You will definitely be above Spurs once they drop back into midtable

Top 10 I agree, but top 8? You'd need to spend for that.

West Ham have the infrastructure as do QPR

Good times ahead for London clubs

Maf

I hope so

Lucky if we manage mid table

10-14 this year plus a cup semi, 8-12 the following year - if any of your idiotic fans complain just point at Blackburn Rover in League 2

I think you'll be around 12th. Surely survival has to be the main aim though?

Yeah id be happy with that of course first season back

I'm a deluded Hammer, and we'll emulate Newcastle and end the season in the top 6!!!!

For that Ravel Morrisson has to score 15 goals.

Has anyone heard Rob Green's contract extension?

Sorry to be a dissenting voice, but I think we need to get rid of Allardyce. He barely managed to get promoted the strongest club in the division.
And, of course, his style of play is contrary to West Ham's traditions and will always attract criticism.

He was brought in to get us promoted. I believe his contract was only for 2 years anyway. Let him go and bring in someone else. Maybe Chris Hughton.

Sacking and hiring is not going help the stability at the club. Sam Allardyce has brought some good players for long term purpose at the club. We have to be patient and build the team. - that's my opinion, anyway.

I hope we emulate Norwich, that would do first season back.

Best case, well last time we came up we finished 9th and got to the FA cup final, doubters will say we have no chance of doing it again, but no reason we can't.

Let's wait until December. That should give us a good indication of how things are going. Anyway, Big Sam's contract expires next year (I think). Who says he will want to renew it?
But yes, we do need some stability. We've not had that since Harry was our manager.

December is too late if we don't perform well under SA. I would say first 10 games are enough to see us where we will finish under SA.

Big Sam has never lost 3 successive top flight games...

Has he not? That's a fantastic stat and hope he'll continue.

. we will be a top 10 club or even I dare to say a top 8 club. We all know he's a shrewd manager when it comes to money like Arsene Wenger. Some of us, sometimes don't like his style of play but he know how to win games and how to get a point when it's impossible to win.

Wenger...... Fat Sam

Great Article Maf

======================

Top 9 & a cup final.



Ahhhhhhh bless T K o Ty.

It's unlikely, but it was unlikely in 2006 and is exactly what happened.

Hi TKoT

You got relegated in your most recent Premiership season though, so surely that is more likley.

And you didnt just get relegated, you finished ROCK BOTTOM.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and before coming up finishing 9th and getting to the FA cup final we were in the Championship for 2 seasons, not like 1 this time.

I say again, to repeat that is highly unlikely, but it has been done before so it is possible.

Sorry Thudd didn't see you there.
