That should be a N match ban.
    Absolutely no reason why his arm while running into Dier would go like that.

    You didn't think I'd forget, did you?!

    YESSS ladies and gents, DH's AwayDays is back with season 4 episode 4 and we've got a London Derby special today with a trip to KUMB (Knees Up Mother Brown) to see our cockney neighbours, who in the last 18 months have actually become a semi-decent side but whose fans now seemingly think are 2011 Barcelona the way they go on.

    Enjoy :)

    PRE-MATCH

    Spurs have absolutely no excuse here after 120 minutes last night.
    You're right and we didn't.

    Must be time to fake a COVID outbreak? I heard all the big clubs are doing it these days.
    Problem is you're not a big club, mate.

    Turns out that the dust storm wasnt from the sahara it was Spurs doing the annual spring clean of their trophy cabinet.
    God help us when you lot try cleaning yours.

    Stop Kane and Son and you’ll stop the Spuds.
    Yeah that sounds pretty easy.

    We will win this cos I can not watch it - thank me later !
    Can I thank you instead?

    Massive West Ham to give the tiny tottering hotslags a pasting.
    Massive West Ham = Oxymoron.

    Much rather play for Moyes than Conte
    Said no one ever.

    Hope we keep them out first 20 mins, then take advantage
    Yeah about that...

    FIRST HALF

    Took Masuaku 9 minutes to give the ball away leading to a goal
    Impressive.

    We're back to being defensively weak
    You've generally been weak for many decades, shouldn't be a problem.

    Spurs will rue that Son miss
    Ok.

    Antonio is causing them issues
    Is he ****, Romero swallowed him whole.

    Romero is a dirty ****
    Beautiful.

    Starting to get embarrassing this.
    Like you expected anything else!

    Moyes knows how Kane plays, he has changed system to combat that yet we still let him do that.
    "Let him"... ok, the man's just too good.

    Gonna get ironed out here
    Irons getting ironed, bosh!

    Zouma having a poor game
    Cat kicking ****.

    I know we hate to admit it but Kane is ridiculous.
    He is... he really is.

    They seem to be taking Rice out of the game too.
    Fried Rice... Yep, got my jacket.

    SECOND HALF

    So many snivelling snide arseholes made for this club. Romero, Reguillon, Hjolberg, Kane, Son. What an unlikable bunch.
    <laugh> I love it.

    ****ing ell long ball, flick on, goal
    Simples.

    Bugger. I hate Son more than any other
    We love him though and that's what counts.

    Son is a **** but we could do with him in our squad
    Yeah, no ****.

    Said it ALL ****ing game!! High line vs those 2 is suicide
    Keep it up!

    POST MATCH

    Let them enjoy their big day, still won f*** all for years
    Show us your honours list again please, mate.

    Add Kane and Son to our side and we would be exceptional.
    That could happen... on Football Manager.

    I hate Harry Kane but I thought he was exceptional today.
    Standard.

    Also that prick Reguilon at left back needs a good hiding, a proper snidey c*nt
    Reguilon is one snidey little prick as well.
    Regulon, Romero and Son .. awful dirty and snide
    Something tells me they don't like Reguilon too much, amongst a few others.

    Kane dropped into Rice’s area and made him look ordinary. No other player has done that that I can recall.
    It's just what he does.

    If we had Son and Kane upfront for us, we would be in the champions league, can we sign this quality of player in the summer?
    Can you **** <laugh>

    We were undone by Kane and Son today, the greatest premier league combination ever
    Say it again, go on.

    Oh, AND I ****ing despise that Conte **** as well. Smug git.

    Why are West Ham fans banging on about trophies?
    Our failure to win anything since 2008 is bad, but they haven't won one since 1980.
    They've also won slightly less overall than Wanderers FC, who dissolved in 1887.

    As I always say, Chelsea without massive cash injections are just West Ham without the claret.
    Same ****ty racist/antisemitic fans acting like knockoff Ray Winstones.

    Absolutely. So again I wonder why so many are (allegedly) trying to buy Chelsea for billions. It might be argued (shudder) that with the larger, and mostly free, stadium, West Ham which would be much cheaper and might be a better investment.

    Owners probably want to own the ground for land value, but that's also a problem for Chelsea.
    The Stamford Spammers' most valuable commodity is probably their brand, followed by their academy.

    Brilliant but frightening to watch, he does at least one per game in that situation
