A picture speaks volumes and as Newcastle's fourth and fifth goals went in, the television camera focused on David Moyes' gloomy expression with an embarrassing backdrop.
Everywhere he looked, he would see empty seats. 'They're here, they're there, they're every f***ing where… empty seats,' sang Newcastle fans, in between their taunts of 'sacked in the morning' and a few oles as their team passed West Ham off the pitch.
It was symbolic of a fanbase which has given up on their manager. They have had enough of his negative tactics, lack of ambition and continued mediocrity.
