160: Hunted by Wolves before Rapid & City

It's not often West Ham United can look back on a defeat and feel quite content. To be fair, it's not often the Hammers have to look back on a defeat at all these days, such is the superb job David Moyes is doing. The 1-0 defeat at Wolves last weekend was deserved, so there are no complaints from James Jones and Will Pugh on this week's podcast. The likes of Michail Antonio in particular felt the effects of travelling thousands of miles on international duty. But one thing we can be sure of is the team's ability to bounce back quickly from defeat and they've got a good opportunity to do that on Thursday night against Rapid Vienna in the Europa League. It's so disappointing fans won't be there to see it but the blow of having supporters banned by UEFA was softened slightly by Austria going into another national lockdown this week, meaning the game will be played behind closed doors. All of that and much more is discussed on this week's show, as well as West Ham Women's huge 1-0 victory over Spurs with Kathryn Batte from the Daily Mail. Ahead of Sunday's trip to the Etihad, the lads are joined by David Mooney from the Blue Moon Podcast to get the lowdown on Man City for this week's Opposition View chat. And the lads talk through their Betway Charity Bet selections ahead of the weekend, with a couple of very, very attractive bets with decent odds!
