We're back. With a good, tight, professional performance.
This, however, is hilarious. It didn't take long for the Hammers' bubble to burst. They've been put firmly back in the box as the makeweights they really are.

Great to see you're having none of the "brittle optimism of the chronically disappointed" approach.
No, you keep disrespecting the opposition. It adds greatly to my amusement when, inevitably, spurs stagger under the weight of the unexamined smugness and gloriously unrealistic expectation of their fans.

What the...is the phantom food poisoner still at work!!
I just want to uncover one of the world's biggest lies...for years certain sections of our community and mainstream media have perpetuated a lie that has led many to fall in to a trap of constant disappointment. This has created a whole underclass of whining and bitter people willing to sacrifice their dignity and self-respect, it is very sad you can hear these people usually after December calling in to Talksport or BBC Radio 5 airing their bitterness and spouting their foolish prattle (no its not George Galloway).
So to try to help diminish the number of people affected here is the big lie.....
spurs are a big club, ha ha come on you Irons
