Nuno Espirito Santo has made a slow start to his West Ham career, and it did not pick up in his home debut. The Hammers were comprehensively beaten by Brentford and thousands of supporters voted with their feet by boycotting the match in protest of the club’s board.
There was a noticeable number of empty seats on display at the London Stadium, with supporters’ group Hammers United claiming that more than 20,000 season ticket holders had taken part in the demonstration.
