That is speculation, of course, but sometimes life really is that simple and it is certainly not far-fetched to suggest West Ham’s clumsy generosity on Saturday evening helped to keep Hughton in his job. In the first half the Canaries were abject, their confidence apparently in pieces as strikerless West Ham passed the …
