west ham woe /merged/

[themodfather]

gutted as an easy fixture to get too...they need 2 wins and loads of goals, and results to go their way....bow locks!

Was looking forward to taking my son to watch West Ham/QPR fixtures next season. Have promised him I'll take him to Upton Park so I will do on a weekend when Rangers are away. That's the side of me that people don't see very often on here.

[HammersmithR]

Yeah wanted them to stay up. Proper fans and a proper club. Wanted to go there again before they moved to the Olympic stadium. Can't see them staying up now.

Think it's definitely West Ham, Wigan and probably Blackpool. Can't see Blackpool winning at Man United.

God knows how many times I have been to grounds like Birmingham, Wolves and Blackburn as well!

[SOUTHGATE_Rsss]

I like West Ham but want them to go down. Get a nice 20 pounds from my work colleague if wigan and west ham go down. Made the bet 2 months ago as well so I took a huge risk

You young ones dont know them like us older ones from when Wet Spam used to take over the Loft in the 70's.

i was in SAW for "That" cup game..qpr won 3-1, west ham had 10,000 over..on pitch, game delayed for 30+mins
i was sitting with a right "firm" of icf, cass was a few rows behind, they thought i was with them, until pizanti scored and i could see my mates in loft jumping about..so i said "i'm off down to my mates in the loft", they look quite surprised.
sadly teams did bring 1000s to us...cos we allowed it, cash on day and poor segregation.
but little trouble with us and hammers...

[LoftusRoadLad]

Little trouble ?

[vblockranger]

love it if they go down..:-)

[ChelmsfordRs]

Looking forward to some BIG celebrations tomorrow.

Definitely don't want to see West Ham go down. It's an Oyster Card game. But if Birmingham and Wolves stay up won't be too bad (cheaper travel), and Wigan and Blackpool stay down, it makes life a bit cheaper.
God I'm self-centred...

[swanleyhoop]

Yeah, Wolves and Brum only a couple of hours away.
From that viewpoint, Reading would suit us best to go up in the playoffs -- 6 points guaranteed for us too!

[qprfan4ever]

well upside is if they lose tomo we officially a premier league team U R'ssssssssssssss

[stainrod10]

Can't wait for them to be officially down. Get that Hammer back on here - plenty of goading to be done!

[BennyBoyRs]

I hate Wolves. Horrible club.

Been to Molineux far too many times, and always had a s**t time.

[Park Street Ranger]

I remember West Ham coming down to LR in the 70s and 80s and getting in all over the ground. Still a classic fixture for us though, and it's a shame we won't be seeing them next year. I have many happy memories of matches against them, including our 6-1 FA Cup win at LR (1977 I think) and our 3-0 victory at Upton Park on the first day of the season in the 87-88 season. Jim Smith was manager at the time and we led the First Division (pre- Prem League) for two or three months. Nice if we could do that again!
