Sam Allardyce vows to entertain West Ham United fans

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce wants his side to play entertaining football in order to win over the fans who were left frustrated by their defeat at West Brom.

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has said that he hopes to win over disgruntled supporters with entertaining football for the rest of the season.

The Hammers boss was subjected to criticism by travelling fans at The Hawthorns on Saturday during his side's 4-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Allardyce has admitted that, while he can understand the frustration caused by the result, he is hopeful that the Hammers can give their supporters plenty to shout about in the final months of the Premier League campaign.

"You do your job professionally. When they are happy they cheer you and applaud and say how well you have done. When they are not happy then they show their disappointment. It's the same all over the country," he told the Daily Mail.

"It's my job to get the players out on the field, hopefully entertain them and win as much as we can, which is what we have done for 85-90% of this season.

"The disappointment about this is it's a cup game and we're out. We will just have to try and bounce back and finish the season as strongly as we can."

West Ham travel to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
