Match Prediction: Reading Home

West Ham Form: WDLWLW
Reading Form: LLDWDW

Venue: Upton Park
Capacity: 35640



Probable Hammers lineup: Green, Neill, Upson, Spector, McCartney, Solano, Ljungberg, Parker, Mullins, Cole, Ashton.

Prediction 3-1: I reckon after that good result at the weekend we'll be champing at the bit to get our home form going and we will over power an inferior Reading team for some much wanted xmas cheer.

Match Preview: Middlesboro Away

Boro Form: DDLDWW
West Ham Form: DWDLWL

Venue: Riverside Stadium
Capacity: 34500



Probable Hammers lineup: Green, Neill, Upson, Collins, McCartney, Solano, Ljungberg, Parker, Mullins, LBM, Ashton.

Prediction 1-1: Unfortunately Boro have had a little bit of form recently and we could be a little fragile after the Everton debacle. Our Riverside form is not that great so draw at best for me.

Brisbane Hammers/Boro Xmas Bash Sat Dec 22nd

Ok guys I've teed it up with the pig n whistle that we are gonna have a sit down xmas roast with the boro fans the night of our match 9pm.

Cost is 20 bucks per person and for your money you get a traditional roast turkey dinner.

I need an idea of numbers so please can you confirm your attendance on the following thread on the forums...

The match will be kicking off at 1am so plenty of time to get lubricated before the match. (no sexual jokes please)

Come on you Irons!

FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

Man City at ours which is not the kindest marble that could have come out.

After our name came out there were 15 teams left in the hat including Chelsea, Newcastle & Portsmouth. But there was also Burton Albion, Bury & Barnet which would have been a whole lot nicer.

Here's hoping for a Dean Ashton winner like we had in 2006. I'm sure we can work something out to the tune of white christmas.

Full Draw (to be played Jan 5/6)

Preston v Scunthorpe
Port Vale/Chasetown v Cardiff
Colchester v Peterborough
Bolton v Sheffield United
Blackburn v Coventry
Brighton v Mansfield

Chelsea 1 - 0 West Ham

Fucken unlucky! Joe was offside for me ('CAUSE HE WAS!) but sometimes you get them and sometimes you don't. But Joe did do well to split the defenders and get himself into a good position, to collect the ball, in the first place, his finish was also pretty good. But his celebration, what a cunt! No respect there for a club that he owes everything too. Always had a soft spot for Joe but he has now officially made the shit list!

Onto the game, what a gutsy performance from the lads, we were in their face big time. There's a real nasty streak in the team at the moment and I like it! We gave them nothing and worked our bollocks off, can't ask for anymore than that! For two teams that are supposed to be miles apart in quality, I thought there was very little difference. We were definitely worth a draw IMO. In fact I reckon that if we had just a bit more quality i.e. Tevez, I think we might have nicked this one.

I thought to a man all played well, gave everything and played to the best of their ability. The exception to this was Ethers, for me he is a one trick pony, and if that trick doesn't work he offers nothing else. Sorry Ethers fans and I know there's a few of you on here but he just isn't that good.

Anyway, don't want to be negative, overall was happy enough with the game. We are looking pretty solid. Never pleased with a loss but with effort like that I've no complaints and was very proud of the lads.

CURBS IN!
