Some West Ham fans have been pleading on Twitter for manager Manuel Pellegrini to be fired from the club after a disappointing 3-2 defeat to Newcastle at the weekend.
These calls come after a tweet shared by the official West Ham Twitter account announcing the final score in their home defeat against Newcastle.
This tweet was met with a lot of Hammers fans calling for a change in management.
Here’s a sample of West Ham fans unhappy with Pellegrini:

What do we think?
West Ham’s performance in the first-half against Newcastle was dire, but at least they showed some spirit and fight in the second half to try and claw a result back, but it was too little too late.
West Ham currently sit in 13th place in the Premier League table. They have not won a Premier League match since their 2-0 win over Manchester United back in September, so it’s understandable why some fans are not best pleased with the manager at the minute.
But, things aren’t all doom and gloom as West Ham have the squad to get out of this rut they currently occupy.
