Excellent. To beat Brentford, any old way for me, it’s a great result.
When you think back to Brentford’s easy win here a few months back. What a difference.
Make no mistake, we beat a good team tonight.
Let’s hope there’s no injuries for Saturday night.
The cup, well you never know?
Let’s get back to the league now, can we get something Saturday night?

Whatever the result tonight we've played pretty well. Soucek has comfortably been MOTM. The man has been everywhere.
Those around would settle for penalties.
10 Mar 2026 16:57:59
Brook, love, love Soucek, always have. He seems to live & breathe Hammers, I'm sure, but I always loved his compatriot Vlad Soufal as well, another who ran his legs off for the club. I was pissed off when he was sold. 🙈😡 They are not machines, everyone has faults and makes mistakes. Football is about mistakes and loss of form. COYI. ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒
10 Mar 2026 18:10:21
It's, erm, Coufal.
10 Mar 2026 19:53:49
I sincerely apologise, Chris, for the misspelling. I probably won't sleep tonight now!!. 🙊🙊
11 Mar 2026 13:24:25
Did you get any sleep, Chelms? 😆
12 Mar 2026 16:21:17
Dabber, good one. 😂😂 Only after I kept repeating, it's not S it's C, it's not S it's C, but to be honest I am usually quite particular with my grammar & name spelling, but I wouldn't pick anybody up on it.
I think it's a bit demeaning!
I knew & know perfectly well how Coufal was spelt, possibly writing both names in the same paragraph, both pronounced Sssyish. Now that's not a word, I do know that. 😂😂 ⚒⚒⚒ COYI.

Quarter finals of the FA Cup: Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Southampton, Port Vale, Leeds and West Ham or Brentford.
Nuno must surely go for it. He'd be mad not to, we'd only be one game from Wembley and two from the final!
As long as we avoid Arsenal and City we could have a fair chance.
08 Mar 2026 19:10:31
I think it is one of those games where, if we go for it and win, then all is good, but if we have a bit of a mare, like the last round, and maybe lose, it's not such a big deal. It just means we can concentrate on not being relegated.
09 Mar 2026 08:39:27
Will watch the game tonight but not bothered if we lose, as you said we can then concentrate on the relegation battle. ⚒⚒⚒⚒⚒
09 Mar 2026 19:17:54
I see he has picked Pablo in the starting line up. I really hope I'm wrong, but I think that is a bad move because calf injuries have an annoying habit of recurring if not rested properly.
Knowing that this is a cup match, I would have thought it far more prudent to give 2 more weeks' rest.
Obviously the back room and health team know far more than me, but I just think a couple more weeks' rest would be better.
Leeds for the winner. Good draw.
10 Mar 2026 06:59:15
Well, looks like I was wrong again!
This team is showing such team spirit, it is so good to see. We all know we lack depth, but even fringe players, or players many have deemed not good enough, are showing they are worthy. I'm thinking Kante, Traore, Soucek, KWP.
That's not a dig at people who have suggested that, because I have done so with some of them. Don't want to go over the top coz things can go belly up, but I think there is a real unity in this side, and it should be celebrated. 😀
10 Mar 2026 08:58:53
What I think we have learned is: Diouf is significantly better than Scarles, Scarles is significantly better than Mayer. I've watched Mayer a few times now, and his distribution is as poor as it gets, and he rarely tackles or wins a tackle. He looks a division one player. Kante did better last night, and is worth a few more substitute run outs.
10 Mar 2026 09:47:33
Morning HD, I think we've all been guilty of being proven wrong. Disasi is a classic example, pretty much all of us felt it was a panic signing, yet he looks like another Dawson, nothing short of superb! I was disappointed with our summer marquis signing Fernandes, probably because I hadn't heard or seen much of him, but I have to say I absolutely love the lad! His passing and control of the game is everything that Paqueta threatened but never really delivered, and since the latter left, Fernandes has been free to play his own game.
Morning Brooking, totally agree about Mayer, he looks a little one-footed to me and out of his depth. Kante looked very good, and Pablo was excellent! We really are on a good, positive roll!
10 Mar 2026 10:05:36
Brooking, agree. Mayers, with due respect to him, stood out as the rubbish player of the night, def not PL standard yet or may never be!
Thought the rest of the team were terrific, with Bowen on fire & "he's sh----g Dani Dier". 😂🤣 Best he's played for many games. The 5 Penalties were all outstanding. 👍 Taken as they should be, at least only a couple of feet below crossbar height.
9 out of 10, all keepers go to ground for pens, bit riskier as can be blasted over, but along the ground is a rubbish pen for me even if scored! What an embarrassment for Quattara, that's what you get for trying to make a keeper look a p****, it was him that looked a p**** in front of 62,000. 😂😂 Well done lads, great display. COYI. ⚒⚒⚒⚒
10 Mar 2026 10:10:27
Hi Dabber, I can't argue with any of that. Especially on Disasi, as I was slagging him off that purchase and I'd never seen him play. He also seems to really like playing for us. We need to pay the money for him if we avoid the drop, as he has transformed the defence.
I agree regarding Mayers, he was the one weak link, I don't really see what he offers, and his crossing was poor also.
2 tough games coming up, let's hope we can get something out of one or both of these, or it could affect the confidence.

Wolves and Burnley are 1/150 to be relegated.
Spurs 6/4.
WHU 13/8.
Forest 11/4.
Leeds 11/2.
06 Mar 2026 12:57:30
Well, well, well! Who would have thought that Spurs are now favourites to go down with Wolves and Burnley. They next have 2 games with Atletico Madrid, where they could easily get a good hiding, with Liverpool away in between, and then a huge game v Forest.
Meanwhile, little old West Ham, under the guidance of Nuno (who I think has done an amazing job to get us in this position), quietly plod along, picking up points.
Yes, there have been questions over his decision making, but look what he's done with the same players Potter and Lop failed with.
I reckon 4 more wins and we are gonna be safe. I just can't see where Spurs can get anything the way they are playing.
06 Mar 2026 14:38:14
I agree with a lot of that, Mac. I think Spurs are really in trouble and have appointed another wrong person, who I don't think will be able to turn them around. But they may possibly twist again, like we did last summer. 😀 They also have a massive injury list.
If some of their players come back, they may pick up some results. I feel confident we will beat the drop, but I felt that way back in November, and we then went on an awful run. So things can change. Our squad is so threadbare that it is where a potential problem can come from.
06 Mar 2026 17:18:34
HI ED! Still.cant get on as JOYFULL so using another name
Hammer D That's. A major problem, no injuries required thanks, we certainly have a. Chance now.
14 points from 21 games, now 28 points from 29 games, many on here have slated Nuno. Fair enough, but he must be doing something right
Long way to go, so many thought, including myself., there's no chance, but after what I saw at Fulham, the effort, the energy, yes we do have a chance
Can see a lot of changes being made on Monday, whilst Brentford will probably play first team, but can't risk certain players

He will be off if they get relegated for sure. Not sure who would take a punt on him though.
07 Mar 2026 08:38:51
That's a good shout. I'll bet Kudus is glad he went to Spuds now.
05 Mar 2026 10:54:40
Next two games are very tricky. If we get one from City and Villa that would be fine. The games after are what we need points from; Wolves, Palace, Everton, Brentford. We need at 6-8 from that. After this it's Arsenal and Newcastle. Last game Leeds st home is going to be the game.
Personally, I think we'll get 12 more points.
05 Mar 2026 11:07:20
I have worked out 12-13 points is what we will get from this, too.
05 Mar 2026 12:15:10
I wish the Villa game was far sooner than it is, as they are currently in a dreadful run of form and would fancy us whilst they have players out injured.
City are like another Liverpool when it comes to playing us.
Doesn't seem to matter how well or bad their recent form is, they always smash us. Let's hope we are really on it and they have a bad day at the office.
05 Mar 2026 14:10:09
I think it's pointless trying to predict a run of results. Let's just take each game as it comes and hope we can do our best. Come on, lads!
05 Mar 2026 21:13:22
If Spuds keep this up, 3 points could do it. 🫣

Great result for us, can’t believe City didn’t beat Forest. City are going to be well up for it when they play us, but they have got to play Real Madrid a few days before so let’s hope they might get a few knocks. But as for last night we should’ve had a clear penalty as he moved his arm towards the ball. Their free kick at the end of the first half was never a free kick as he kicked our player on the back of the leg just like the Fulham player did for their penalty claim, but because it was in the box VAR could get involved.
Luckily, let’s hope we keep this going. Other teams down there are really starting to get nervous and worried that we’ve hit a bit of form. ⚒️⚒️
05 Mar 2026 07:17:31
The downside is that Forest have also hit a good patch. Still, Spurs appear to be in free fall. Come on, Palace!
05 Mar 2026 07:48:20
Come on, Tin. They haven't won in the league since January, and their first 3 results under the new manager are lose, lose, draw.
What was a 6 point gap is now 0 points.
05 Mar 2026 07:54:23
I think one thing to bring into the equation is that we only have to play Leeds, which is the last game. Spurs have to play both Leeds and Forest, so generally any result will benefit us in some way, and Forest and Spurs still have European football, which makes it difficult.
I still don't believe Palace are completely out of it. But, far more important, is to carry on playing decently while showing the fight and team spirit.
05 Mar 2026 08:57:35
We just need to keep winning our games and performing well. Man City will be hard, but also they know, without a minor miracle, the league is gone, so the focus will be on the Champions League, which benefits us imo, as they play Madrid in the week.
05 Mar 2026 11:03:08
Poor officiating could have cost us again. Apparently City should have had a pen. We can stay up, it's just a shame that terrible officiating will, and already has, had a part to play.
The team's been playing well since the turn of the year, and probably should have had more points on the board.
The board's gamble not to replace Paqueta could still come back to haunt us if we get any injuries.
05 Mar 2026 11:05:38
Irons, did you see the Man City - Forest game last night? I recorded it and watched it after the Fulham game. Forest played well and didn't give up. I hope it's a one off, but that performance shows they haven't given up and shouldn't be written off. Spurs, on the other hand, ...
05 Mar 2026 11:31:27
I agree. My son's a City season ticket holder, and he said Forest played well and looked to be decent. 4 managers in a season, though, and for that reason their owner probably deserves Championship football. Personally, I think and hope it will be Spurs that go down.
04 Mar 2026 23:11:29.
Just got home from the game. The last fifteen minutes were immense. I thought MOTM was Mads. He made two excellent saves. His distribution is very good and the defence looks happier with him. Everyone of our starting 11 put in a shift. I think we’re going to end fifteenth from top!
