This is a massive game for us, just our luck that Leeds are now finding form and shutting up shop defending wise under the leadership of our arch nemesis Neil Warnock. Our record against teams managed by him, to put it mildly, is not too clever. The Sheffield United affair still leaves a bitter taste and Warnock did nothing to endear himself to Hammers fans with his words at the time.
However I have faith in Big Sam, he is not a panic merchant, the recent run of poor home form wont affect his mentality and focus and hopefully this will filter through the squad, our away record is exceptional and our destiny is still in our own hands. Our strikers cant keep firing blanks, things will change, hopefully sooner rather than later.
Where we have had a bit of a shaky run recently (still undefeated in 7) may be a blessing in disguise, these runs dont go on forever and we may string a few back to back wins together, and Reading hopefully will fall off the wagon slightly, just in time for their visit to Upton Park on March 31st, where my daughter Jessica will be a mascot for the match.
