Bournemouth coming up would be brilliant. As would, for purely selfish reasons, Derby. The other team not really fussed about. Ipswich and Boro both due another crack at it.

I said we'd be about eighth on your points tally. I quoted it above. I was right. You were spectacularly wrong on all counts. Happy to help.

I think it is wishful betting patterns in the north east. Seems very unlikely. Stranger things have happened though.

Do Groundhog Day.

Just for completeness, I know no one cares and NickG will do his usual of denying he ever posted things even when they are posted back at him. Anyway - was 9 points from these ten games "the level required for 5th/6th" as it was according to our expert? Well, we actually got 14 points to land fourth. 9 points would have got us 28 points and we'd be level with Swansea now in eighth. Kinda like I said it would all those weeks ago. I know, give me a medal. But really, don't. Because that was fuc king pi ss easy for any idiot to foresee. Anyway, like I said NickG will pretend he never posted any of this so it's almost like it's all pointless. Happy new year.

We also had a load of horsesh it from forum fuc kwits about how putting out decent squads in the league cup would cripple our league campaign but it hasn't. We're fourth having played the maximum number of LC games this half season. Fancy that. So, how is resting players in a tournament that is played on the weekends going to help our CL push? It will make fu ck all difference. We should go for silverware. CL qualification is pretty remote, as is winning the FA Cup, but we should be going for it in both. Thankfully, whatever you think or say, that's precisely what Koeman will do.

What point are you making here? We gave the cup a good go, playing more than decent teams in all rounds and we are still fourth despite the supposed crippling effect league cup football was supposed to have on our season. It can be done, we're fourth.

Pretty sure he was sacked after losing a tyne/wear derby for which he dropped Alan Shearer to much Geordie outrage.

Trevor Brooking said something about them but frankly he was nothing more than an employee of West Ham who was paid for his services at the time so really he should shut the fu ck up and not be allowed to buy tickets or something.

I thought being an utter pr ick to everyone you encounter was the only way to succeed in business. I learnt that somewhere once. I know it is the fast track way to get the chief exec role at AC Milan anyway. Gold and Sullivan are bastards but they are West Ham's bastards.

He's okay, thanks to the power of prayer.

That's all jolly nice, but nothing "finally ended" yesterday, did it?

If its "still early days" then how did our top 6 chances "finally end" according to you yesterday then? You're a pointless troll and most people here know it.

Pretty sure that isn't every single manager that has ever been sacked after playing WBA.

100% this. Just pointless confirmation bias.

My prayers were answered then.

I've voted for every nomination with my name in. Lots of Noms but I feel I won't win anything, making me the forum Craig David. Again.

Are we playing Aussie rules football now?

Thank god you posted those videos up MLG.

Can you point to where the Kick It Out campaign state that they feel Clark Carlisle requires no medical support and can be cured entirely through prayer? Show me the quote. Don't ever think you can give me a rebuttal you fu cking autistic.

You have excelled yourself on this thread MLG and managed to position yourself as more of fu cking idiot than I already had you down as. How's your letter of complaint to Kick It Out coming along? Don't forget to share it with us.

You seem to be confusing prayer with asking a genie for three wishes. Prayer can be a huge comfort for people and a chance for reflection and to give thanks.

There's a little coterie of Ched Evans sympathisers on this forum, in fairness. She was asking for it m'lud. And he's still appealing it so he probably will get cleared of all the charges or something. And anyway, we've all done it when we've had a few beers, ain't we lads? etc. Pompey fans don't have the monopoly on Ched - related tw attery.

The players could welcome him with a little guard of honour.

Oh yes. They've owned him all along according to forum legend.
