Published on Saturday 28 November 2009 19:57

BURNLEY endured another dose of the away-day blues as Owen Coyle's side were hammered at Upton Park.

The Hammers were 3-0 up at the break with goals from Jack Collison, Junior Stanislas and Carlton Cole, the latter with a penalty. Guillermo Franco and Luis Jiminez, again from the spot, made it 5-0 after the hour. West Ham then took their foot off the gas as Steven Fletcher netted twice in seven minutes, and although Steven Caldwell saw red in injury time, Chris Eagles added a third.

Aston Villa 1 Tottenham Hotspur 1

Captain Michael Dawson's first goal of the campaign rescued a deserved point for Tottenham after they had exerted relentless second-half pressure. Gabriel Agbonlahor had given Martin O'Neill's side a half-time lead with his eighth goal of the season.

Manchester City 1 Hull City 1

WITH the return of Robinho after three months out with an ankle injury, City were still unable to end their astonishing run of draws. It is now seven on the bounce for Mark Hughes' side who headed into the break with the lead from Shaun Wright-Phillips. But eight minutes from time Jimmy Bullard made it two in two games with a penalty to maintain the Tigers' resurgence.

Fulham 1 Bolton Wanderers 1

BOLTON remain in the bottom three following a 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage, but at least ended their run of three straight defeats. Ivan Klasnic sent Bolton into the break with the lead, but Fulham put in a barnstorming second-half, with Damien Duff hauling the home side level in the 75th minute.

Blackburn Rovers 0 Stoke City 0

BLACKBURN boss Sam Allardyce, recuperating at home after heart surgery, had to content himself with a point from a goalless draw with Stoke at Ewood Park.

Wigan Athletic 1 Sunderland 0

WIGAN conjured the perfect riposte to their 9-1 humiliation at Spurs last weekend with a 1-0 triumph over former manager Steve Bruce's Sunderland. Hugo Rodallega scored in the 76th minute for his sixth of the season.
