One Way Or Another

November 25th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Life

What a scary season it is in the Premier league this year.  We are a third of the way through and for most ofthe teams it could go one way or another.  This is not one of those years wherea gap has opened up at thebottom – not since Harry moved to Spurs anyway – […]

Hurry Up Harry

October 26th, 2008 · Comments Off on Hurry Up Harry · Life

I can’t wait until the morning.  I am really looking forward to telling Jayne who her club have got as a new manager.  When Harry Redknapp was in charge at West Ham she always used to laugh at him so she is not going to take it well.  Could be a good move for Spurs […]

Heartbreaker

October 5th, 2008 · Comments Off on Heartbreaker · Life

I really don’t know why I let myself get my hopes up with West Ham because they always do it: tease you with the chance of something good and then slip up.  This week we could have gone from 5th to 3rd if we had won, and we were going into a home game against […]

You Got That Right

October 4th, 2008 · Comments Off on You Got That Right · Life

It’s good to see that Match of the Day’s pundit Mark ‘Lawro’ Lawrenson can be as inane in writing as he is on air.  He has a weekly feature on the BBC Sport website where he predicts the results for the week’s Premier League games.   For each game he gives some opinions and says what […]

Release The Pressure

October 4th, 2008 · Comments Off on Release The Pressure · Life

If there is an award for best press conference of the year, I think Joe Kinnear must be a shoe-in.  For the real laughs you have to read through to the end where the Newcastle press officer steps in and tells teh everyone to forget the unequivocal slagging off that has gone on and it […]

The Only Way Is Up

September 28th, 2008 · Comments Off on The Only Way Is Up · Life

I was listening to the radio just now and the DJ was talking about his football team which, unfortunately for him, was Spurs.  Trying to keep a positive attitude he said that being at the bottom of the league means that now the only way is up. Not strictly true though is it?  I think […]

What’s Going On?

September 28th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Life

Could this be the season that all three newly-promoted Premier League teams survive?  I know it is only early days in the season but already Hull have as many points as Derby got in the whole of last season after beating Arsenal and West Brom have managed a couple of wins to keep them in […]

Locked Out

September 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments · Life

D’oh!  We just don’t like playing Watford in cup games do we?   They beat us 1-0 in the FA Cup last year and now they have won 1-0 again to knock us out of the League Cup.  I’m not too upset though: it just means fewer opportunities for some of our more delicate players to […]

A Sunday Smile

September 21st, 2008 · Comments Off on A Sunday Smile · Life

Dynamo Horsham did well this week in the Guardian fantasy football league.  It was all looking a bit poor yesterday, but 6 out of the 11 first team were playing today and they all did OK.  In fact the team picked up 147 points in the week, which is the 59th place for the week […]

Bring It On Home

September 21st, 2008 · Comments Off on Bring It On Home · Life

Dear Football Association,  can we play all our games at home please?  Love & kisses, West Ham. Early days yet, but are we going to have a ‘fortress Upton Park’ season?  So far we have won all three home games, giving the Hammers the best home record in the league.  At the same time we […]
