West Ham


Jah


Key players not fit yet (we were excellent for 40 mins on Saturday)

Signings - jury's out but a bit underwhelming to be honest -apart from the 2 young ones who are both going to be terrific

Some adjusting to the new stadium & bigger pitch

Not sure why we sold Tomkins

Not panicking but mid-table

Europe was an embarrassment exit ( but may be a blessing)


Olympic Stadium -stewardings awful - not run by club BTW; standing was ignored at UP but now not being ignored (man City had very similar problems if you reacall when they moved; as I said a few weeks back, I'm worried about the potential for trouble when we play the likes of Spurs/Man U/ Chelsea with current away fan arrangements.


Onwards & upwards


PS unlucky with injuries

City were good in the first half, but I felt we backed off far much...Mourinho's liking for zonal marking explains that.

At least he admitted that he goofed playing Lingard and Mikky after both coming back from injuries, and that he shouldn't have changed a winning team.

Smalling was injured and in his absence Blind and Bailly have been good pre-Derby.

A lot of the squad that haven't played much will surely get a run out on Thurs in the Europa League, including Smalling and Rashford.

I thought we came back into the game well and on another day could've got a draw or even a win...

West Ham's first 'big' game is against Arsenal in early Dec, so plenty of time to sort out the stewarding/standing up issue. Not sure if that's classed as high risk but a month later Utd rock up and I hear revenge is in the air for the attack on the Utd bus...

Wise move PGC!

I still love Roy Keane


Speaking on last night?s Champions League Highlights show the former Celt said: ?They need to do a lot better in Europe. Easier said than done, of course.


?But even in qualifying, they were poor. They scraped through.


?The whole mindset has to change. Don?t accept, especially away from home, being the whipping boys of Europe.


?It?s Celtic, a huge club.?


Keane, Martin O?Neill?s international assistant who spent six months at the club in 2006, added: ?When they qualified for the group, the celebrations, for me, were way over the top.


?I actually thought they?d won the competition! People were hugging each other, the manager, the coaches, the players.


?It?s not Altrincham, it?s Celtic!?

At least we get to play at Wembley now and then and have won plenty of trophies there. And it's all going so well at the Tax Free Tesco Stadium isn't it.


West Ham's latest glorious European jaunt has been noted and already laughed at so I won't tread on your toes again by reminding you just how far you got. BTW: What was the name of that team again?

Watching a bit of Soccer Saturday one of the pundits was asked if Liverpool could keep it up. His reply was that he didn't know but last season those teams who played the 'pressing' game (Liverpool & Spurs) ran out of steam in the later stages. Not being in Europe has got to help Liverpool in the league.

    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
