A nice 9 day break between West Ham and the blades should do nicely.

Not just that but I think it's the best possible set of fixtures for us. Man Utd and Sheff Utd are positional rivals and West Ham tend to give us a tough time under the lights infront of their fans. If we had played these fixtures before Coronavirus I think we would have lost all 3.

We have been given a golden opportunity here to basically forget all the shit, start again and prove we are better than we have been against Man Utd and Sheff Utd and West Ham have lost their edge of the fans. If we are the team we believe we are then we need to be going out there and winning all 3 and will give us a real indicator of whether we can get back for next season. If we falter tail end of this season I think we will be in for a tough season next season.

Bloke I know who is a West Ham fan told me that the club had been ringing round all fans over 65 to see if they were ok and if they could help with anything. His Dad received a call this week which he was touched about. Needless to say he acted as all Spammers do and felt the need to rub it in my face as some sort of way of proving that they are better than us. I detest them but still it is a nice gesture.....Twat!

It is a nice gesture, I'm sure it's easier to phone a few West ham fans as its a smaller fan base :whistle:
Cant be losing any income to pay for their rent...

It is a fantastic gesture and fair play to West Ham for doing this.

A friend of mine was involved in making the calls and said they didn't just ask whether the old fans were alright and whether they needed help. They also asked whether they could remember West Ham winning anything and what it was like.

Typical Eastenders "we take care of aa own"

Where as we use our Stadium (paid for by us) to help the NHS...

Still small time. and probably tried to strong arm them into buying double glazing when they said they were fine.

Seems like a waste of a phone call, they're West Ham fans, they obviously all need help!

Lots of clubs are doing this. Mabbsy was on 5 live the other day, talking about how he and other ex players were ringing elderly fans and having a 5 to 10 minute chat with them, which the club had organised.

They all replied that they really enjoyed winning the '66 World Cup!

Lamela is definitely the most frustrating player I’ve encountered supporting Spurs. It’s amazing after 7 years I still believe he will really come good ?

They're playing the fake crowd noise in the Leverkusen Bayern game right now on BT1, they're proposing on doing the same to the Prem games when they return. I have to say it does add to the experience, thumbs up from me.

Some of the crowd noise is a bit OTT for me but it's certainly better than none.
Enjoying the game whilst on here. Bayern certainly press really strongly.

We must have loads of recordings of groans we can pipe in to make the players feel at home...

Interspersed every 30 seconds with FFS Dele!

The tests aren't 100% accurate, could be a false negative this time around if they were re-tested.
