It seems every single time this season that the Hammers have a chance to go top they blow it?Although they had to win by 5 today it wasn't impossible as we had won there 5-0 the last time we played them, but once again if Southampton drop points so do we, it seems that Fat Sam doesn't want us to hit the top until the last gasp.
Injuries and suspensions didn't help today with most of the first team missing but we still should have had enough to overcome a poor Derby team.
The problem now is that Middlesbrough have hit form and should overtake us later in the day and Cardiff are closing in as well, a few weeks back the top two were well clear.
I didn't see any prediction of forgotten man Frank Nouble making the team today, and even if we had all remembered he was back with us after multiple loans you couldn't see why we needed yet another tall centre forward when Cole, Carew and Piquionne were all fit and little man Baldock was back from injury, but I suppose anyone is better than Piquionne and Carew at the moment.
Maybe those two should be sent off to Gillingham or Barnsley to learn how to score again, so welcome back Frank.
As for the transfer rumours there are too many to mention, one I like the sound of is the possible Zamora/Cole swap although Cole is probably the best of the big men we have up front I can't help feeling a Zamora and Baldock frontline would be pretty good.
