West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce "sad" about away draw to West Brom in FA Cup

Sam Allardyce admits that he is "sad" to see that West Ham United have been drawn another away fixture when they take on West Brom in the FA Cup fifth round.

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has claimed that his team will need to "do it the hard way" if they are to progress to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

The Hammers will face fellow Premier League side West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns in the fifth round.

West Ham were put into the hat after securing a 1-0 away win over Bristol City on Sunday.

"It is sad we have been drawn away from home again, but we have won two rounds and will have to try and do it the hard way," said Allardyce via the club's official Twitter page.

In the Premier League, West Ham are currently seventh in the table.
