    I'm glad I'm not the only one.Normally I'd be like an excited child about a game like tonight,Man U at home,the chance of Europe etc etc but not today.I feel like I felt when I lost elderly relatives as an adult,i.e I knew it was coming but nothing prepares you for when it happens.If this should be on the reminiscing thread I'm sorry,but maybe it's because I'm over here & can't be there,maybe I'd be worse if I was there but I've honestly felt like crying all day.
    Nonetheless,I'll be out to watch it with a couple of other West Ham fans I know over here & when the match kicks off I'm sure I'll be fine.The last pre-match 'Bubbles' is sure to bring a lump to my throat & a tear to my eyes though.COYI!!!

  • Nice touch
  • Very well put, Madrid. I am also a long way away but its very emotional. So many memories tied up with one place.
  • Can't get my feelings together ..

    My heart feels broken today....
  • ;bowdown

    ;quaver Where's your lampshade gone, where's your lampshade gone!! ;quaver
  • Hope the players don't feel how I do right now.

    We'd get done 5-0!

    Goodbye Boleyn.

    If they feel like I felt it'd be 10-or an emotionally charged performance of a lifetime! Let's hope it's the second!
  • Genuinely believe we will lose because of our RB
  • Rooney, Mata, Martial and Rashford all start for United.
  • de Gea
    Valencia - Smalling - Blind - Rojo
    Herrera - Schneiderlin
    Mata - Rooney - Martial
    Rashford
  • Rooney, Mata, Martial and Rashford all start for United.

    ;doh
  • 'The last' or the finality of moving is bound to have a emotional and/or unsettling effect, it's just normal. Thinking of potential positives most likely will not help today but they are there to be grasped after the season ends and the new one starts.

    We will still be West Ham. Still the same history, players, supporters... For a short period of time it'll feel like we're playing away then we'll settle into our shiny new ground,

    It'll be good! More of us in it, better facilities, more money, better players to add to our squad of impressive potential already, higher profile globally plus everyone will be jealous of us which will most likely create a siege mentality.

    Memories will be made there and we'll not forget our old ones or where we come from Ok I tried!! ;weep ;puzzled

    Even more so than normal, please win tonight!! (I dont care how) coyi ;pray
  • Saints beat Spurs away and city at Home.
    Liverpool have had an easy run in.

    Think Man U will turn us over comfortably, i think Bilic will be too stubborn and play Antonio at RB to try and prove a point and only make one change, Sakho for Moses.

    called it and i think Antonio will get walked over today too stubborn from Bilic, will cost us again tonight.
  • That's one of the strongest line ups LVG has fielded all season ;hmm

    I hope the club has placed an embargo on players going on social media and watching all the #lastgamehype

    If they go into it with a 'normal' approach (important game, fighting to finish as high as we can, want to put Swansea performance behind us) that will be all well and good

    Otherwise, I worry we may see

    Maybe Bilic wanted to copy LVG and play antonio as his r/b??
