An honourable mention goes a Mattie Taylor of Portsmouth for his stunning volley against Everton. I've seen people lob goalkeepers from that distance, and I've seen Ivan Campo score from a similar length with a daisy cutter, but I've never seen anyone strike one on the volley from that far out. Phenomenal.

Oily... do me a favour and pop down the turrets will you? If you could just install some anti-sven devices around the ground - just in case the blighter tries to sneak in and take residence in Mr Pardews vacant office.

Perhaps if messrs Reo Coker, Harewood and Zamora had shown the same enthusiasm on the park as they clearly do in various gents outfitters and trendy London fleshpots we'd be a lot higher in the table and Pardew would still have a job to go to.
I'm not alone in my opinion either. I've just come from the unofficial Hammers forum and the place is seething with rage at the new owners and awash with sympathy for Pardew who is widely perceived as being let down by his players.
Well it's Man u at home next week and I guarantee you that most if not all of the 2 bob lightweights and show ponies that have disgraced the shirt recently will give the performance of their lives as they bask in the limelight which the so called "glamour fixtures" bring.
A well it's a fait accompli now so who next for the poisoned chalice.?
For me I can't see beyond Alan Curbishly, a local boy and ex hammer (sadly I'm old enough to have seen him in his pomp ) a well respected tactician and man manager who worked wonders at Charlton on a limited budget and a pretty mediocre set of players TBH.
Some of the boys are talking up Terry Venables on the website. Again a good choice but may prove unpopular with a section of the fans due to his "Spuds" connection.
As far as I'm concerned as long as the new incumbent turns us round and makes a few decent signings in the January window I dont mind who gets it.
Arsene Wenger being the honourable exception Blimey I've just gone all coldOh golly Oh gosh Had a lie on the couch with a nice bit o' posh from Burnham-On-Crouch:mad:

I was sad to see Pardew go. Clubs need to realise that success is built on stability, not replacing the manager every time you have a bad patch. There were even some Liverpool fans calling for Benitez's head after Liverpool's poor start. If Alex Ferguson had started out at Man Utd in the current climate, he'd have been sacked before he'd won his first trophy.

Can't say I am excited by the prospect of Curbishley being the guv'nor. I'm not convinced he has got the pedigree to actually take an average club forward. He never did it at Charlton. At least AP had a vision - it's just a pity that the players thought that last years success meant that they can rest easy this year. How wrong they are being proved.
I never believe players or managers when they rule themselves out of a potential transfer or appointment to management. Sven can rule himself out all he likes but I bet he still gets a phone call from Egg!

Oily, the Beeb website still seems to suggest that Sven is in the running for the post of manager..I think that should make you freeze.
As someone who has always liked West Ham (wee apart from Bowyer) I hope they get out of this mess soon. Tevez has been working hard IMO.
I think I watched too much of football over the weekend and ended up with an upset tummy due to lack of sleep.
On saturday a bit of Premiership action and then late night saw
Barcelona defeat Real Sociedad 1-0 and then a pretty good Sevilla come from behind to win against Madrid ..Although that meant I slept at 430 AM
On sunday eve did see the Stamford Bridge game and got to say Chelsea played superbly for the last 15 mins after they went a goal down....great goal by Essien and they almost got 1 or 2 more!Tito Vilanova = :champion:
Turned out to be an interesting race. Glad I decided to watch it. Too bad Logan went out. At least it was from racing hard and not his own mistake.
