Wotcha peeps.
I do intend to go into a bit more detail about the Hammers’ outlook, especially as the business end of the season looms ever larger on the horizon, but here’s a bit of a brief summary. As always, let me know what you think.
Will Der Hammer be the one to lead West Ham to survival?
Agree with me or not?
My pre-season relegation predictions were Wolves, Wigan and Blackpool. As the season progressed my situation became precarious. Not only were my predictions simply not panning out, what was worse was that it became obvious West Ham, were up to their necks in the relegation dog fight.
After a season thus far of anguish and considerable disbelief I can safely say I’m sticking by my guns. West Ham will stay up and Blackpool, Wigan and Wolves will go down.
Blackpool, while entertaining, have had their bubble burst. They were fun while they lasted but as far as I’m concerned the Tangerines can bugger off back to the Championship where they belong. I’ll miss old Holloway’s face and hilarious Bristol accent on MOTD – But hopefully he’ll be snapped up by a Premier League team in the near future.
I believe Man United will take the title, mainly by dint of being the least shite. In reality the top teams have been an utter dissappointment over the past two years. They’ve lost class players and replaced them with decent ones. To some extent the rise of City and Spurs has been aided by the decline of Chelski and United. Don’t get me started on Arsene Wenger’s Paedo army.
Anyhoo, I’ll be back with greater detail at some point.
I’ll leave you with one of my favourite moments from the funniest man in football (if you discount Peter Crouch). Laters
