Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Oh well, USA lost 3-2 but I cannot believe what a good match it was and how well USA played.  I would have been proud if England had fared so well.

Note to Vilya:

While Croatia might be pissed at England for the spanking they received last night, England will beat Ukraine too, so Croatia only have to beat Kazakhstan to be assured of being in the play-offs for the last four places.  I expect then, for you to have plenty of beer ready on October 10th when you may enjoy an English victory.

Ok, scrub that.

Sorry Vilya but it looks like Croatia are all but out of the world cup.

I was on a buzz from Leeds knocking Man U out and was hoping West Ham were going to dispatch Arsenal, but I suppose they paid the penalty for not taking some early second half chances. They seemed to deflate when Arsenal's first went in and they need a new keeper. And the less said about Upson being beaten in the air by Eduardo the better. Unlucky though, before the game I thought Arsenal were going to stroll it, but West Ham gave a good account of themselves.

West Ham were fantastic today considering the amount of players we have out, and what I think actually happened in the game was not the goal or Arsenal's pressure (West Ham easily coped with that) but was that dreadful moment about 75 minutes into the game when Diamanti looked have sustained a nasty injury.  My jaw dropped as he limped off the field and I couldn't help thinking that if he went out with an injury we'd have to ask the tea lady to make up the numbers.  I was trying to see the midway point where he was getting assistance to see how bad it was and I completely took my eye off the game - I could see some of the West Ham players anxiously looking over too.  Then all of a sudden the hole appeared and you cannot take much away from Ramsay's goal truth be told.

Second goal was soft after the usual meltdown that West Ham are prone to and the rest is history.

we'd have to ask the tea lady to make up the numbers.

I think she was already in goal.

Seriously though, what do West Ham fans think about Robert Green?

First couple of seasons I think we would have made him a saint, especially after the season when we beat Arsenal and Man U both home and away.  But since his "serious" international career has started I think he is always conscious that the mistakes he makes are picked up by the whole national football following and he looks far less natural in goal than he used to (which is self-evident but 2 or 3 games that he has personally gifted the opposition).

I personally still have faith as it's West Ham's inability to score goals that is their real undoing, however, letting in a sackful when you do score is doubly counter-productive.
