West Ham are being roundly mocked after they were sent tumbling out of the Europa League at the preliminary stage by Astra Giurgiu for the second season running.
Astra managed to register a 1-0 victory at the London Stadium to shore up a 2-1 aggregate victory -- thus condemning Slaven Bilic's side to yet another premature exit, after knocking them out last year too.

Alas, we can't help but feel that the Hammers may have tempted fate ever so slightly by attempting to sell "Prepare for a European Tour" t-shirts long before they'd even qualified for the tournament proper.
