• 285. Forever stuck in 14th
    Dec 18 2024
    It was a hard-earned point for West Ham on the road against Bournemouth. Will and James break down the game and if Julen Lopetegui is finally beginning to find a system that works (sort of). The Premier League table remains tight with us not far off Europe or the bottom three! What way are we heading? It is our last pod of the year as we take a Christmas break, so we reflect on 2024 and our hopes for 2025.

  • Opposition View: Bournemouth, with Craig from UTCIAD
    Dec 13 2024
    West Ham travel to high-flying Bournemouth on Monday night. Two sides where the mood around the clubs could not be more different. We preview the game with Cherries podcaster Craig from Up The Cherries In All Departments. Craig offers some great insight on Bournemouth's stunning rise up the football pyramid, their brilliant manager Andoni Iraola, and how the talented attacking duo of Antoine Semenyo and Evanilson will hurt the Hammers.

  • 284. Thankful they're worse (somehow)
    Dec 10 2024
    The Julen Lopetegui can has been well and truly kicked down the road. Will, James and special guest Tom discuss a much-needed but not impressive win over Wolves (somehow they are worse than us and that is the only reason why we won). The boys break down Lopetegui's bizarre tactics, strange subs and inability to see the obvious areas where it is all going wrong. Does he dodge the sack for the entire season? There is also chat about Mohammed Kudus's form, Jarrod Bowen's brilliance and Michail Antonio's car crash.

  • Opposition View: Wolves, with Will from talkSPORT
    Dec 5 2024
    The ultimate 'El Sackico' is here. Somehow both Julen Lopetegui and Gary O'Neil are still in work but the loser on Monday night is almost certainly out the door. Both teams come into this having suffered shockingly bad results in midweek. The Hammers' 3-0 loss to Leicester incredibly did not win the worst result of the week as Wolves were smashed 4-0 by a bang average Everton side. We discuss where both clubs should go next given the inevitable sackings in store and why it has gone so wrong this season.

  • 283. Crash back down to Earth - including a Leicester opposition view
    Dec 2 2024
    Disastrous, depressing and dismal. All that hope from the Newcastle game evaporated in 45 minutes at the hands of Arsenal. Will and James are back to chat about where it all went wrong against the Gunners and we also look forward to an absolutely huge game against Leicester, with an opposition view bedded in with Jake Watson from The Big Strong Leicester Boys Podcast Despite the awfulness of West Ham's performance, there are reasons to be happy as Will has made a pledge that will be music to many listeners' ears (you've heard of Dry January, it is time for Dry Moyes'. Also, James goes on a rant about Arsenal's "dark arts" in one not to miss. And after things kicked-off in the stands (not just every few minutes on the pitch in the first-half), we discuss how to stop letting away fans in our home end.

  • Opposition View: Arsenal, with the Deluded Gooner
    Nov 29 2024
    There is little time to bask in the glory of that exceptional Newcastle win as Arsenal are in town! Will is joined by CJ Needham (aka the Deluded Gooner) to preview Saturday night's London derby. It is a must-win game for Arsenal as they trail leaders Liverpool by nine points and a loss to the Hammers will give them a mountain to climb. Can West Ham ruin their title hopes for the third season running? The lads also discuss the return of Declan Rice and the way he is being used tactically by Mikel Arteta. Plus, CJ tells us exactly how his side will score beyond Lukasz Fabianski. Remember, if you love what we do, please leave us a nice review on whatever platform you're listening on.

  • 282. Pleasantly surprised
    Nov 27 2024
    Wow! Did anyone see that coming? West Ham out played Newcastle in a well-deserved win to ease the pressure on Julen Lopetegui. It all means there’s a positive feel around an episode for the first time in a while and a break from the reminiscing of the David Moyes era from Will. We break down where it all went right against Newcastle and how it could prove the turning point of the season as Lopetegui may have finally cracked the midfield conundrum. Plus, we finish on the recent heat James' David Sullivan comments got on social media. Remember, if you love what we do, please leave us a nice review on whatever platform you're listening on.

  • Opposition View: Newcastle, with Aaron from The Chronicle
    Nov 22 2024
    The international break is over and West Ham are back! Unfortunately, the return comes with little enthusiasm given how the season has gone so far - but perhaps Julen Lopetegui has finally cracked it during the break? West Ham face a tough trip to Newcastle on Monday night and we look ahead to the game with Newcastle reporter Aaron Stokes. We discuss what has been a mixed season for the Geordies so far, surprise pressure mounting on Eddie Howe and how they could cause the Hammers problems.
