The Hammers were outplayed and out-worked by their lesser-known opponents and Pardew is ready to take the criticism.

He told the official site, “This is the worst run of my career both as a manager and as a player.  I hoped that we'd get the lift we needed here at Chesterfield tonight but we've gone home with an even bigger disappointment.  It's definitely not getting any easier.

”I'm certainly not after buying time and I'm not fearful for my job, either, but every manager has to live and die by his results and I'm no exception to that. I'm not immune to anything.

”I just want to win games of football for West Ham United but I'm not doing that and I've got to get it right. I've got to come out fighting and I hope that the players will do that, too.
