Agree totally with Romford.
All season we've looked less fit than our opponents and that is a manager's responsibility.
Also, tactically we've been poor, from team selection, playing chosen players out of position and, sometimes, unfathomnable substitutions.
Before the game, I feared the worse especially as so many were talking of thumping Bournemouth, based on what, wasn't clear. We've looked fragile all season and the manner of most of our wins, did not instil confidence in me that we're "only a couple of good players from being a good side".
Slav may be a great bloke but a Premier League manager and motivator he ain't.
Don't say we should sack him at this point in the season but if we stay up, I'd hope to see a change. Surely Eddie Howe would be an attractive and realistic option? I've not taken talk of the likes of Mancini seriously or even Benitez (why would he leave the Toon, given that they will be in the Premier next season and are playing really well).
Any coach who says he was happy after yesterday doesn't get my vote. :(

Our wins this season have relied heavily on individual performances rather than playing well as a team. To me that says the manager is the problem.
I do really hope we stick with Slaven, but I totalt agree with you. At the moment he has to implement a way to play. For all season we've seem to have no ideas at all...

The players look lost because they are not confident that Slav knows what he's doing . I reckon they are confused and are half-heartedly trying to implement Slav's tactics. Maybe they need to speak honestly to the manager and say this is not working , your tactics are not working, play us in our strongest positions.

I may have said similar to what's highlighted in bold before.

The football wasn't great but the day as a whole was. Yesterday was another nod towards how good it's become to follow West Ham on thand road again, the fans were great. Lots of short memories, some of the away games under Allardyce were amongst the worst I've ever seen. At least we're actually showing some sort of intent these days.

Mid-table, given the upheaval of the new ground and the Payet situation, I'm more than happy with that. I'm still 100% behind Slav and feel things will be a lot different next season, IF Sullivan finally puts his money where his mouth is.

Most depressing thing of the day for me - and I include their last minute goal - was seeing a couple of our younger guns having a go at the lady with one eye who turns up week in week out from Brighton. Classless.

If it's the same lady with the white stick she was a diamond as one of my boys (8) got sent tumbling after the equalizer and she was at pains to make sure he was ok.

Tbf a fair few apologised & made sure they were ok, and I'm not for one second wanting it sterile during a game...but they didn't show the old girl the respect she deserved.

The game. We were *****, but it was entertaining, in a perverse sort of way!

As much chance of that as me and you winning the lottery...twice

Expect overdrive bu*****t propaganda from G&S from May/June when S/T sales start.

The higher number of non renewals......the more crap they will spout.

In Iron men Sullivan admits the move will be worth approx. 11 million per season......a very average player in todays market.We will never be a big club with these 2 owning our club

And if thousands don't renew.............anyones guess what the future holds

David Sullivan From the Boardroom

This little snippet caught my eye, particularly the last sentence.
We have conceded too many goals early in halves in recent games and, while we’ve managed to get ourselves back into games like the ones at Southampton and Watford and at home to West Bromwich Albion, there will be matches where we cannot equalise. That situation cannot go on.

Making sure adequate funds are available for a much needed RB and striker to replace the ineffective duffers you wasted millions on in the summer would have helped Dave.....

Thanks Doc! They're not put off, proper Irons...bit shaken but I think they're more addicted than ever. They always talk about the West Ham family and it's true 99% of the time. Didn't help that AFCB went up the other end & bagged the winner.

Hope to see you at some more games.

Not singling you out in the slightest , mate but Bournemouth have beaten West Brom , Everton , Liverpool , Hull [ 6-1 ] and Swansea [ 0-3 ] while holding Tottenham , Arsenal and Man Utd to a draw so they aren't a Championship level team nowadays - they needed the points as did we and we almost shared them .
OK , we had an off day , it happens , concentration wasn't at its best but we still scored 2 goals and created a few more chances .

We're not Champions League material by a long shot but we ain't as bad as some make out we are either .
