 By Dylan Hill 7:53PM 5 DEC 2010 WEST HAM were cut to 3-4 to be relegated from the Premier League following Sunday's 1-0 defeat at Sunderland.

Manager Avram Grant has taken much of the criticism for West Ham's poor start and the Israeli is 5-4 favourite to be the next top-flight boss to leave his job.

West Brom beat Newcastle 3-1 at the Hawthorns and are now regarded as less likely than the Magpies to suffer an immediate return to the Championship.

The Baggies have drifted to 8-1 for the drop, whereas Newcastle are 7-1.
