West Ham manager Alan Curbishley:
"I would have been delighted if we had taken a battling point. Once we scored we seem to back off.
"Then we lost one player after another after another and we were reduced to 10 men.
"The injury situation is chronic now.
"We have to regroup now but I can't tell you who I've got fit and available. Our injury situation has got worse."
