West Ham (h) pre-match thread

[Big Swifty]

What? A bit of a stiff breeze and a few drops of rain? It took more than that in the old days. You should have seen the pitches and weather conditions that prevailed at Maine Road when I were a lad.

Not to mention when I used to play at Hough End fields in conditions that resembled a Vietnamese paddy-field.

Get the buggers out there and get the match played!

Just looked at trains. Anyone confirm?

Normal times through stoke macc etc then Stockport but says a hour and 10 mins from Stockport to Piccadilly, that can’t be right surely??

Speed restrictions all over the Country.

Yes but a 10 minute journey takes 1 hour and 20 instead?

I have a ticket to Piccadilly anyone know if I’m able to get off at Stockport instead. Gonna be a bastard coming back :(

Might be a replacement bus service because they’ve been doing that between Stockport and town off and on for a while now - work on the line going on off peak. I have a mate who lives in Macc but socialises in Manchester and it drives him bonkers.

Well I hope it’s called off. Now checking out of the Great John Street Hotel to head back to Lancaster as my sister has just told me my dad passed away an hour ago.

feel very weird and about to head back up the m6 in this weather.

Sad news, take care.

When did he make a few more appearances?

It's actually a joke now that Pep is refusing to use him.

Two more since Pellers went!

Just looked on train line and the 9:32 from Hazel Grove arrived at Piccadilly 2 mins late at 9:56. Where is this 1 hour 10 mins from Stockport to Piccadilly being reported?
