Nuno ‘Hammers’ home truths about slump
Cape Argus
|October 22, 2025
NUNO Espirito Santo admitted “we have a problem” after West Ham suffered a lacklustre 2-0 loss at home to Brentford on Monday.
-
A night that started with a boycott by one set of Hammers fans ended with those who remained at the London Stadium booing the home side off the field, as goals from Igor Thiago and Mathias Jensen secured a first away win of the season for Brentford - who should have won by a larger margin.
Nuno’ first home match in charge coincided with a planned stay-away organised by supporters’ groups in protest against the club’s board.
Defeat meant the Hammers had lost their opening four home matches of a season for the first time in their history, with this reverse coming on the same day former boss Graham Potter, sacked by the club last month, was named as the new manager of Sweden.

Telling the truth shouldn't be a death sentence
SOUTH Africa loves a commission. We watch them like national crime dramas. We gasp, we tweet, we analyse and then we move on. But the people sitting in those witness boxes do not get to move on. Their danger does not end when the cameras stop rolling. For many of them, that is exactly when the danger begins.
