More disappointment for West Ham fans against Everton was greeted with a logical reaction.
It was as though West Ham United fans could predict Everton would beat them in the last minute at Upton Park – and it basically was as though Sam Allardyce had predicted Romelu Lukaku would score the winner in the build-up to the Premier League clash.
Big Sam had raved about the Everton striker all week – so why was he allowed to net so late in the game?
West Ham had bucked the trend with this one, actually taking the lead with a good goal during a competitive match. Allardyce’s men still let things slip, however, and supporters appear to have had enough of the 60-year-old (although many of them already had months ago).
Now, many of them have delivered a common message to West Ham’s owners on Twitter: that three wins in 20 Premier League games is just not good enough.
Indeed, the #AllardyceOut hashtag was all too common on social media both during and after the Hammers’ Everton defeat. What looks like a large majority of supporters want the current West Ham manager gone ahead of next season. Will it happen? And who’ll replace him if so?
