Managerless Leicester travel to London having won only 2 of their last 6 to face a West Ham side that stuck 4 past Blackpool in their last home game.

A resounding WHUFC Victory to keep the pressure on Southampton at the top of the table.

COYI!

[Yea Why Not]

All their players know that a clean slate has been set and they will all be out to impress. Terrible time to play them

I don't reckon we'll get more than a point

Leicester are our Blackburn in this league.

A team we hardly ever lose to (espec at home), no matter how awful we are, in my experience.

Is Mills, their captain and defensive leader, still banned?

So long as they don't appoint O'Neill we'll be fine.

oneill is an absolute shoe in - be surprised if he hasnt already accepted the job

Mills is out and a win puts us top (even if its only for a couple of hours). Would like to see Baldock plus a lump up front but this effectively rules out playing Nolan which will not happen.

[Kitt the car]

Hoping for a win to start me off on my holiday in a good mood so I'm going for a 2-1 to us.

Cheers DL for starting this one with some match info

[wizzo_66]

Looking forward to this. Hopefully we can kick on from mid week and show that we can play at home, really take the game to them.
2-0, 1 in each half. Nolan & Baldock.

[Parso]

I think this game will be harder following Sven sacking. Teams always seem to be galvanised following the sacking of a manger.

Not sure if we have anyone back for this game form the physio room but I would possibly bring Baldock for this one.

Good work Mr Leg on starting this thread.
Lets hope the run continues.
Can we only have Dyers and the Uptown Gal starting match day threads please? The rest of you are jonahs.

anyone else like to see freddie & baldrick together up front?

[KierZ]

before the sacking i would of said that we would have too much for them.

now, as others have said, they will be eager to impress a new man in charge. they will be playing for their place and i can see a few of there boys playing better than they have recently.
everyone will be fighting for playing time

****ing hell YWN, don't you ever get bored with being so negative? You think the OS is ****, we played **** last night, we will be **** on Saturday - Is there anything you are happy with right now?

Would be nice to see what they can do up front together, but I think we'll be seeing Carew and Baldock for this one.

Hoping we'll get to see Cole and Baldock some time soon...Cole has been desperate for a strike partner in this mould since Bellamy/DiMichelle.

[Yea Why Not]

f***ing hell YWN, don't you ever get bored with being so negative? You think the OS is sh*t, we played sh*t last night, we will be sh*t on Saturday - Is there anything you are happy with right now?

I'm not happy with anything West Ham related at the moment to be honest

The thought of watching our team play like last night over a running track in a few years time is just getting to me. I've defended Fat Sam up until now but for him to blatantly tell our players to surrender possession last night to defend really ****ed me off. I mean, I can’t think of any other explanation than that. Surely our midfielders wouldn't of been so inferior to Brighton’s without receiving that instruction

[Georgee Paris]

I thought Brighton played well - tails up, in front of there biggest crowd. We defended really well, we battled, we got three points. Last home game we blew Blackpool out of the water. We were a little unlucky against Southampton but I bet we beat them at home. The O/S is still so up in the air it could be as good as it could be as bad. Since Baldock come on against Palace there has been a slight change from Allardyce...I am certain we will soon start seeing a more attacking game plan. Seriously you need to have a **** or something. Your pipes are blocked. It ain't that bad bro.

I don't think we really battled last night though. We didn't close the ball down very well, we didn't chase lost causes.... We just purposely surrendered possession, held our positions and invited them on to us

Wrong thread any way but a performance like that will always leave my glass half empty
