Footy Fotos Day 86b - Hammers fans up in arms My picture here was taken in the nineties and is used for it symbolism. Last night West Ham United beat Hull City 2-1 at Upton Park. A home win. The Hammers sit 11th in the Premier League. West Ham played against ten men for more than an hour - but failed to dominate, frustrating some home fans who resorted to booing during the game. Manager Sam Allardyce joined West Ham in June 2011 and guided them to promotion from the Championship before securing a 10th place finish in the Premier League in the 2012-13 season. Ive never been in a place where Ive won and got booed, said Allardyce, 59. Fans affect players. We dont need them on players backs when we are coming off three defeats. They have to stay and help them win. He added: At half-time, the players were talking more about fans booing them than the game. I had to make sure they kept focused on the field. I started playing at 16, got in a first team at 18 and am 59 now, but Ive never been in place where I won and got booed. My team Charlton Athletic are battling against relegation from the Championship. We are gaining three points by winning one-nil, our last three wins have been by that score. It might not be pretty but I will settle for more of the same to stay up.
