    I would agree Baracks, they were both better captains. Name a better one in the current squad?

    After Brighton debacle I wanted sb out
    But playing spuds team who are doing well, 3rd in league , even at deluded self’s
    we would not be in top 4
    I don’t think it’s fair to include this game as one slav must win games

    Does anyone think Bilic planed this
    Right we will let spuds score 2 goals, to give them a chance, then we will go mad

    It caught my eye because it refers to Bilic, but I found it an interesting insight into the business of managing generally.

    A good read ;ok

    I don't think many doubt Slav as a man as he has always come across well, not only decent and sporting but a great passion for the game. It is a high stress and high stakes game and if you will enjoy the feeling of 50,000 fans chanting Super Slav then he will accept the other side of that coin I feel sure.

    The essence of the stress and stakes is that there can be no other profession that has 50'000 people appraising your performance at every move and no other profession for which the results of your work are so instantly viewable, week after week. I would say to Rosenior that this is the nature of the job, it is not for the faint hearted, you will be held aloft on shoulders and also kicked when you are on the floor (metaphorically) and if that's not for you then become a kit man or physio when you retire, or maybe go retro and open a pub.

    I thought Bilic should have gone after the Swansea game, I’ve seen nothing that makes me consider changing my mind.

    He needs to go

    Simple as that

    Not good enough

    He's going nowhere after that win vs Spurs, bought him at least another few more weeks
  • tomkinsworldclasstomkinsworldclass
    3 points off midtable. Should be given more time.

    stays for me, or walks at his own speed

    He had little choice today, injuries to two defenders and Zab on a yellow

    Should have been sacked ages ago.

    Europe cup done it for me
  • Expat_HammerExpat_Hammer
    He just doesn't seem to know what's needed

    I've supported him wholeheartedly throughout, but enough is enough

    It's got nothing to do with the fact we drew today. Our football has been poor all season. And a lot of last season too.

    If we were winning every week the performances wouldn't matter, but to play as badly as we have been and have only 9 points from ten games (including Huddersfield, Brighton, Newcastle, Palace, Swansea, Burnley, Southampton and West Brom) is just not good enough.

    Me too and agree Expat

    The comment you often hear made about other clubs is "How many of their players would you want playing for West Ham?"

    I have always been largely pro-Slav but I am now asking myself the question "How many of the other 19 clubs in the Premier League would want Slaven Bilic as their manager?"

    It's always nice to beat Tottenham but IMHO the Premier League is more important. The win last Wednesday probably gave Slaven a few more weeks before we hit another bad patch of results and he is one defeat away from the sack again. Whilst he can't be blamed for a couple of brainless decisions today we can ask why we didn't continue to attack and get a third goal which would surely have killed off Palace off. I could understand trying to defend the lead a bit more if we had a top rated CDM, now why didn't we get one of those in the last window? ;doh
