Probably all (including magedia) trying to work out how West Ham can be shire and an easy start but also a good team that they were so close to beating if only a couple of decisions, bounce of the ball, luck had gone their way but against a team of West Hams obvious quality there is nothing wrong with coming away with **** all! Like Orwells 1984 for them lot tonight!
I don't watch North East News as I live away but I bet there mention of West Ham starting to finally show the improvement under a new manager! There will be at least one or two posting that the West Ham were beat and the one they lost to are completely different as the new gaffers hard work started to show. We would have lost by 5 or 6 today and they would have won by 6 plus on opening day!
Quite right mate. They’ll have to somehow find a way to process that information so it becomes palatable. Excuses will range from involvement in Europe to sinister forces in the cartel desperately seeking to hold them back. Normal football supporters can choose to criticise their owners but the Mags daren’t exercise that option as they're scared to upset their overlords. It’s hilarious watching them squirm and attempt to formulate credible excuses for possibly failing to beat little old Sunderland. Unfortunately, for them, they’ve been so arrogant no one will swallow any of it … … not even the Mags themselves and that’s what’s killing them.
