Richard Keys’ book, “Self Awareness and Me, Myself, I”, is due to be published soon.

Meanwhile, Terry Yorath’s family are grieving over someone they deeply loved.

How clubs quote these numbers with a straight face always bemuses me. #Pretendance

Karren Brady denies that over 25,000 fans decided not to attend West Ham’s game against Forest on Monday but instead many Hammers fans had been given plastic white seat outfits for Christmas presents instead

I love how the careful what you wish for brigade come out every time we lose.

Reminder DM had a world class CM in Rice. The other managers had £40m crock of shite Max Kilman. That final 6-8 months of DM was the start of this downfall.

It’s on the owners. Simple as that.

[WH Fan Place @WestHamPlace]

For years West Ham fans have been ridiculed

For years, we have been laughed at by the media, having to listen to Jim White kiss David Sullivan’s arse on talk sport

But now you ALL know what we’ve been talking about

Its just a shame it’s taken our relegation for you to see it

❌ '𝗠𝗔𝗝𝗢𝗥 𝗘𝗥𝗥𝗢𝗥' - Ex-PGMOL boss Keith Hackett says West Ham's second goal should NOT have been disallowed for offside by VAR! 😯

[⚒ The Boleyn Boys ⚒ @The_BoleynBoys]

This sums up our situation.

Moyes gave us a great platform, any competent owner would’ve pounced on that and made significant improvements.

This is where DS and his lack of ambition comes into play and puts us where we are now.

1 freebie manager and a purple in 16 years.

Nuno is a fighter. He’s never hidden. But this looks a fight too far. Seven points is more than a gap. It must feel like a gulf. Nuno is a manager who cares and is clearly hurting but he looks bereft of ideas and hope. And who motivates the motivator? 

Even if Nuno goes, so many problems remain. Poor recruitment. Agents’ influence. Too few top-level players. Too few players with strength of character. Started well but belief is brittle. Forest’s players fought harder for longer. 

Some good things - academy brings hope for the future, Foundation brings hope in the community. But the club is a mess. It’s a badly run club and good people are leaving. Gaps in staff, gaps in the stands. The club should be West Ham United, not Divided. The distance between fans and the board is even bigger than the distance between fans and the pitch.

They are stuck with the stadium, an athletics stadium. Fans were sold a dream which has turned into a nightmare. It’s soulless - the antithesis of Upton Park. At the very least the board could invest more in making the London Stadium more of a football ground. Also more investment in training ground required. 

Protests will continue. Board members can either sell - which most fans seem to want - or acknowledge their many mistakes and actually listen to fans and act on their legitimate concerns, ticket prices, stadium flaws etc, and try and rebuild together. As with survival in the Premier League, it looks too late for that. It’s sad. A good family club torn apart - and much of the damage self-inflicted by an insular board. #WHUFC

[Uber West Ham @UberWestHam]

Moyes’ reign ended with dire football, regular 4+ goal hammerings, and 74 league goals conceded. The decline started under him.

How long are people going to push this uneducated Moyes stuff. Parting ways with him (he wasn’t sacked) was the correct decision at the time.

[Dave Walker @DaveWalkerWHU]

@richardajkeys @Lord_Irons Oh fuck off!! Moyes was absolutely terrible for West Ham towards the end of his time with us! Terrible, we were getting battered most weeks. Keeping Moyes was definitely not the answer, getting the right replacement was and that (along with recruitment) is where we’ve failed.

[Billy Bonds Stand @BillyBondsStand]

Over 3,000 West Ham fans travelled to bottom of the table Wolves today, many having to put Christmas on credit cards, to watch Premier League/International Footballers earning up to £150,000 A WEEK and the team couldn't even produce one effort on target - Disgraceful 😫⚒️

[Sam Window @Sam__WHUFC]

@donhutch4 Why wait though Don... If they have pretty much made up their mind they are waiting for another terrible performance and chance to be adrift 1st. Real opportunity to inject a bit of life perhaps....

[Sam Window @Sam__WHUFC]

Firmly believe we have talent (bar clearly issues at central back) - lack of care/effort is completely unacceptable in all walks of life, let alone with highly paid footballers who are supported regularly by people who scrap funds together to do so!

[Sam Window @Sam__WHUFC]

@WestHam @jsullivanwhu @Noble16Mark @westhamfootball After that completely abject performance the least we deserve from the team is a public apology and call to arms. At the moment it feels like the team have given up - why should we as fans turn up to support???

[Kevin Slade (Academy of football podcast) @KevinSladeAOFP]

Why are fans of other clubs telling us it’s our own fault for hounding out Moyes?!

I’m sick to my back teeth of the narrative that the fans ‘hounded’ him out ffs. He wouldn’t sign a new contract because the board were pissing him about!!!!

He’s said it all on record ffs!

[WHUFC_⚒️_Sloth @WhufcSloth]

Fans told you this for years!
The press chose to run the narrative we drove Moyes out instead of target the real problem at the club!
The owners who didn’t back a manager & withdrew a contract offer & when you had “Lady Brady” on your show & asked her 0 relevant questions! #SBOUT

[⚒ The Boleyn Boys ⚒ @The_BoleynBoys]

This narrative around Moyes is bizarre.

Simple fact that anyone thinks a group of billionaires will listen to a fan base is laughable.

Coupled that it was a minority who voiced they wanted him gone.

Most Hammers were happy to see him stay because we knew what could be next.

[Hammers United @HammersUnited2]

Dear @talkSPORT stop blaming the fans.

We have always been behind the players.

Always.

We know where the problem is. Everyone does. Even you do.

We need no lectures.

Brady and Sullivan. This is on you.

Kretinsky, Smith and Gold. This is on you too.

State of this zonal marking.
6 players absolutely redundant.
Oppo just backload far post. One spare. Other oppo players act as blockers.
It’s a guaranteed free header.
It’s happening every game, what are the coaches doing in training?? It’s pathetic.

[Poplar Tales @PinceyKeeble1]

The untenable position the West Ham United board finds themselves in.
