West Ham fans turned up to see what should of been a walk in the park but Bristol City held on to a draw at the Boleyn.

Sam Allardyce’s side had to settle for a dismal draw against the Robins.

Bottom of the table Bristol City must have feared the worst as they headed to Upton Park to face an in form West Ham side riding high in second spot but Derek McInnes side battled every inch of the way to force the point that lifted them off the league floor.

Following the weekend’s 3-2 win over Leicester City, Big Sam had made 3 changes as Frederic Piquionne, Freddie Sears and James Tomkins returned in place of John Carew, Jack Collison and substitute Abdoulaye Faye, who found himself on the bench alongside fit-again Peter Kurucz and young Robert Hall.

West Ham: Green, O’Brien, McCartney, Reid (Faye 7), Tomkins, Sears (Diop 75), Faubert, Noble, Nolan, Baldock (Cole 68), Piquionne. Unused Subs: Kurucz, Diop, Hall.
