Feel sorry for Sam, stood out there is his coat getting pissed, his side wrecked with injuries and getting abused by his own fans.
He's a good bloke really.
How much abuse did the West Ham fans really give him though? I was in 111 next to the away end last night and I didn't hear anything that could be construed as abuse - there was a lot of good natured banter involving both sets of fans, much of it revolving around Allardyce admittedly, but I didn't hear anything that was particularly vitriolic or have I missed something? For me, the West Ham fans took that defeat really well and maintained their sense of gallows humour throughout without ever turning on their manager in a nasty way.
