In today’s Claret and Hugh poll we ask whether West Ham will win, lose or draw on Monday night?
Another game were a win will be bitter sweet…if we win it will mean m.p will cling to his job for another week or two but the simple fact remains that it will happen again…you just can’t enjoy anything at the min …I’ll gladly hold my hands up if he strings 4\5 wins on the bounce but he is to stubborn to try to make that happen..our main hope is if Antonio is playing and that’s just unbelievable to rely on one player to give us a bit of aggression up top..if he doesn’t play just look at how deflated everyone will be including the players …and that is so so wrong
Pellegrini has got to go, irrespective of the result. The guy doesn’t have a clue and thinks he is still managing Man City, with all their world class players who just did it all for him.
We have to wake up and sack him before we get relegated.
