Forest V West Ham United FC

Going to be a much-changed team I think. Possible team

          Adrian
Chambers Ruddock McCartney Potts
Diame Moncur Taylor
J Cole C Cole Jarvis

Subs: Jussi, Maiga, Downing, Morrison (if fit), Turgott, O'Brien, Rat/Demel

Very difficult to predict but I'd go for:

Adrian
Chambers, Ruddock, Potts
Downing, Lletget, J.Cole, Moncur, Jarvis
C.Cole, Lee

Subs: Jaaskelainen, Rat, Taylor, Fanimo, Collison, Turgott, Tombides.

I thought Elliot Lee was still on loan at Colchester Utd?

No - he returned early from his month loan, at the end of November, in mysterious circumstances. This is how KUMB reported it:

another ridiculous lunchtime kick-off... so unless i suffer a bout of insomnia i shall not be getting up to watch it live.

the TV thingy is all set up to record it... not that it's easy to get excited about what will pretty much be a reserves game.

Looks like Cardiff have found a bit of self belief under a new manager... but hopefully that only lasts for one game. we'll see.

we are going to need downing in the league, i would move Jarvis over to the right where he is ok and give Fanimo a bang on the left
apart from that bang on

This sort of Game is the perfect opportunity to start the Youngsters because as much as a Another Cup run would be nice lets be honest we don't need more games as our squad is stretch to the limit as it is without adding extra games to our fixture list Plus who knows our Youngsters might go and beat forest !  

Actually off and able to watch a west ham game live. Looking forward to this


(Please don't let me down west ham)

Let's hope playing the young uns may be the best thing about this disasterous  season so far and they play with the same pride, passion, commitment and hunger as us the fans and is clearly missing by the average joe seniors under Fat Sham
COYI

64 FA Cup winners

No grown-ups on the bench at all ! Come on the young 'uns !!

80 FA Cup

How shit must you be, it's only one - nil !! Lmao

Soooo, under Allardyce, no one in a West Ham shirt, young or old plays with any energy, passion, drive etc
That was another 45 mins of embarrassing Allardyce football, tactically inept , no fight
He continues to destroy us and our identity !!!

Forrest definitely shaded the first half

Seems there,s the same amount of ball watching with the kids there is with the first team . Get a kin grip West Ham FFS

Does SAM know what he is doing?

Keane on us pre game
On Downing
"You know your in trouble if Downing's your captain", He hasn't pulled up any trees over the last 3 years

On Fat Sham
" we've all been brainwashed over the last 10 years by him and his sports science so why all the injuries?"

Hate to say it but I completely agree

Mate, you already know my feelings on him, and he just keeps on endorsing them

It's what to expect really when you play a team of kids vs an inform coco pops team with experienced older players.

What's embarrassing is that it's on itv for the whole nation to see

I was looking forward to seeing what the youth players are like but yet again this is embarrassing. Again...

commentators picking on Maiga and Morrison and the senior players.

Children crying in the stands, Hope the board and the oaf Fat Sham are happy because with the boards blessings he continues to destroy us and our identity and every travelling fan should be reimbursed their travel expenses and match tickets,
This is and continues to be a fecking disgrace,
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh,
I'm sick to my stomache of it and just wondering what positive spin the Allardyce loving denialists on here are gonna be saying
