West Ham - the Stoke of the South. You must be so proud.
You lot truly the academy of football last night, worse football than under fat Sam.
And Wembley is shit so don't blame people not wanting to go but nevermind it's only another 5 months and we'll be in a proper football stadium and you lot are stuck with London stadium and possibly back in the championship

It just shows how far behind us Dale Farm FC really are. The absolute highlight of their season is getting an away point at Spurs playing 11 men behind the ball. They are truly an embarrassment to football.
Not surprised at all there were only 50k there, there are only so many people that will pay £50 to watch a championship level West Ham side.
Fucking hell - he’s a clever one mr Daz T
Taking some sort of pride in having 3 shots and being as interesting a derby match to the average fan as AFC Wimbledon is this coming weekend.
Taking pride in not attacking and hanging on for anything possible. Fair enough, carry on remembering 1966.
Reason the ground was empty (still 50k in there) was that we put this game in the same price bracket as Woolwich, United and Juventus.
And we actually pay top dollar for seats not get them given to us with a copy of the Sunday Sport.
Tickets at a reasonable price in line with your league standing we could easily put another 20k fans there. Simple rule of economics.
Did I pay to watch a top quality opponent last night?? Did I fuck. One sided game of football that even your own manager admitted was the best he could hope for against a much better team than West Ham.
Piss off you cunt.

And as for tinpot.......i give you GSB, a rented athletics stadium, anti-football tactics.....i could go on but you get my drift. Oh, and 30yrs undefeated (or is it 50 now?).........the embarrassment never stops
The west ham way has new meaning, looks like he's already been removed
Which in turn is why we should trust Poch's reasons for not playing him.
Disappointing result. West Ham came to get a point and almost got three. Two great goals mind.
Been here before though, no Moyes 'Masterplan' as West Bromwich, Swans and others have played the same way.
Atmosphere was generally shit until the final 20 minutes or so. At the end I really did think we were going to win it but lacked composure and inventiveness when it really mattered.

Essentially, amounting to scapegoating then, yeh?
So we get our lowest league attendance against West Ham United.
Apparently a less attractive fixture than Swansea, Bournmouth, Burnley, West Brom, Stoke etc etc
How embarrising is that for their deluded supporters

Let's not forget, this shower actually BEAT the Chavs not too long ago too.
I honestly think that if Poch had made subs around the 60th minute rather than the 74th, Spurs win this game.
Poch is great but he is still relatively young for a manager at a top flight club and I think that this is one area where he needs to, and will, improve.
Utterly dominated an inferior opponent and could only salvage a point - once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a trend, and this was the 4th time it's happened this season.

Thursday night, shit weather, small club who came out to play anti-football? Who wants to venture to Wembley for that?
Every Spurs supporter that showed up should be given a medal for sitting through that shit.
Agree, this masterclass tripe is getting old. Sit deep and defend isn't exactly revolutionary stuff.
Unless you are Mourinho and your team cost $500 million to assemble. Then its the stuff of legends, apparently.
I guess so...scapegoating caused by what I talked about and maybe, just maybe, it's directed at Sissoko currently but anyone we bought in for 30 mill and didn't perform like a world class superstar would have received the grief he gets...as the latest scapegoat.
That club is such a fucking joke.
People just didn't want to spend the money to go see that sack of shit.
Wasn't the issue that it was classed as an "A tier" match and so the tickets were at the same pricing tier as the likes of our major derbies and matches against Woolwich and Chelsea?

We're 'tinpot' so what the hell does that make West Ham?
A club that last one a trophy thanks to a goal from Trevor bloody Brooking!
They're no bigger than Palace but act as if they're some sort of English institution. They also romanticise and glorify hooliganism. They're simply trash.
