First of all well done, Spammers in the end the number of games played in the last week alone, was obvious in the first half performance.
Though Spammers were holding on in the second half, and the very poor refereeing helped them immensely, for me, the Spammers had the better chances.
You have to say though, even though we played badly, they were couple of times, we probably would have scored on another day.
It wasn't a capitulation by us, in fact Spammers used every trick in the book to hang on to the 1-0, so for that I am happy.
Look at the go0ns, losing again at home to the side we've just beaten
Last game at the Boleyn in itself sad
However, I applaud the spirited performance from our side, though the Europa game plus the two league games since then caught up with us.
In the end, I put my hands up and say well done Spammers
I think this is just a small blip
Well done Spammers, just a blip

Kane was poor again tonight, getting worried about him. We used to see him have his back to goal, drop a shoulder and get a shot away in the bottom corner but its just not himself at the moment.
The face mask seems to be an irritation to him, he seems to be adjusting it all the time.

Cool, it takes decency to control your urges but hey feel free to gloat because you do have a decent side there
Three players in your squad could walk into any top six side right now and your squad is miles better than that of Leicester
Hope you play your finals against them and Arsenal

I thought West Ham were just about one of the worse sides we have played this season. Absolutely zilch football, just lumping it up in the air, and running about a lot. Spurs were below par on a very poor pitch. No wonder West Ham don`t lose many on that cow patch, you just cannot get any decent passing movements going. Kane was very poor tonight, he just seemed to be ambling about as if he was not bothered.

It pains me to say it but your boys were better than us tonight and deserved to win. Billic got his tactics spot. Im positive you will finish top six.
Hopefully you can do the same to Arsenal.

lol, Sandy it's called watching the game through tinted glasses mate
It's easy to do when you're so passionate but if you analyse the game, parts of the game West Ham got their tactics spot on - well done Bilic.
They changed to a back three and completely caught us off guard with having more men pushing forward and allowed Payet more freedom
We were off the pace a bit, hardly surprising when this is our third tough game in a week
Loved the way Hammers tried eveyrthing to waste time...It just showed how much they respect us
Bilic was ecstatic at the end because he knows his side matched one of the best sides in the league right now.
It's a blip and can happen to any team.
In the end, ask yourself whether we got outplayed completely for long period of the game and the answer is a resounding no.
MoPo may have got the tactic wrong today and keeping Delli for the NLD played in the hands of Bilic
This is a young side and with a young manager.
The future is bright

Sandy to be fair to you mate, your partly right. We were below par. But the bit I think you saw differently from what really happened is the statement about West Ham being one of the worst sides we have played this season. That would be Villa imo
West Ham area solid outfit and can give any team run for their money
Shame they are living their historic ground because they will never, and you can mark my words here, never be able to recreate the same atmosphere inside the Olympic park
