Our catchment area grows by the hour. Chelsea winning the champions league is the best thing that could happen to us. People will think English football is on the up again and there will millions of people in Africa and America watching last night who will now want a premier league team to support but will not want to go for the obvious. With us being a club on the up and close Londonthey are bound to chose us as we are easy to get to when they come here on holiday. Also don't forget the whole of Euorpe is within 4 hours of Southampton plane and with us being the nearest premier league club to Gatwick I'm sure there will be loads of fans from abroad planning to take advantage of this next season.

I'm not sure if this is a fantastic article well written and great news for the club, or all journalists are liars and making up stories about us. Perhaps our intelligent posters can help us.

Yeah Thomas Pink is off the peg rubbish.

Do you ask yourself when looking what Serge from Kasabian would wear?

Think that wase because he didn't get on with duck lips. Think he's one of them that might be alright be a bit of work.

Always wear double cuff cut away collar. A Decent set of cuff links is vitally important for it to work. I Wear boss, armani and mont blanc.the shirt can be worn up with a tie and suit or down with a pair of well fitting trousers. And shoes are important. Wests are good. Or from the high street, Jones. The cuff should always show an inch below your suit jacket sleeve. Price wise if you have cash Paul Costello, Thomas pink or Boss cannot be bettered. Pink is my personal choice. Mid range budget the M&S sartorial range are good at £40 a shirt or buy one get one half price. TM Lewin worth a look as they do different length sleeves making sure your cuffs aren't longer than they need to be. Next city collection are decent at £30 a pop but generally will be seen on all the wannabes. Less than that you're a clown and I'm wasting my time. Remember you buy cheap you buy twice. Enough said, no? That'd all you need to know. Hope that helps.

This. West Hams fans were much louder and better and when shots of the crowd it was mainly lads, no helmets in fancy dress. For that reason alone they deserved their victory and one in the eye for fancy dress bulbs. Lad fans 1 fancy dress freaks 0 FACT

Why are you getting so upset nipper? Anyway. You mentioned stats so how's about this one. Only 2% difference in possession percentages yet Blackpool were playing brilliant passing football and knocking it about like Barcelona yet West Ham spent the whole game playing hoof ball. How can this be? Trying and reply without swearing and thumping your keyboard please.

Resorting to that is a clear sign that you are losing the arguement. The 3 moments of note from West Ham, the two goals and Nolans shot against the bar came from good football and quality, not hoof ball. Just because you don't like it it doesn't make it any less true.

Matt Taylor did for the first goal. End of arguement.

They are though. If we are so are they. A big club, good fan base a lot of history and tradition and a good team. Like it or not, they are a premier league club.

They play direct at times. We play direct at times They play good football at times we play good football at times. Actually go and watch some football and make up your own mind rather than basing it on what other clueless divs say on Internet mong boards sunshine.

And th first goal was a good cross and finish after Taylor broke down the left. Big difference between a decent cross and a long aimless punt.

Did you watch the game or did you just watch the stats on BBC player? The first Taylor broke down the left and put a great ball in for Cole who had pulled off his marker and finished well and the second came from a cross on th ground from Nolan after a ball out wide, also played on thE ground. They didn't play brilliant flowing football but they didn't play long ball either. Come on Marco, you clearly do to know what the f*ck you're talking about. You said Stoke don't pplay long ball because they get it wide and out crosses in. West Ham score both their goals today that way and they are a hoof ball team. Make your mind up sweetheart.

How much long ball did West Ham play today? That was your point was it not? And I think you need to watch the goals again sunshine.

Vaz Te? Maynard?

Not as bad as that f*cking bubble machine.

Everytime I've seen West Ham they've knocked it about well at time and also gone direct at times. They are no more long ball than we are yet on here people crack one out over the football we are supposed to play all the time. When in reality we dothe same as them.

Baptiste you mean.

This is utter ****** and a myth. How much long ball did they play today?

Fair play to Alladyce for signing Vaz Te, 12 goals since January and the goal that sends them up. Nige, go and sign Ince or Phillips, preferably Ince and maybe the keeper as well.

I've always thought he seemed like a decent guy.

Why is he?

Yep, 5 great chances. Can see West ham nicking one on the break. Ince looks mustard.

That Baptiste is a classy looking centre half. *hopes he hasn't give him the kiss of death *
