Moyes asks West Ham fans to stick by team and players

|

David Moyes has asked West Ham supporters to stick by his team and his players to help avoid relegation saying it is the best chance of survival.

Speaking to WHUFC.com Moyes said: “I’m not an expert on West Ham, as I haven’t been here long enough, but I know that everyone being together gives us the best chance of making sure we’re a Premier League team, and we’re going to need that.

“The support here is tremendous, in as much as the numbers they travel in and we’d like to have given them another performance like we did at Huddersfield or Stoke City, but we didn’t, and we’ll go away and try and correct and fix that.

“They’ve been great at London Stadium and I’m going to ask them to stick with the team and the players, and we’ll do everything we possibly can to get us results.”

    Should support the team & I’m not pro board but singing board out at games doesn’t help players focus.
    Said I don’t see them selling they don’t own stadium & if sell cuts Intl there earnings a lot in first 5 years. Best they could do as ‘fans’ is take a back seat & hire professionals as a board & director & be quiet like most owners.

    But w all the turmoil Henry etc we need to back the team even more. I can imagine that weighs on Kouyatw who was playing great. But if players like Ginge worried about Contract & Kouyate & others worried about Racism & so on they won’t be 100% focused which we need them we are in a relegation fight & we do have the quality to stay up tho ffs we needed a CDM but waited to late & btwn Moyes wanting PL experience & British players it lowered the pool. Mario was def not a Moyes pick & working well so far. But Cairney isn’t a CDM should gone for Johansen from Fulham.
    I think both to blame for window.

    But if the Boars make anymore statements it needs ri be a direct statement to the fans being positive otherwise be quiet.
    And back the player s

    What Moyes is saying is that all the negativity & anger at the board is doing the team no favours. Boo’s & chanting about the board during the game is not getting behind the players. I have become pd off with the board & their lack of commitment & broken promises since they sold us the LS stadium bs. They dug us out of the hole we were left in with the Icelandic bunch of fools but I can’t understand the total lack of investment in the playing side of the club. The club is nothing without the playing squad, half the clubs in the relegation dog fight broke their transfer records this season yet we have had a transfer net spend of fk all.
    FFP rules only seem to apply to us, players leave on a transfer fee & their wages gone but still we hear we are at our wages limit. How is this possible as we haven’t even got the overheads of running a stadium?? Time to put up or shut up..!!!!

    Don’t worry mr moyes the fans will support the team come what may. That’s what we do. It’s sullivan, gold and Brady that have let us down and will not be forgiven. Please sell up and go

    Not sure how our problems on the pitch stem from the move from UP and promises not being kept. We’re West Ham and we’ve always blown hot and cold. We’ve always lost more than we’ve won, it’s what we do.

    There’s no doubt we’ll stick by the team and players providing they give 100% …The problems that we have all stem from a lack of investment in quality players, it’s as simple as that really ..it’s got to the stage where we don’t know where the next win will come from…I’m dunfounded that we find ourselves in such a precarious situation…the only silver lining is that all the other teams below and around us are struggling also..but our problems stem from the move from UP and promises not being kept ….
