Fat Sam will go down in history for his very very short time as England Manager, getting caught with his trousers down was so funny and probably predictable. Stuart Pearce should do some research before coming onto channels like this and speaking about the history of West Ham as he hasn't a clue. Sam has made a career of insulting West Ham fans but I never expected it from Stuart Pearce.
Every time a pundit says West Ham fans should 'be careful what they wish for' I wish they would stop spouting cliches.
Pearce admits Moyes is quite negative, why are the fans not allowed to make the same observation? Moyes may well be dedicated and hard working, but why can't they imagine West Ham finding a replacement who could also turn up early in the morning and drive the club forward? Surely that would be a basic part of the job description?
West Ham have a terrible defending record at the moment, we concede in the first ten minutes more than anyone else in the league, we don't score from set pieces, we have a woefully thin squad, we have failed to take advantage of successive winter transfer windows and we wasted the talents of Anderson, Haller and Scamacca.
If we lose one first team player to injury or suspension we fall apart and despite winning a European trophy, we were in a relegation battle most of last season. We have failed to find a replacement for Antonio for years, still don't have a left winger, don't have anyone on the bench who can compete for a place in the team, we have let key pkayers leave without replacing them and don't have a plan B. We park the bus rather than attacking and we still concede more goals than anyone other than the bottom three.
Seen what happens on Thursday against Bayer, I expect it to be the final nail in Moyes' coffin.
Cause the last Time they threw him out they came begging back
Update. After 45 excellent minutes in the first half against Bayer, the second half was more like the West Ham we have grown used to under Mr M. We ran out of steam, the changes were made too late, strange choices of subs were brought on leading to a tactical defeat at the hands of manager more able to adjust as the game progressed and use all five of his subs promptly and effectively. We eventually drew 1-1 and got knocked out of Europe. Moyes predicted the team would bounce back, we then conceded 5 away to Palace three days later.
We are the softest touch in the league and heading for a Premier League record tally of goals conceded. We now have to face Liverpool and City fighting for the title, Chelsea fighting for Europe and Luton fighting for survival. They must all be rubbing their hands together with glee at the prospect of playing West Ham. It is embarassing. He has to go.
Football dinosaurs both of them and their mate Moyesey
Spot on geezer clueless at what we want as fans
I have so much respect for these guys, especially Big Sam.
He must have so much more he can still give to the game, whether it's as a manager or Director of Football, if I had the money to buy my favourite club I would do whatever I could to get Big Sam involved in running it in some way.
It's a massive shame how quickly people are classed as dinosaurs of the game, Mourinho is apparently a dinosaur now too.
Despite these guys being better than 95% of the managers across all the clubs in the English football pyramid, people would still prefer to give a big job to someone who won a cup for a foreign club or someone who used to win trophies as a player.
So very underrated and I hope one day they get the recognition they deserve!
@shoji-josuzuki1641 They already got respect from the dumb clubs owners who employed these out of work dinosaurs. Oh hang on didn't our club do that with allardyce and moyes as they were cheap and out of work .
@@razorwestham5949 didn't these dinosaurs save your club from the trouble the exciting forward thinking managers you wanted got you into in the first place?!
I was born 68, so the 70's was amazing as a child growning up,, we had all the street games, knock knock ginger, tin can ally, and the grand national races (hedge jumping) in west wales....
14:03 There's a different view and there's a different philosophy. Warburton likes to play a possession based game with attacking football. Moyes likes a rigid, direct, structured team. Not saying either is right or wrong, but it's like Pep employing Tony Pulis because he has a different view....
Yep. Hedge jumping was a sport on my council estate in the seventies!! Loved it 😊
I agree 100% ....any team with a defence that doesn't concede has the ingredients to win...
Its common knowledge in the football world that Stuart Pearce is not the sharpest tool in the box whilst Sam Allardyce thinks that he's the smartest person in the room. Big Sam is nothing more than a bitter old man who can't accept that football has moved on and left him behind, that's why he calls his boring show Tippy Tappy as he wants to devalue and make fun at tactical football because he's threatened by.
I love Pearcey but I don't agree. I wasn't born in the 70s so I have no idea what that 'style of play' was like. I just feel like we deserve to play better football with the stadium and the type of players we currently have (Bowen, Paqueta, Kudus as our front 3). We shouldn't be playing defensive football all the time when we have the best attacking trio in the league and we should be much higher than 8th at the moment with Chelsea 1 point behind us with 2 games in hand! We play defensive football all the time but we are conceding goals far too much which isn't right for a defensive playing team. You can see players are getting frustrated! We have conceded the joint 4th most goals this season in the Prem with the likes of Forest and Bournemouth behind the bottom 3 who are getting relegated. That isn't good enough for a team like us who are European Champs and competing in Europe for 3 seasons in a row.
In a Blackburn estate in the late 70's all the kids played scatter which involved lots of hedge diving. It didn't have a specific name, it was just part of what you had to do to free those captured. Great fun and better than any computer game.
1st Generation Wednesbury Branch Hedge Diver here 👍
Great show as per!
Hedge jumping was a thing for me when I was about 14 as well. Lived in a Leicestershire village called Asfordby and if we couldn't get enough people to come out and play football, the rest of us would go hedge jumping. I once jumped a hedge and didn't see that there was a bloke stood in the garden smoking. This hedge was about 6ft tall and I was buzzing that I managed to get over it, but once I landed, he said something and I absolutely bricked myself 😂
one of the best defenders of all time
Sam "Like ya mean" Allardyce
Brilliant. Can we please have a part 2 where he goes more in depth about gazza, italia 90 etc. Thanks 👍
Around my way it was called bush diving and cherry knocking. It was so much fun at the time 😂
I love Stuart Pearce! , dog named after him ❤️
How dare Pearce and Allardyce criticise West Ham and wanting to play "The West Ham Way". Only won 4 trophies... be careful what you wish for nonsence... SORRY but how many trophies has Moyes won in his career? a lot bloody less than West Ham. Yes Moyes will be forever etched in West Ham's history by delivering our second European trophy... but remember... West Ham will always be his most successful ever spell as a manager. He should be thankful to West Ham in giving him a second chance when nobody else would. West Ham have allowed him to be relevant again... especially when he relegated Sunderland.
Knocking and running was called Thunder and lightning round my way. Knock like thunder, then run like lightning.
Sam Allardyce is like Stuart Pearce and so many others from "back in the day" (I hate saying that), you appreciate them today more than you ever did at the time. Legends and lovely with it too - top class.
Allardyce like Moyes at West Ham under rated
Allardyce was hated by West Ham fans for saying similar to what Pearce said re the West Ham way... that it didnt exist.. I think it was in one of his first interviews after joining... plus the ear cupping hateful man... and that story about his contract does anyone really believe if West Ham had offered him another contract he'd have turned it down... yeah right.. 🤣
We used to call it hedge hopping in doncaster and we also did knock a door run
Brilliant podcast, love Psycho n big Sam
Fantastic best one yet and there have been some wonderful ones. GT
Greetings from Geordie hedge diver , great podcast.
Knock down ginger isn’t solely London based, northerner here who played it in the early 90’s!
we use to do hedge diving when i was a kid. it would have been during the 90s
Hedge-hopping should be a Olympic sport 😂😂😂
No matter how many times he tells that David James story, he can never justify going that insane
How stunning is Natalie Pike 😮
Football dinosaurs the both of them
brilliant show, keeps getting better every time! Wish Stuart had a Scottish Grannie!!!
The look Pearce gives Natalie for the first 30 seconds..
You can tell he’s a smoothy.
Pearcey likes a tipple , good on him , great professional
Must do with that big red nose
I think people should remember.. that the major difference with Arsenal has come from WHU best player who has not been replaced. Rice was the best defender drove the team forward... he hasn't been replaced by even two extra players... such a big loss for WHU
Why would a lack of finance in football be the reason for innovation? It shows how big clubs did not add much value. But Europe had innovation in the 50s!
Defending is definitely an art, and Moyes is definitely a defensive manager, but West Ham doesn't defend very well at all. And we have had very few clean sheets.
Just look at the stats. Stats dont lie.
Stuart Pearce's nose is the same colour as West Ham's kit. I didn't know he was such a fan.
Knockout games seem boring now there's no away goals.
North Finchley Branch hedge divers. Great times 😂
Blimey Sam where have you been hiding about the away goals rule🙈🤣🤣🤣 Great Pod👍👍👍
I watch united every time they're on and I didn't know until about a year ago when my mate told me during a European game.
Essex branch of hedge diving back in the 80s 😜
Had a lot of time for Pearce but think they are all disrespectful to the memories of the likes of Greenwood and Lyall here, not to mention the Academy of Football started by Malcolm Allison, Noel Cantwell, John Bond etc. Stuart, go and look up the volume of players from the Club who went on to be successful managers and coaches. The West Ham Way was more than just entertaining football. Don't take my word for it read the books, In My Day Volumes 1 and 2 and They Played With John Lyall. Ex players can explain it far better than I can!
I want to see a bank manager do cryotherapy
When I was a kid you weren't normal if you didnt hedged dive or walking on walls
Tremendous player Stuart Pearce was. Proper leader. Never heard of him being a big drinker but I hope he ain’t struggling with booze? His nose looks like he’s hitting the whiskey a bit too much.
Plus a Stiff Little Fingers fan can't be a bad lad!!
When it comes to this podcast......Careful what you wish for
I use to do hedgehopping back in the day but we called in the grand national , Stuart’s right the computers etc have killed all the inventive games kids did to please themselves, if I told my daughter now what we did she’d look at me gone out😂😂
Im from Hereford, cider country and we called it hedge hopping, we weren't diving as today's player's do 😂
And literally we would hedge hop the whole street, back gardens only in the dark to make it more edgy not knowing what was over the next hop 😂, tidy like
My favourite inspirational Left Back with Andy Brehme. Hats off to Mr Psycho, what a Legend and Hero
London Calling:
Ginger, Ginger broke a winder,
Hit the winda (crack!).
The baker came out to give 'im a clout,
And landed on his back.
Sam dead right always have a gd defence the key to win games
Big Sam constantly talking about clean sheets and having a dig at coaches when his last few teams conceded about a billion goals. You've got to take responsibility Sam
Sorry Pearcey is talking bollocks and can't even get his facts straight about how many trophies we've won. The west ham style of play totally existed and if anything it probably cost us games when we could have shut up shop. It persisted even during the relegation battles and promotion campaigns. Okay we struggled at times but there was always that ethos. Even up to the late 90s under Redknapp we had an attractive style of playing. It was only after that period we had more pragmatic managers. To a certain extent its understandable its a lot harder to risk relegation at the expense of playing style. At the same time though pretty much every other team including some with less talented squads than West Ham play possession based football. I don't see it as that risky trying to hang on to the ball and we would probably concede less goals playing that way.
What a player Pearce was, hard as nails too👍
Brilliant ⚒⚒
Scoring Goals win games Not conceding Goals wins league titles,brilliant podcasts as ever 👍👍👏👏
We all know Allardyce hates West Ham so whenever he starts talking about them i turn off but as for Pearce,gone down in my estimations for sure,you played for West Ham and had 2 stints as a coach there so you should at least know your history and have more respect for those players and that history and the fans for that matter.Youve embarrassed yorself with those comments
Re England. Much like West Ham. Gareth has been a great manager, like David Moyes, to take a team to a good level. He is not the manger to take them to a championship. We'll win nothing, nothing without balls. Gareth bottled it with Italy. they were there for the taking and he bottled it. Fact. End of.
Moyes has the most losses in Premier league history. West Ham also have the 4th worst defence in the Premier league this season, having spent £500 million.
😂 what a ridiculous statement
El Moyes has won more premier league games than Guardiola and Klopp.
People who don't watch West Ham twice a week just don't get it. We were in a relegation fight most of last season and the season before had long spells of dross. Every time we have a midweek Europe fixture we are awful in the league. Yes he won a European trophy, thanks Dave, but10 men behind the ball for 85 minutes, no thanks.
Tomorrow night we will get uncermoniously dumped out of Europe, illustrating how limited our squad depth is, then we will drift down the league as teams like Chelsea, Brighton, Wolves etc overtake us because they have better players on the bench and better tactics. I'm countingbthe days till he leaves.
9 days on, Crystal Palace 4 West Ham 0 after half an hour. Should West Ham fans still be careful what they wish for, lads? That comment certainly didn´t age well, did it (after just 9 days!)? And these are supposed football experts 🤣😅🤣😂. Always best to tell it as it is and believe the evidence of your own eyes, I feel. Parhaps big Sam and Stu can come back on to ruminate on that one. I´m sure they would if the pay cheque were large enough.
Allardyce fails to realise moyes hsd had nore miney than ever ither manager weve had and look past our first 11 and we have no depth at all.
Pearce having a pop about the west ham way considering gis history with us is an absolute joke as well.
One of the worst managers in our entire history there.
Horton?
Top men, lovely woman.
Fat Sam was a rubbish West Ham and an England manager with boring tactics
Can we please permanently replace Sam with Tim. He doesn’t even know away goals don’t count. A bluffer and a dinosaur
