    well that's that "Winning First, Style Second." Looks like we are in for a slogfest for the rest of the season to grind out points. "I want to start defensively, we have to start there and get some clean sheets." "My ambition is short term. I have to win the games"

    Yes yeold, saying we’ve got a good manager and he’s back in work, and happy with six month contract so he can take a look at London and we can take a look at David Moyes
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Also how we have a strong squad and shouldn’t be in the position we in

    Well, obviously. We’re in the relegation zone. I’d love to see your reaction if a manager came in while we sat 18th in the league and said ‘I’m not worried about winning games or points, I just want to play good football’.

    He wants to focus on winning

    Good enough for me, that’s what we need desperately right now

    He said at the end he is talking to to "Stuart" for a coach role, I assume he means Pearce.

    Hopefully he will be able to find enough players to put on the pitch!

    I am just happy to have found someone other than the owners who believe in the appointment and are willing to go on record.

    "It is good for West Ham, they are getting a good manager,"

    You complain after every defeat/game about the abysmal defending then when the new manager says he going to concentrate on the defence you complain again.

    Can't please some people!

    The massiah speaks ;ok

    What are you talking about lol.

    As far as i was aware most of our defensive mistakes as pointed out before were down to individual errors rather than how the manager set them out. But if you want to take a pop at me to make a point keep on lad.

    I like everything Moyes has said so far.

    Still not convinced yet but wasn’t with Bilic at first but will give him time and opportunity to let me eat humble pie again

    If the training intensity was that poor why as Club Captain didn't Noble speak to Bilic about it.

    How do you know he didn't?

    I have nothing useful to say, I just want to make sure my new username is working.

    Well if he did why was he asking him what went wrong surely he would have known

    Yeah.

    The thing is when you do that this site quotes your new user name on your old posts. So you are in effect eulogising over our new manager even whilst commenting on our old one when he was still in situ ;hmm

    Foresight.

    Historical revisionism.

    I’m so confused as to what to think now.
    Tomorrow I will wear my pants back to front.
    And put a small stone in my shoe just to make me slightly more uncomfortable than I currently am. Good job it’s only football and nothing terribly important. ;whistle

    Decent press conference glad he said some nice things about Slav , he seems focused and knows what the problems are. Here's hoping he can get us back to winning ways soon
  • whupathmanwhupathman
    I have not been this annoyed about a manager since Rodent, I hope I am wrong, I even survived watching he who shall not be named, the Scottish manager (mark 1) ;nonono ;weep coyi

    Nobody reads my new posts, let alone my old ones.

    Is there a person in the football world in a worse situation than Moyes? The level of negativity and vituperation at his appointment has been extreme. The next run of fixtures is daunting. If he smiles and is confident, then he will be called arrogant; if he is grim and realistic, he will be called defeatist. There is a sizeable body of fans itching for the excuse to boo him (and the owners). I didn't want him to be our manager, but I have a lot of sympathy for him right now.

    Did all these anti-Moyesians really think Klupp was about to down tools at Liverpool and come to us or that Guardiola was going to walk out on Citeh and come to us or that Dyche would leave Burnley where he is loved and come to us? I could go on but lets face the future with what we have; a manager who was a very good manager only a few years ago. Yes, he was charmed away from his safety zone by Fergie and since then has not performed to the same level but I believe he can regain his mojo at a club like West ham and until I see different I will continue to believe that and get behind him.

    So many of our fans are so deluded it is hard to believe.

  • Cuz1Cuz1
    My thoughts on Moyes are only my opinion, I believe the owners can decide when they like to make a change but it’s the changes they make and then the quotes we should have got rid in the summer that concern me, I hope he proves me wrong I really do and have stated on numerous occasions we will stay up not because of Moyes but because it’s a poor league and they will reward him with a new contract for doing what we were going to do anyway

    Steady there Noble...

    Who made you our lord and master.

    Fans can want what they want. We can dream. What we don’t deserve is a condescending look down their noses look at us look from other fans.

    We don’t have to like the choice of manger neither should we keep quite about it.
