    City clinched the title against Swansea.

    They’d won the title before then.

    Not a great weekend for us, but could have been worse.

    Our expected defeat leaves us right in it with Soton winning and Stoke nicking an unlikely point.

    On the plus side, Huddersfield didn't get anything from Everton, and face 3 really tough games to finish.

    With Swansea still to play both Southampton and Stoke, that could either benefit or banjax us, depending on the results.

    Fortunately things are still very much in our own hands, and if we could get a win at Leicester then that would be the end of our worries, to all intents and purposes.

    Desperately hoping this will be the last week we are included in this round-up.

    If we beat Leicester and Southampton and Swansea lose. Then we are mathematically safe.

    IF is the problem.

    There are a lot of confusing permutations which leave things very much in the air. For starters, palace beating stoke and Bournemouth beating Swansea would be nice...

    "Banjax" ;ok

    I like that word.

    There are a few out there who are pretty confident of us staying up. I’m curious to find out why. Is it

    a ) because they think we will pick up more points still

    b ) because we won’t pick up any points but 3 points won’t manage to catch us?


  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Me personally barracks think we will I genuinely believe we will get a win against united but I also believe that 35 will be enough think Huddersfield will go and only one out of Southampton and Stoke will make it

    c) bit of both. I think we will get at least 1 point from our remaining games and I also believe that the teams below us have been poorer than us for this much of the season and I don't expect that to change in the next 3 games.

    We can’t do both cus Huddersfield won’t get another point imo

    In recent weeks I have got the impression that a prerequisit for being a Hammers supporter is to be not just a 'glass half empty' but a 'glass as good as empty' type of person.

    Is it really that important what league we play in? It seems to me that some people on here want change for change's sake. Just spend 100 million and everything will be alright. No need for the Daved to haggle, just pay any price. (If you think they should just agree to pay any price the selling club wants, I have an 8-year old Kia in my garage that I would like to sell for £5000. ;wink )

    Moyes has inherited a squad and his only possibility of fixing things were in January and we all know what happens to prices in that window. Then Masuaku got himself sent off and we signed Evra. Unlike what I have read on here in recent weeks that signing wasn't one we wanted but one we needed to cover for 6!!! games when Arthur was banned.

    I am confident we will be in the prem next season and if we are it will be because we were better than at least three clubs below us. We went down with 42 points once and I certainly don't believe anyone up to 42 or 43 points was lucky enough not to go down because x clubs were worse than them.

    Keep the faith and support the club. And if you really do feel the need for a whine - have it with cheese.

    It is important what league we play in since we sold out the Boleyn to achieve "supposed" glory. There is no justification for the move to date other than a few extra gate receipts (at a vastly disadvantaged viewing distance.)

    Otherwise why did we move at all !?!??!

    That's what worries me Hammerlegend, IF we perform, and I havn't seen that
    for some time now.

    Just over a month ago we beat Southampton 3-0, a week later we drew at Chelsea, Stoke was always going to be tough (ask Liverpool) and Arsenal didn't deserve their 4-1 win.

    Incredible to believe that in the space of six hours we have gone from being well in the thick of it to not only “more or less” safe but OFFICIALLY safe. What a sequence of results, led by our own

    Vorse, yes I watched him at the final whistle and thought his head was going to explode off his shoulders.............shame.......... smirk. ;whistle
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Southampton v Manchester City next Sunday could still relegate them if even they win at Swansea as they are at home to Stoke?

    Definitely would prefer Soton to go down rather than Swansea or Huddersfield.

    I feel for Darren Moore -unbeaten as a manager, with wins against Man Utd. and Tottenham, and his team was relegated.

    Not yet they aren't.
  • secrethammersfansecrethammersfan
    Sure. Sure they aren't.
  • alderzalderz
    I mean, they aren’t though. They probably will be, but they aren’t yet.
