West Ham to stay up.

Mont I disagree completely here, I cannot see any way that Spurs don't turn their form round.
Forest have looked reasonable as well.
So after City we then have a reasonable run in whereas West Ham still have to play Liverpool, City, Arsenal, Villa and Newcastle which is why they have the hardest end to the season.
Win just two more of our games and they have to win five of their's to finish above us. Their games are running out.

I too want to finish above Sunderland as one of our best friends is a huge fan. She’s been lording it all season but I’ve said for a while that we will end up above them. They’ve now lost four of their last five and two in a row at home. Wheels falling off again?

Beating them at our place to go above them would be so sweet.

Forest have a nightmare March! They could end up losing all their games apart from maybe Spurs away.



Brighton A
Manchester City A
Fulham H
Tottenham Hotspur A

Not many points from those games imo.

You think Forest's March is tougher than the Hammer's

Liverpool (a) Feb
Fulham (a)
Brentford (H) fa cup
Man City (H)
A. Villa (a)

I think we have a reasonable chance of building a nice lead by the international break.

The challenge this season was to stay in contention. Our run in on paper was pretty friendly.. I feared getting to that point with enough points and confidence intact was the issue. Job done in that respect. Holding that points cushion through this little run has been crucial too to reduce table pressure. Not there yet but we’re well set.

Our biggest challenge now has to be stave off complacency.
Sure we've seen it so many times, our biggest enemy being ourselves. Other teams will start scrapping for points and we will have one flip-flop on the beach.

Both equally tough but West Ham are playing quite well at the moment by comparison. They’ve also got a settled manager who the players seem to back.

I just want to finish above all three of them - WH, Forest and Spurs. Anything higher than 15th will be icing on the cake.

It is at the moment and West Ham's problem is that they have to keep it up. If I was a Hammer's fan I wouldn't be looking back at what I'd achieved so much but looking forward to what is on the horizon. Other teams have got favourable sets of fixtures in comparison.

Nonsense that they are equally tough by the way, take out the cup game, Forest have 14th, 16th 10th and 2nd (42) West Ham have 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 10th (31) a difference of 11 positions between the teams they play. Take away the two teams they both play Forest play Spurs and Brighton, West Ham play Villa and Liverpool, both of those games are away.

every feckin' day is a big day for us, boys need to dig in and stop conceeding late on
