West Ham captain Mark Noble was sent off yesterday for a reckless challenge.

Noble’s ill-timed high slide tackle meant that West Ham had to play most of the match with ten men.

The Hammers had a 1-0 lead over Leicester City at the King Power Stadium until that point.

But Noble’s 37th minute red card ensured it was a tough second half for the other 10 players.

West Ham battled bravely with a man down and nearly squeezed out a clean sheet to claim all three points on the road.

However, a late deflected goal from Wilfred Ndidi gave Leicester a share of the spoils.

During and after the game, many West Ham fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Noble.

They felt that the central midfielder had let his team down and ultimately cost West Ham two vital points.

Here are a selection of tweets from West Ham fans discussing Noble’s moment of madness.
