Andy Carroll is only going one way

RARS!

I've been lurking - have just had f*** all worthwile to say for about 5 years

"Slaven taking a good squad to newcastle tomorrow. Good luck slaven. d.g."


Mmmmmmm. Gold thinks his a bit clever on Twitter. I'm interpreting this as if we lose tomorrow slav will be sacked. Pardon?

No change to the previous 5 then?!

[TheHandOfDog]

Got a bad feeling about this game, just like every other game I have ever watched us play. Not brave enough to guess a scoreline.

[Phil S]

hope the game isn't as bad as the drive up here I just had

7 1/2 hours from Southend FFS

[The Terminator]

Adrian back in goal please, nothing against Hart but I prefer Adrian personally.

Ginge must be in line for a start, however we're never going to form a solid defence if it keeps chopping and changing.

I had a car like that once, I traded it in.

[Bamber Gascoigne]

Oh dear - was that via the M1 or A1 Phil? Leaving at 6:45am and planning to use the latter.

Any major roadworks on the A1 Phil ?

[Corney Beal]

26 miles no less of road works near RAF Leeming on the A1.
Also Leeds Festival near Wetherby and a major meet at York Races.

[Bamber Gascoigne]

No roadworks at all according to Traffic England website - just a mention of minor disruption at j44/45 of the A1M for the Bramham Park shindig near Leeds.

[Harry Hound]

I expect us to win this as Slav seems to perform well when the pressures on.

[bubbles500]

York ebor tomorrow will be massive crowd .

[Paddy O'Hammer]

Can I just say that I haven't a clue on how this match will pan out.

[Bamber Gascoigne]

Nothing showing on AA travel either.

[Corney Beal]

No roadworks at all according to Traffic England website - just a mention of minor disruption at j44/45 of the A1M for the Bramham Park shindig near Leeds.

BBC Look North stated tonight ' 26 miles of roadworks near Leeming', as well as the Ebor Meet, Headinley Test & Leeds Festival.

Last trip up that way for me was Sunderland last season when there was lengthy works around in north Yorkshire for improvements. May be suspended I guess but still reported as being an issue in the local Beeb news tonight.

[Colours never run]

On paper we should piss this. They're a shocking side with plenty of injuries and suspension to deplete an already bog standard squad. But this is West Ham afterall who like to make hard work of it as much as possible. Here's hoping though..
