West Ham United manager David Moyes hit out at the Premier League schedule after his side's relegation fears deepened with a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday. West Ham was beaten 2-0 at home by Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday as the Premier League restarted after a three-month shutdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic. “It's a terrible decision from the Premier League and the broadcasters haven't helped either.”The 92 remaining top-flight fixtures are being squeezed into five weeks, with every game live on television because fans cannot attend stadiums. “To be honest, I don't think it's fair for West Ham to come here with 24 hours less to prepare than us. Since Moyes arrived to replace sacked Manuel Pellegrini, West Ham has won just two of 12 Premier League games, and with Chelsea to play next, it is in desperate trouble.
