Notts Forest vs West Ham (Live on ITV1)

[Southstandfaithful]

What a goal as well! Can't help but feel sorry for that kid ITV showed!

Poor mite

Another example of Premier league managers showing utter contempt to what was once the competition everyone wanted to win.

I'm a little suspicious of this. He's got them in a terrible formation that clearly wasn't working to begin with and hasn't made any attempt to alter it. The defenders have stood there watching the Forest players for their goals. I know they're all youngsters, but no one is this poor accidentally.

Harding is playing well!

Allardyce is safe. What fascinates me is that shammers get non stop sympathy from the commentators for having to field an inexperienced side but the reality is that they are much more disrespectful if the competition than Villa yesterday.

It's utterly disrespectful to the fans, they've paid good money and travelled some way only to be let down in spectacular fashion.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

If I was a west ham fan I would demand my money back. This has been a totally gutless performance

 

[Pavilionaire]

If they can beat Man City in the League Cup semi-final on Wednesday West Ham fans won't give a hoot about this result. Allardyce has bad injuries too.

That said, West Ham like a good cup run and to be dumped out of both cups in quick succession would load the pressure on Allardyce as the season would be over and only a relegation dogfight would be left. He needs to do A LOT of business in the transfer window, along with Gus and Pulis.

I would say the comparative rewards of being in the premiership are so great, the cup is an irrelevence to them. Though, playing like this West Ham won't be in the prem much longer.

 

[The Wizard]

Absolutely appalling from West Ham, never seen a side look so poorly set up and disinterested, but then I suppose if your manager publicly devalued the tournament you're probably not going to be overly bothered are you.

Make it FIVE, 5-0

 

[dougdeep]

A 5 star performance from Forest. A long journey home for the Eastenders. 5-0

 

[TomandJerry]

5-0

The post match interview should involve the words..."that's what you get when you don't respect the cup Sam"

Oh 5-0

5-0 what a game!

Btw these ITV commentators are the worst I've ever heard, not sure who the co-commentator is but be sounds like he's dribbling his words out.

Utter shambles, totally clueless Wet Sham
