[Football] West ham v Stoke

[LamieRobertson]

Can anyone remember the last time we stuffed up 3 games in a row and whether it worked out well for us?

Can anyone remember when we last lost six in a row

Or: LLDLLLLLL

I think it'll be a dreadful match with West Ham probably nicking a late goal to break the deadlock. Two terrible sides played in a morgue-like atmosphere.

If West Ham take an early lead, we'll hear fervent eastenders, salt of the earth, they won the 66 WC on their own.

If Stoke take a lead and control the game, the knees-up-mother-brown brigade will be at their backstabbing best.

If Stoke win then we're in big trouble

Would rather Stoke lost, but on the other hand this could be West Ham's last realistic chance to get any more points.

There is no bad result tonight.

Yes there is. A stoke win.

Ordinarily draws among our rivals are best because this maximises the total points lost, but tonight it has to be a sham win. At this end of the season, only Stains vs Stoke is one where a draw would be good.

The thing is I think there is a reasonable chance that West Ham won't get another point after tonight so I wouldn't be that upset if they lost.

Clearly a Stoke loss is the best result though.

If Stoke win, watch our odds dramatically shorten. Our loss at the weekend changed our relegation bookies odds from 22/1 to 10/1.

Fair enough. Getting close to clenching time....

West Ham's odds will get worse as well, as tonight is really their main 'point banker'.

Stoke win is a mare - bottom 3 need to stay as bottom 3

Yeah I'd have us at about 2/1 max if Stoke win tonight

True.

But being just Albion centric, I want our odds to stay as long as possible = betting cashflows from the gambling/sport-loving world seeing our demise as extremely unlikely.

5 - 0 ish to the gawd blimey guvs would be a crushing, possibly fatal psychological blow to the potters. Come on you Irons ...

With straight red cards for Butland, Shaqiri and Shawcross. Please.

 

[Lawro's Lip]

Got to to be a West Ham win please.Reports of their last two games suggest Stoke played well though.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Good match for an insurance bet if ever there was one, Stoke winning would be a disaster.

We lost two and drew one. One point will help us.

 

[jeremyfisher]

I haven't wanted a West Ham win as much since the 1980 cup final.

Good old Trev!
