LUKASZ FABIANSKI summed up West Ham's night as he stood and watched Alexander Isak's goal float into the back of the net.
The Hammers hosted Newcastle desperate for three points in their battle against the drop.
Under-pressure David Moyes claimed that the weekend's 1-0 win over Southampton could be "something to build on" for his side.
But West Ham instead pressed the self-destruct button - conceding increasingly calamitous goals as the night went on.

Kurt Zouma's header had given the East Londoners hope going into half-time, coming after Callum Wilson and Joelinton had put the Toon 2-0 up.
But disaster struck within seconds of the restart, when Nayef Aguerd was tackled in his own box to allow Wilson to net Newcastle's third.
With eight minutes remaining, Fabianski came charging out of his goal to try and clear a long punt.
The Pole botched his touch, however, gifting the ball to Isak.
Newcastle's star forward made no mistake, quickly controlling before passing the ball into the unguarded net.
As it floated towards goal, Fabianski and Isak stood next to each other, both with their hands on their hips watching.

We've been given a spanking tonight
David Moyes
After the match, the Scot told the BBC: "I'm really disappointed. We gave away a terrible first and second goal, but not as bad as the third and fourth. That makes it difficult.
"At 2-1 at half-time I'm saying we're right in the game, then 20 seconds later we'd given ourselves a mountain to climb. Anyone can make an individual mistake as a defender but we got two tonight, which was a real shock.
"As manager you always have to front up. I'm a big boy, I've left jobs at other times in the past and if that happens I'll have to go with that.
"But I really like my job here, I've enjoyed my time here greatly and I really hope we've got a couple of big days ahead in the future. But we've been given a spanking tonight."
