Slaven Bilic: West Ham stadium move not behind poor form

West Ham's stadium move is not behind their poor start to the Premier League season, Slaven Bilic has said.

Just one win in seven matches has left the Hammers in the bottom three and their move to the former Olympic Stadium has been blighted by crowd trouble and complaints from unhappy fans, but Bilic doesn't want to use that as an excuse.

"Make no mistake, we would rather play at home because there we feel the 60,000 people," Bilic said when asked if he was happy at the prospect of a game away from home.
