West Ham: Ragnorak

West Ham kindly sacked Slaven Bilic before we recorded this time around enabling us to go to town on the Hammers, including Andy Carroll’s fairly robust advice for the fans. 


Elsewhere there's time for more handshake drama, the joy of bendy headers courtesy of Mr Morata, and Everton and Watford's game of the season contender which also provided something for Unsy to be happy about.


On top of that we learn about Graeme Souness’ small box, enjoy some cupsets and marvel at the evergreen, evermassive everPeter Crouch. Get him on some sort of plane.
