    Please, for the love of God, do everything in your power as a fan of West Ham to ensure this never happens.

    Pardew is doing a fantastic job, I'm very impressed with him, especially considering when he started here he was pretty much universally hated for replacing Hughton. As for Ba, he hadnt scored in pre season, or our first 4/5 games but then we discovered he had been partially fasting for Ramadan and one week later, hat trick!

    I've tried to follow your results what with there being Nolan (who will always be fondly remembered for putting 4 past Sunderland) and Allardyce (who will not, haha). How is the season going for you?

    And we went down with a team that on paper should have been top 10.

    Allardyce did brilliantly in the transfer market, but the games have been scrappy.

    Regarding Cole, haha tell me about it! Some of our fans think he is class, the others just cant see it..

    Sounds familiar. Unfortunately it progressed from scrappy to downright turgid! We have a tradition of playing carpet football and I think 60yard balls being lumped to the two smallest strikers in the PL (Owen and Martins) just got too much for most. I don't actually blame Fat Sam for all his misplaced arrogance irritates me, I blame Fat Fred for ever appointing him. He clearly was a bad fit given his style of football. I thought the worst when he joined you guys, because the hammers have a tradition of playing what I call proper football.

    He is crap imo. Can't see how anybody rates him. Glady we just go for young hungry players with a good resale value. Cole doesn't fit the bill thank god :)

    I think we will use Allardyce to get promotion then try to get someone to play good football in the prem. The fans are already getting sick of the style of football.

    I thing that has been positive is that we have got rid of dead wood and have got more british players that know the league

    I cant complain about Pardew or Ba. Pardew has the team playing well and Ba is doing what strikers do best, scoring goals.

    Di Canio said he needs to prove himself before he becomes our manager, jury is still out at Swindon.

    Hoping you beat the Spuds next Sunday and Ba gets a hat-trick!

    Pardew done well, Ba took time to settle and knew after his time at West Ham he would be on fire the second he got his first goal, sure enough he got a hat trick that day, albeit against a very poor Blackburn team.

    So do we! I like you. You say clever things ha.

    Nice to see that you're not bitter or anything about Ba leaving, I remember there were a few Hammers fans calling for his head and calling him a traitor. Only a minority obviously but y'know, takes all sorts I suppose!

    Thanks and hope you do well this season! :)

    I wasnt bitter about Ba leaving, we offered him more money to stay but said he wanted prem football. Cant complain about that.

    You want rid of him because he doesn't have any long term plans.

    Hamemrs, please stop the UK's most horrible club and fans (Middlesbrough) from going up to the Prem! You need to win the league. I love seeing the smoggies in the lower leagues too much for them to return to the top flight! Scum of the earth
