Two organised demonstrations took place before West Ham’s 2-1 home defeat by Crystal Palace on 20 September, with 3,000 fans marching before Graham Potter’s final game as manager.
In October, there were banks of empty seats in the London Stadium as fans boycotted Nuno Espirito Santo’s first home game in charge. The Hammers lost 2-0 to Brentford to lose a fifth home league defeat in succession for the first time since 1931.
A number of supporters also staged a sit-in protest on 2 November after the 3-1 Premier League victory over Newcastle United.
West Ham go into Saturday’s game 18th in the Premier League, having taken just seven points from their first 10 games. Should they finish in that position, they would return to the Championship for the first time since the 2011-12 season.
Supporter Holly Turbutt, from West Ham Network, says the protests are a result of a “multitude of issues” at the club, including poor performances.
