I’m Back

Sorry for not posting in a while but I have been a bit poorly.  That said the recent revival has lifted my spirits.  It’s still a huge ask to stay up, a win against Arsenal changes a lot.  While we’d all probably be happy with a draw I don’t think we can afford to go into this match with that attitude.  Better to go for it.  That’s the attitude that got us to the FA Cup final last year and it’s the attitude that has returned in the last couple of matches.  We must knock Arsenal off their stride early as we did at Upton Park.  I think we allow things like home and away to psych us out.  Ignore the fans and make the pitch your own.  That’s what winners do. 

I’ll give Bobby Zamora credit, his passion has matched Tevez’s skill ans they have made it work.  I still think Kepa Blanco and Tevez would be a devestating tandem and I’m curious what happened to Cole.  He has the type of skills that would compliment Tevez.  Still, Bobby has taken his chance and I think the Curb’s has helped settle things down by being more consistant in team selection of late and creating the balance that players can keep their place through good play rather than lose it to a whim.  I believe this settles a team.

Last thought – We love the things you have done for us Sir Ted and appreciate the clock is ticking on your career.  But, to slag off the manager in the press days before a make or break game (and the next six make or break games) is poor judgement and has displayed a selfishness that has me questioning if your attitude has not impacted some of the younger players this season.  We need leadership on the pitch and in the locker room and, like it or not, you are paid a wage to play your role on this team whatever it may be at the moment.  Please show us the class we believed you had, remember this is the club you claim to still support and help us get to the prize.  Then you can move on to pastures green with the love and support of your hometown fans intact, your cult status in Hammer’s history confirmed.
