Beale was always a bizarre choice, no surprise it has ended.

Watford and Man United fans on commentary, here.

Really competitive games today.

I can't recall exactly but I think the amount of early leavers used to depend on the score and usually when we were being comfortably beaten. Now it does appear many go at the same time whatever is happening which is odd.

Utterly brainless challenge.

Said it months ago that I don't think he is that interested in it anymore. The money and status is good but he'll do the bare minimum, get bailed out or shift the blame.

Very noticeable now. They replaced a section in the West Stand which really stands out. The whole place could do with an facelift, to be honest.

The club has never been more popular than the last decade. The 90s and 2000 saw significant excursions to Wembley that, even though it couldn't be replicated at Filbert St, showed the potential fanbase. Then we had the move across followed by a fairly barren decade where we barely sold out a game, including under this ownership. The last 10 years saw us grow hugely and the fanbase expand. If, for example, we had been selling out at members for generations then I could understand this policy but we certainly haven't and this season has seen crowds below 30k with members not filling the remaining places. A truly bizarre policy. You should aim to get as many people in as possible- you might need them down the line. We might not always be the number one attraction.

West Ham's league form in the past two calendar years is about 1.2 points per game. Their squad is a lot better than that.

India are currently missing huge players (I know Brook and Leach are, too) so this is a poor effort to be so far behind.

Had a bad feeling about today and so it proved. Didn't play well yet missed four sitters. Have to bounce back like we have done before.

Thank God we've never ripped off that Spandau Ballet dirge.

First train after the match to Peterborough, taking in Melton and Oakham, cancelled tomorrow.

Duckett is another success for Notts set-up, also known as local smaller counties.

The amount of adults who use them is remarkable. The youngsters I get- if I was 12-14 and had been going for 6/7 years then they would appeal to me, I'm sure- but blokes who have presumably been going for several decades whacking folded up card is a truly bizarre look and we have thousands of them.

Yeah, it was decent compared to usual. Early goal helped and I think the noise increased towards the end when it was got a little unsettled. Agree on the variety of chants for players being good.

Social media would be all over it, too. The players in the 90s were mostly all British and living locally, now plenty live outside the county. Cannot see a drinking culture happening.

Been that way for 8 years.

Moyes seems to be getting the same backing Rodgers got where the club he is at masks the squad he's got. West Ham, like us, should've been in the position they were because the squad had the quality. He is doing the job expected, I would say.

There is something in this but not just people in grounds. I'm far less engaged in the sport than I used to be, the 24/7 nature of it (fully realising I'm posting on a football forum available all the time) has taken it from a Saturday afternoon pastime (which it still was for a while in the Premier League era) to an enormous, all consuming thing. Nothing isn't covered, everything is known and the spontaneity has gone. Said before that I think we are a lost cause, we aren't going to shift people easily to potentially get a vibrant new fanbase in and there appears to be little desire from within to change as seen by the reluctance to be involved in safe standing areas.

I saw that Rodgers was taking credit for Vardy getting the Golden Boot at 33 after he joined. Yeah, nothing to do with him being in the prime of his career and the two years immediately before he took over was Vardy at his clinical best.

You won't hear that in the mainstream media!- Matt Le Tissier

"Is this the King Power?" rings out as the amount of empty seats is visible.

I do think there is a case that some celebrations are too much but anyone from Liverpool complaining that other people go over the top is totally lacking in self awareness.

Minor things like league tables suggest the style of play works.
