    In an interview before the blackpool game tonight he's commented on the pitch as "Its a poor pitch and unfortunately not suitable for the type of football we try and play" Is he worried the ball wont bounce straight after they hoof it forward to cole or what? <laugh>

    Perhaps the penalty spot is a bit worn.

  4. If the pitch is lumpy, there is a danger of a piece of turf being hoofed up to Cole instead of the ball...

    I notice that they haven't appealed against Taylor's sending off yet. You know, the one where he pushed Sharp in the chest who then held his face like this.<doh>

    Delusional doesn't even come close for Fat Sam or their fans

    The deadline will have passed for the appeal so they have accepted the red card - no apology yet from Allardyce..... I'm not holding my breath

    What he probably means is "it's a good pitch which unfortunately will suit Blackpool's superior passing game."

    Haha, James Corden tweeted last night to a journalist that he wasn't "used to this top of the league stuff" - I politely pointed out that his team wasn't top............they're all delusional.

    Sullivan offered Demba Ba 45k p/w wages to stay at West Ham...I'm so glad I don't support West Ham. Make or break for them this season?

    Oh and they tried to bring in Tevez and Torres...

    Big Sam's clearly not the only one who's delusional at West Ham.

    Karen Brady is the most delusional, having a pop at how many red cards they have got. She then had a go at Sharp saying it's because players overreact to simple pushes.

    He was just deflecting blame for not winning the game. It's easy really, just say that the ref cost you the game and you are appealing the whole lot and the supporters buy it every week. Steve Cotterill used to love this...but Forest fans have worked him out now. Fortunately Nigel doesn't try and con us.

    Yes - his comments over the Kevin Nolan sending off were ridiculous; for which he was widely criticised in the Press. So were his comments following the Saints game. Nothing he says hereafter will surprise me. I actually had alot of respect for him until this past few weeks; he's in a world of his own...

    It seems a number of Saints fans have swopped Poyet for Big Sam as a target to deride!! Who is going to be the target next season? Thoughts? By the way shouldn't we be supporting SFC rather than taking cheap shots at WHU??

    I think it has something to do with the fact that they're our main rivals at the moment, and that Fat Sam accused Billy Sharp of cheating when he did nothing of the sort. HTH.

    And we are Hammers main rival, so we get slightly over-the-top comments aimed at us, from them.
