West Ham United joint chairmen David Sullivan and David Gold have promised to turn the club’s faltering season around.
The Irons have started the season with just one win to accompany five defeats and have been left to occupy an early place in the drop zone with Stoke City and Sunderland.
A 3-0 home loss against Southampton saw the Hammers reach a new low, prompting directors Sullivan and Gold to reassure supporters.
“There is no question that this has not been the start to the season that we were looking for but rest assured we are doing everything we can to fix the situation,” a statement read on the club’s website.
“The facts are there for everyone to see. We know we are letting in too many goals and not scoring enough, but be assured we will sort the problems out.
“There have been factors which have contributed to the poor start with injuries to key players and some key decisions which have gone against us.
