Rohl now likely at Rangers. Think it will be night and day with how Rangers do going forwards.

[Saint NL]

Joe Lumley going to Sheffield Wednesday as an emergency loan

[Dr. Kucho]

James Ward-Prowse not in the West Ham squad for personal reasons according to LiveScore.

Under Potter a starter and has now been left out completely.

KWP and Matty Fernandes both started. And both subbed off at half time...

The personal reasons are Nuno doesn't rate him and is never going to pick him. This was established several weeks ago.

They were unable to compete with the physicality of the Brentford team.

West Ham fans not at all happy with owners, players, manager and team performances.

So we are not the only ones!!!

[suewhistle]

That'll teach West Ham not to pinch our players..😃

Joe Lumley made 4 magnificent saves tonight for Wednesday. What were the club thinking letting him go? He’s smashing it for Wednesday whilst we’re watching Rome burn with Baz on the bench and McCarthy playing football statues. Another absolute shit show. Thanks Rasmus, cheers Les, FFS Eric Black

I think if we fail to beat Sheff Wed at home in a couple of weeks and Lumley gets man of the match for them this place will combust

Lumley just made one of the best saves I've ever seen 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Thierry Small and Ings both came on around 60minscin the PNE v Sheff Utd games.

Small made an immediate impact, operating as a left wing back. He got a decent pass in, followed by losing possession and then a tame shot.

As Utd pushed to get an equaliser, he dropped back a bit. His air clearance nearly gifted Utd their goal. But he looked to pick out an attacking pass, that Martin would have moved him out the club for. It didn't reach it's target. But PNE won the next ball resulting in Smith missing a sitter. A shift in momentum Martin would never understand, and a good spot from Small.

Ings had less sight of the ball. Preston worked really hard all game. In the closing stages, he fell over to not get a penalty and put a last second free kick over the bar. But you could see him lurking in the middle, just waiting for a ball. He had a decent couple of touches to get things moving further back, but not much in front of goal, mainly due to service.

Small a wing back much better forward than back, who looks to have bulked up a bit. Ings an impact sub, but still with that eye for goal.

Walker-Peters on the scoresheet for West Ham. 

[East Kent Saint]

Not on the bench , he and Wham players looked pleased at the end ! 

[Saint_clark]

Former Saint Aaron Martin has stepped into management with Havant and Waterlooville. Shame about the choice of club but good luck to him otherwise. 

[ChrisPY]

Proud moment to see 3 ex Saints contributing to goals in a Champions League game tonight.

That's quite the assessment of Wilcox from the crazy Frenchman.

Fraser Forster going to Bournemouth.

[spyinthesky]

Notice that Calum Slattery was in the Motherwell midfield that beat Celtic recently.
Apparently he is on approx £2,500 per week, probably less than some of our U21's

Was highly rated at one point, with press reports of Chelsea and Arsenal wanting to take him from us when he was about 16/17.

Didn't he have a nasty injury around that time as well? 

I remember him getting a few games after that, then just disappeared. Wasn't there rumours he fell out with Ralph that preseason (would've been 2019?) about coming back overweight, and was bunged off with Austin and co, rather than going on the preseason tour?

Eric has sussed him out as yet another charlatan who talks a good game but delivers nothing. Steals a living by saying all the right things but nothing to back up the words.

Meghoma getting destroyed for Rangers at Celtic

[Pedantic Pete]

Gotta feel for Matty Fernandes who has, if wiki is correct, played in 50 premier league games now with only 5 wins.

Helped create one of the best academies on earth and was the architect of our promotion.
