Video: No punches pulled Gonzo’s on the whistle verdict

Gonzo is here with an entirely honest and straightforward verdict on a match which should, but probably wont, be Pellegrini’s last as West Ham boss.

We will no doubt get the normal ‘pony’ from other sites but at least you know where you are with Gonzo – he tells it honestly as a guy with crossed Hammers in his heart.

As he explains here “2-3 seems quite close but it wasn’t – they were far better than us.” Sums it up, spot on, beaten by a team with whom the new manager had spent probably three training sessions.

Soon the dust will settle and some serious decision making may be on the way and from where we are sitting that needs to happen very quickly indeed.

Gonzo, meanwhile, probably like many of us, can’t get wildly upset at today’s result because there comes a point where you lack the energy after so many dreadful performances on the bounce.

Tune in to Gonzo – a balanced, honest and sensible report from a guy who refuses to polish a turd just because he happens to be a Hammer.
