Totally agree with Gareth Clarke. What else do we expect as Hammers fans? We scraped together only 42 goals last season and still managed to finish 9th. I doubt if we ll score many more this season and we certainly won t be that high, trust me. It s a

Totally agree with Gareth Clarke. What else do we expect as Hammers' fans?

We scraped together only 42 goals last season and still managed to finish 9th.

I doubt if we'll score many more this season and we certainly won't be that high, trust me.

It's all part and parcel of being an Irons fan and I've suffered for 45 years.

The season after the World Cup win we scored 80 goals, conceded 84 and came 12th. And that was with King Bobby in the defence!!!

Those were the days of 5 all draws at the Bridge, 4-3 at Totts etc etc.

Now it's try to pinch a goal and hang on, and especially at home we struggle as our home record shows from last season. But we have a sound defence and a hardworking midfield and we'll just have to make do!!!!!!!!!
