I'd be a bit worried after you look what it's done to Newcastle this year. However, if we are going to progress into Europe and challenge towards the top of the division, then its a step that we need to take. We'd just have to make sure we bolster the squad a bit more in the summer.

Tossers

Surprised that they've left it this long before breaking the story whatever it is...

Strange you say that, a few of my mates go on WestHamOnline.net as they said the same about KUMB!

There might be....just nothing confirmed yet. Bit of fun, I do agree he looks a bit small for Boruc, but struggled to think what else it could be. Maybe we've got a new manager . Be a deserved new contract for Corky if it is him. Been superb since he's been here.

Isn't Bolasie the one who scored against us for Plymouth in our promotion party in L1? When we won 3-1? He stood out as their best player that day from what I remember if that was indeed him. Looked handy, if a little raw, not seen much of him for Palace though. Sure we have got plenty of players being watched at the moment, but would be surprised if we're looking at the NPC for transfers with Poche in charge. Wouldnt surprise me if all our signings this summer are young internationals.

Saints just put this on Twitter... Southampton FC ‏@SouthamptonFC 2m Who are @Wattsypics and @TomCoull shooting today? #saintsfc Boruc new contract perhaps? Or maybe no news at all...

Any excuse to post those pictures MLG ! lol They are a strange bunch though West Ham fans. They're a bigger club than us, but really don't have a transfer policy. It's in a way similar to QPR but on a smaller scale. Buy 'prem players' who are on big wages but are generally big club rejects. Certainly be interesting to see what happens with them in the summer. I remember being old constantly last year when they signed Ravel Morrison from Man Utd, that he would get them promoted and then be key this season in the prem....Has he even played a first team game yet ? You could argue that we spent a lot this season, and we have for a club of our size. But they have been investments as well as being part of a transfer policy. Young technically talented players who we can groom into the way we want to play. The problem with signing older more established players coming from bigger clubs is that they are less likely to want to learn and think they have already made it. Add to that they're already on huge wages with nothing to prove, they're probably not the kind of personalities that we want at our club. I did used to like West Ham, but their fans are generally morons, and I cannot stand the way they play. Add to this staying up a few years ago down to Tevez who they didnt even own, and then spending over their means last season, being £100m odd in debt and still spending, and then now getting this top drawer stadium for barely anything, just makes me respect them much much less. I always said last season and the start of this season, that I would much rather go down playing great football with some upcoming exciting talent, than set up for a short term plan like WHU and QPR have done. I'll be surprised if we don't finish above them for the next few years atleast.

Have to say having just bought tickets for Swansea I was hoping we'd need to go there and win. It seems that if we beat WHU on Saturday we could be all but confirmed as safe and it will be a mid table nothing game! However I'm not complaining too much!! We can still finish above them after all...

Enjoyed reading that. Makes me not feel like I'm being completely bias thinking they should all be being considered. Could probably add J-Rod to that as well if he carries on playing like he has been.

I think Clyne, Shaw and J-Rod will play for England. Wouldn't be surprised if Lallana and JWP do as well at some point. I think J-Rod is a similar player to Welbeck, but would personally say at the moment that J-Rod is better.

Blakey....I think I'm right in saying Andy Carroll has never scored against us?!

My predictions better than Lawros !!

How did we lose at home to both of these sides ! Awful.

Shame about Liverpool not beating them.

Loads of empty seats.

So do I!

If someone offers us 15m then it would be hard to say no, but I genuinely think he'll be class next year. Get a pre season behind him and poche and he could be class. Don't doubt that his raw talent is potentially world class though.

I see Jordan Sibley also tweeted something to do with Adidas tonight. @jordansibley: Think it's fair to say that @adidasfootball and @chelseafc have upped the stakes in terms of new kit video teasers! http://t.co/cMkf4mQjCj

Personally think he could be huge for us next year

Annoying as means I won't be able to go, sure they'll be a few who are in the same boat. Hopefully we'll be safe by then

Worrying that they're seeming to be reporting that he wants to leave...

Ha I don't really have an idea. And the GN is probably the worst horse race to bet on all year because of so many variables! But always worth a few quid on a couple of horses to raise personal interest!
