curbs says lay off BOA

West Ham beat Liverpool 1-0 at the Boleyn Ground last night with a last-gasp Mark Noble penalty that saw them consolidate their top ten position.But for manager Alan Curbishley, there was a blot on the evening, and that was the club's fans' treatment of Portuguese winger Luis Boa Morte.The former Arsenal, Southampton and Fulham forward was roundly vilified for missing a golden opportunity to put West Ham ahead when the score was still 0-0."It's happened a couple of times," lamented Curbishley."They need to get behind the players. Luis has been out a month and came back at Manchester City and put everything in."Curbishley felt that Boa Morte gave his all against Liverpool, too, as he continues his return from hamstring trouble.
