The crowd was quiet most of the game as the players gave so little to cheer. I do think any other manager would have been getting much more stick but the crowd don't really want to because he's a fan.

That started off badly, went downhill from there and the less said about the end the better. I think Smith is on borrowed time.

Marvellous is not playing in a top half team and he looked as good as most of the others.

It really shouldn’t have ended like this.  I hate this - I hate that Deans lost the team, I hate that he’s going to be sacked, I hate that Joe left - and most of all I hate the fact that I started to believe that this wasn’t all another false dawn

Dean has hardly lost the team
 Thats an over reaction if ever I read one

I mean, when one of your employees lobs a water bottle at you and another one storms off, you probably have lost them.

The only good thing about today is that I got almost all the way home before the rain started.
Dean has to go I’m afraid along with the whole of the coaching team.
I don’t ever want to see another long throw or see Ashley Young in midfield.
And as for Declan Rice giving it the big un to the Holte End…..just fuck right off. I dislike him almost as much as I dislike Patrick Bamford for that.

Was a steaming heap of dung that was. Haven't seen any of it again but felt Martinez should've done better with their first 2, and didn't think it was a red. Clear an obvious if it takes 10 minutes?

Marv was probably our best player, at least he seemed to have a bit of drive about him. Everyone else was pathetic.

This is a post that sums up exactly what I feel like right now.

Another false dawn.

The Konsa red was 50/50 for me, terrible defending in any case. Why dive in? Targett and Hause were stonewall reds, mind

11 v 11 and I thought we looked a rabble.

At the risk of being a happy clapper, I don't think tonight was that bad.

The worst part was the lack of pressure on their players first half which was how they found themselves 2-1 up.  Once we had Konsa wrongly sent off we were chasing the game and got done on the counter twice. West Ham didn't really offer much beyond being organised.

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a good performance but it also wasn't a "4-1 stuffing at home performance".

I'm glad Dean has ditched three at the back and I thought the team he picked could've got a result today, but the substitutions were bizarre (why being Young in to centre midfield when he could've brought El Ghazi on and moved Buendia inside given we were behind at that point?).

Pressure is massively on Dean now though. 4 on the bounce is bad, but given our upcoming fixtures if he can't stop the rot I think he's toast.

based on availability and form seemed a reasonable team.
