West Ham United have failed to hide a drastic decline in attendance figures for their loss to Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night.
The Hammers are now 10 matches without a win in the Premier League despite taking the lead in the contest against their relegation rivals last time out at the London Stadium.
The Tricky Trees of Forest staged an impressive second-half comeback in East London, where Nicolas Dominguez and Morgan Gibbs-White found the net for Sean Dyche's strugglers.
As a result, Nuno Espirito Santo's men are languishing down in 18th spot in the Premier League standings, seven points from safety.
The crisis-hit club will take a break from top-flight matters to welcome Queens Park Rangers to the London Stadium in the third round of the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon.
West Ham hide real attendances figures for Forest defeat
According to The Guardian, West Ham have failed to be transparent with the real attendance figures for their defeat to Forest on Tuesday night.
The Hammers posted an official attendance of close to 62,000 for the contest in which the hosts were once again sentenced to defeat.
However, it is understood that only around 34,000 people came through the turnstiles on Tuesday night to watch the struggling East Londoners.
It was noted by fans that a large number of seats were available to purchase on the club's official ticket exchange very close to kick off.
West Ham's attempts to lure fans fails
West Ham will be especially disappointed with the attendance figures for Tuesday night, when the team needed all of the support they can gather in the midst of a relegation dogfight.
There were special offers available for the Forest clash, including 30% off tickets in the upper tiers of the London Stadium if purchased before Boxing Day.
It is believed that inclement weather conditions and the considerable amount of home games in recent weeks kept the majority of supporters away earlier in the week.
There is also the main factor of woeful displays on the pitch, with West Ham last tasting success at the London Stadium in early November.
FGG says: Dress rehearsal for next season
Barring a remarkable comeback from West Ham and collapse from either Leeds United or Forest, the London Stadium will be a Championship venue next season.
Attendances of 34,000 would make West Ham one of the best supported sides in the second tier, although it would still represent a severe fall from grace.
A vast number of Hammers faithful are missing the old days at Upton Park, and with the current results, it is hard to blame them for doing so.
