So the Spursy is still alive and well

Agreed. Massive respect for Moyes after being kicked into touch could have been easy to tell the Dave's to shove their offer

They got lucky he wanted to return

I think his experience with ManU convinced him that being manager of a 'massive' club was not for him, so West Ham and he are a 'good fit'. He wasn't so much 'kicked into touch' as came to the end of his contract, Pelligrini was available and the Daves were ambitious. I hope they've learned from that! He's back and they are back amongst the 'big boys' again. Long may they stay there, even if at the bottom end for a few years.

Spurs giving Arsenal and United renewed hope!
Does nobody want 4th spot?

You can guarantee United won’t capitalise on other teams dropping points.

City don’t often sell out games anyway. But I can certainly understand why, on an Easter weekend where travel from the northwest to London was known to be problematic, fans may have opted to stay away.

I have never agreed with semi finals being played at Wembley anyway because it devalues the FA Cup. But the lack of common sense at times, especially during a cost of living crisis the likes of which most have never seen, is breathtaking.

Maybe they’re all busy doing family stuff or working ?‍

I agree on the semi finals not being at Wembley and it being a poor choice but Liverpool managed to sell the lot and get there - it’s the semi final of the FA Cup and City are supposed to be a huge club now, is it all a bit false and financially huge ?‍

Some guy I know was trying to convince me a true fan is one that goes over land and sea. Misses family occasions and friends weddings to see west ham, committing £££ year

I normally find these people are one of three things

Lonely
Divorced
Or skint

Sometimes all 3

Liverpool have more tourists and supporters in the south of the country.

Is that all you have now ? Just posting cheap digs on social media about someone using social media ?

Also the club clearly don't rate the fixture highly either .. Liverpool full strength, city rotated as they want champs League and the league.. some fans won't travel for that

What the hell was he doing

United's defence, absolutely shambolic.
It's so bad, it's almost funny.
