West Ham boss Allardyce: Critics have gone quiet

West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce says criticism of his management has dried up.

The Hammers could win for a third successive game if they beat Swansea City.

Allardyce said: "I think we're winning a lot of people over.

"Any fans at any football club, when results aren't going well, make themselves heard.

"I think you always win them over if the club starts winning games, plays better and buys better players.

"That is the benefit that we've got up to now because the new players and the players we've had a few years have all raised their game.

"I don't get that many letters these days. I get a few emails. But generally the letters I get, if they're not very nice they're not very nice and that's the way it is."
