Hammers fans are currently evenly split over the question of replacing the under-fire Sam Allardyce - according to a KUMB members poll.
Supporters were asked to consider whether Sam Allardyce - who remains the bookies odds-on favourite to be the next Premier League manager to face the chop - should be allowed to continue in his post following United's dreadful first half of the season.The first 12 hours saw readers voting in their hundreds - resulting in an almost completely even 50/50 split. At the time of writing, the poll - which may be found on the KUMB Forum - has the two options (yes/no) separated by just ten votes.
That clearly indicates that despite pockets of dissent on the terraces, considerably more online and media reports to the contrary, the fan base - as a whole - does not support the immediate replacement of Allardyce, who prior to the beginning of the current 2013/14 campaign had both met and exceeded all his goals at West Ham.
The manager is understood to have attended a meeting with co-owner David Sullivan yesterday during which the team's current problems were discussed.
And whilst he continues to count upon the board's support - in public, at least - Allardyce will be well aware that time is against him should he wish to fulfil his dream to lead West Ham into the Olympic Stadium three years from now.
