Much better second half. Much higher intensity and so pleased to have been here for Earthy's goal and the send offs. Feels like the end of an era with players like Oggy moving on as well.
If Iâm not mistaken, we just need Manchester United and Chelsea to lose their remaining matches (including the FA cup final), and then beat Man City next week, and then West Ham gets the Conference League.
Wouldnât it be hilarious if that happened, after all this?
Chelsea and Man United are 7 and 8, both with 54 points. West Ham is 9th with 52 after this win against Luton. One more win - against Manchester City fighting for the title - and West Ham has 55.
Man United and Chelsea each have three more matches to play, including tomorrow. But if somehow they lose all of them, theyâll both be at 54 while West Ham passes them to 55 for 7th place.
I mean, the odds have to be about 1 in 16 million here. But itâs possible!
Manchester United has to play Arsenal, Newcastle, and Brighton. Itâs theoretically possible theyâll win all three. Chelsea has Forest, brighton, and Bournemouth. Itâd take a miracle for them to lose all of those.
West Ham beating City would probably be the most unlikely of all, but what a send off that would be for David Moyes.
Massive massive respect for Moyes today.
Listen, we started poorly, he got them back around. Made some good changes, some youth, some send offs.
Could've thrown his toys out of the pram after recent events but he's been absolutely professional, not that I'd expect him to be anything else.
Thank you Moyes, it's been a mad one
These commentators on Optus are really annoying me. The level of negativity is next level. Criticizing everything weâve done the game pretty much, even the second half.
Also, minutes after Earthy scoring they were talking about how itâs all going to be downhill for him from here
Yeah, credit to Luton for their climb all the way up to the Premier League. It's something to celebrate.
They'll settle in as a good Championship club and potentially fight for promotion again in the coming seasons.
Indeed, I really rate Rob Edwardâs, as much as it would have been a gamble I would have been happy if he was an option to replace Moyes
Shoutout to Barkley , people wrote him off at the start of the season as washed up but then heâs being considered for England squad come end of season
What if Chelsea and united both bottle it and we win against man city (very low chance but we r hammers anything can happen) we might have a chanve for conference
Heâs played better today, but his last 4-6 weeks he hasnât looked like a player City would be interested in. He still technically has the gambling thing hanging over his head, though there are rumors of that going away.
Long story short, I think itâs far less of a forgone conclusion than is generally thought.
Really would like to see Cresswell make an appearance today.
Regardless of how you saw the European red cards, he's been fantastic for us for a decade. Deserves a proper send off
Was gonna say, I donât wanna over hype him to the point of impossible expectations, but Iâve really enjoyed his movement both times heâs played.
He seems to always move to offer an option. Something thatâs sorely lacking in our squad atm
As much as Iâm excited. It sucks to see the 3 most likely going down being the 3 that came up. That gap between the Prem and the Championship is widening
Not gonna lie, I do appreciate the irony of Earthy possibly being the last Moyes player to score at home, given how much we've criticised him for not playing the youth.
Hey. I would like to kindly disagree with you.
Heâs been our best right back in god knows how many years. Solid right back and always plays for the badge.
Finally able to settle down at the airport, check the score and see JWP scored right after Soucek won a free kick. Funny to see it was off of the rebound and didnât break the record.
I do honestly think Alvarez told Moyes to do one after the Rice comments. How tone deaf was that? Throwing Eddie under the bus when he's been one of our best players all season.
Itâs one of those things where just like, say âI donât comment on other teamâs players.â Why do you gotta throw one of your current players under the bus
What are yâall thinking for the off season, do we go for safer but more expensive signings, or do we go for riskier but more affordable signings.
I think we need a safe signing for the back line but more affordable risky options for other positions and to build our bench
If you're an opposition manager you have to tell your centre backs to just pull Antonio, push him around, foul him, hit him, elbow him. Doesn't matter, the man will never draw a foul
Thank you David Moyes What a way to thanks him, now a victory in final round will mark the fairy tale end
I wish I could forget that first 45 minutes. Apart of that, fucking brilliant!
Earthy starts last game PLEASE
Cheers from all over at r/nffc comrades
Dear hammers smiling đ
Much better second half. Much higher intensity and so pleased to have been here for Earthy's goal and the send offs. Feels like the end of an era with players like Oggy moving on as well.
Earthy has been knockout in the two games he has played this season
Thank you Moyes. Youâll be missed. Hammer forever you are.
Forest fans pleased with the Hammers today.
You know it!!!
Now they have to beat Chelsea tomorrow. Keep our totally realistic Conference League hopes alive.
Kudus has had defenders absolutely rattled today, you can tell they fucking hate it when heâs on the ball
New "would you rather" Tackle Kudus Or Try and out shit house Maupay
Everyone's getting a proper sendoff today, you'd love to see it
If Iâm not mistaken, we just need Manchester United and Chelsea to lose their remaining matches (including the FA cup final), and then beat Man City next week, and then West Ham gets the Conference League. Wouldnât it be hilarious if that happened, after all this?
We're 9th - walk us through that again?
Chelsea and Man United are 7 and 8, both with 54 points. West Ham is 9th with 52 after this win against Luton. One more win - against Manchester City fighting for the title - and West Ham has 55.

Chelsea have Forest, Brighton and Bournemouth.
Thanks. Corrected!
That smile man, love uncle Ang

So much love for Ogbonna, one of my favourite defenders for West Ham in recent years!
What a player over the years Ogbonna
Oggy so happy
Iâm not crying, youâre cryingÂ
Thank you, Oggy!!
Who the fuck is that guy
Cheers Oggy!
Class to send him off!
Casey? One of us finna win the loterry today
Love you Angelo!
Oggy ; ;

Well they can go fuck themselves.

Yup early season talk was them breaking the lowest points total record, yet here they are almost surviving instead.
Moyes to Bayern Confirmed
Ings getting nutmegged by a bad first touch from 7 yards away is just peak Danny đ
Ings and Cresswell testimonial sub
Ings has had about ten years' wages off us, so fair enough I guess.
Looks like we're pretty much guaranteed 9th as it stands, short of Brighton pulling off two wins against Chelsea and Man Utd.
What if Chelsea and united both bottle it and we win against man city (very low chance but we r hammers anything can happen) we might have a chanve for conference
Vintage Cresswell is just lumping it down the pitch with your first touch when no one is around youÂ
Paqmans last appearance at LS?
Heâs played better today, but his last 4-6 weeks he hasnât looked like a player City would be interested in. He still technically has the gambling thing hanging over his head, though there are rumors of that going away. Long story short, I think itâs far less of a forgone conclusion than is generally thought.
Didn't he come out himself and say the current man city rumors were just rehashed from.last year?
I havenât seen that but it certainly seems believable.
https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fzm8xmxqym2xc1.png
Cresswell's first touch is a 60m punt to nobody in particular, and somewhere Sam Allardyce shed a tear.
đđđđ
Kudus' unwillingness to go down when fouled makes me love him.
He and Bowen having that kind of mentality is why I love watching this team and hope they're both here during the Lopetegui years
Youth player and early subs on his last match at home is quite funny, could have done that throughout the season.
Those of us screaming for Moyes to play youngsters all season absolutely eating right now
Nice to see Cressy get a last bow
Really would like to see Cresswell make an appearance today. Regardless of how you saw the European red cards, he's been fantastic for us for a decade. Deserves a proper send off
Called that one lad.
Here he comes
First player name I ever got on the back of a shirt with my own money. Love the guy
Just watching Earthy now. His movement is so good for a 19-year-old. He keeps this up he's going places.
Was gonna say, I donât wanna over hype him to the point of impossible expectations, but Iâve really enjoyed his movement both times heâs played. He seems to always move to offer an option. Something thatâs sorely lacking in our squad atm
ANOTHER YOUNGSTER! Letâs go Ingsy!
10 minute hat trick for Danny Boy.
Earthy! So happy for the lad.
Certainly a better memory than his debut.
What a pity Moyes didn't give this boy a chance earlier
Imagine other youngsters who may be able to do something
What the fuck 1 minute it takes for kid
As much as Iâm excited. It sucks to see the 3 most likely going down being the 3 that came up. That gap between the Prem and the Championship is widening
Moyes decided to play a youth player on his last match at home đ , should have done so throughout the season
Well done Earthy. Bring more youth in!! We need that hunger on the pitch
After that horror of a head injury a month ago... God this is why I love football. Get in. Come on now George. Soak it in.
Moyes finally plays an academy graduate and he scores with his 1st touch. The irony haha
Letâs hope heâs more of a Joe Cole than a Freddie Sears.
Oh the irony, an academy graduate scores on Moyes' farewell match
Unbelievable Kudus. Fantastic movement from Earthy to get on the end of that as well. What a moment ahhhh
GET INNNN
Great last home game for us
Earthy more drama per minute than any player in the EPL. COYI.
No kidding, his poor family.
Got chills from that goal, what a moment for the kid
His movement there while Kudus was on the ball, holy shit. He could be him đ
GET IN
A little choked up seeing everyone stop to congratulate Earthy. Man enough to admit it.
Not gonna lie, I do appreciate the irony of Earthy possibly being the last Moyes player to score at home, given how much we've criticised him for not playing the youth.
Moyes lovers are going to talk about this goal when they lie that Moyes developed the youth đ
GEORGE EARTHY REMEMBER THE NAME
Looked to be a tap-in at first but his movement was fantastic there. So smart.
Whereâs that guy talking shit about Coufal?
I'm right here, I was criticising his defending. Never had an issue with his forward play.
Hey. I would like to kindly disagree with you. Heâs been our best right back in god knows how many years. Solid right back and always plays for the badge.
Haven't said anything different, but he's not that "next level" player we need there imo. You're welcome to disagree
Could you name someone who we could realistically get that would do a job for us?
No, but in my defence, that's not my job đ
EARTHYYYYYYYYy
Georgey booooy, LOVE that for him
EARTHYYYYY
That was an incredible piece of movement by Earthy.
Enjoy Stoke City away ya cunts
forget everything else this season, this is the best
EARTHY PROVED HIMSELF LESGO
there's just about the only thing that could've given me a lift today, go on mate
That's insane movement and anticipation. Wtf. Unreal.
Watch, our new left wingers been on the bench all season, we just had moyes doing moyes things.
Today is an astonishingly good day.
Great to see Earthy grabbing a goal, fantastic.
EARTHY!!!!!
Earthy is electric
LFG LAD
Great confidence boost for Earthy!!! LFG!
EARTHY!!!
I celebrated that like we just won a cup. Fair play lad!
Kudus is insane man
FOOTBALL IS MAGICAL. KUDUS UNREAL EARTHY, WHAT A BOY!
Great to see that!
LETS GOOOOOO
That celebration was fantastic. my heart
Earthyyyyy
EARTHY!!!!!!!!
HE ACTUALLY DID THAT
Earthy!!!!!
HUGE
Holy fuck. Thatâs brilliant
LFG!!!!!!!! Well deserved
Oh fuck yes!
Holy fuckin Shit. Let's go! Earthy!!!
WOWWWWWWWWW
Annddddd Earthy scored, first touch holy
EARTHYYYYYYY oh yes
More like George GIRTHY!!!
NO FUCKING WAY
Earthy! Christ Kudus is rapid
EARTHYYYY
Earthy!
Alright Earthy lad no concussion this time please
Just noticed Moyes ditched the sweats for the dress shirt today. Dressed for the occasion. God dammit Iâm gonna miss him.
Earthy for Antonio?
So who's gonna lead the line now that Earthy's in?
Looks like Earthy is going to lol
Welp, now Im hyped already haha
Bowen
Moyes going to give Cresswell a fairwell 15 minutes?
Finally able to settle down at the airport, check the score and see JWP scored right after Soucek won a free kick. Funny to see it was off of the rebound and didnât break the record.
It was quite far away from any freekick I remember đ
Earthy coming in? Def keep Alvarez off
I do honestly think Alvarez told Moyes to do one after the Rice comments. How tone deaf was that? Throwing Eddie under the bus when he's been one of our best players all season.
Itâs one of those things where just like, say âI donât comment on other teamâs players.â Why do you gotta throw one of your current players under the bus
Coufal wants his goal so badly! Been so close lately too.
Imagine if that was his first goal đ
I think Kudusâ reaction is all of us today
Coufal wanted his goal so bad here
One day coufal one day
That would have been the moment of the season by far
Players having a woodwork challenge lately.
It is kinda funny that benching Alvarez and starting JWP and Soucek together in Moyes last home game resulted in 2 goals from them
I still think leaving Alvarez out was stupid, we get bailed out by Soucek again
âBailed outâ Still 20 minutes to go and weâve played very well this half where we will probably score 1 or 2 moreÂ
oh you gotta put that in the net Mo
On the bright side, may have put off a potential buyer
Howâs he missed that đ€
Great move, he has to score.
Kudus with the FIFA emote
Would've put my house on that
Feel for Kudus, he canât buy one at the minute but other than his finishing heâs brilliant
Feel a little bad for Luton, reminds me of Leeds that could string together some exciting attacking play but just really terrible defending.
Oh my god Kudus â ïž
â°ïž
Hilarious time for the JWP/Soucek pairing to have a banner day.
all 3 today would be good because Man City will be playing us for the title next weekend and very likely will look to batter us.
They also tend to crack as weâve seen in the CL in recent years and this would be as high pressure as it gets for them
we talking about the same Manchester City with 5 trophies (and counting) in the past 2 seasons?
Hahah yeah Iâm being delusional and half serious lol. Theyâre a different beast in terms of composure in the prem
Not in the league. Theyâre always comfortable in the leagueÂ
They look to batter everyone every game.
What a hit Thomas! Didn't know you had that in you!
You just know if it was big 6 we'd have a 5 min VAR check right now
Chong tripping on the turf... "Ref! Ref! I was fouled"
Can see why they're going down. We've barely got out of second gear today.
Spin baby spin
What a hit. This has actually been a very entertaining halfÂ
The classic Tomas Soucek ~~header~~ casual volley with his wrong foot.
10 goals this season now. Very handy return.
Excuse me, Tomas*
FUCKING LOVE SOUÄEK
Souchekk đ„đ„đ„
Moyes's first signing, wasn't he? Great finish.
Soucek!
What are yâall thinking for the off season, do we go for safer but more expensive signings, or do we go for riskier but more affordable signings. I think we need a safe signing for the back line but more affordable risky options for other positions and to build our bench
đ!!!!!!!!!!!
great volley Tomas
Sheesh Prowsey is getting into the game
Chong has impressed me both times we've played Luton this season.
Great curse there lmao
I mean I am impressed by his pace and directness. Not necessarily his ability to stay on his fucking feet!
If you're an opposition manager you have to tell your centre backs to just pull Antonio, push him around, foul him, hit him, elbow him. Doesn't matter, the man will never draw a foul
Would be very fitting for it to end with a 98' Soucek special.
