Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

It's the final day of the 2014-15 season and whilst it was all settled at the top, two teams in the North East were fighting to avoid the drop.

On an absolutely massive day for both Newcastle United and Hull City, it was the latter who joined Burnley and Queens Park Rangers in the Championship next season.

Then, as soon as the final whistle went - Sam Allardyce was sacked by West Ham.

  • West Ham announce Sam Allardyce contract won't be renewed
  • Newcastle beat West Ham 2-0
  • Moussa Sissoko and Jonas Gutierrez get the goals for the Magpies
  • Hull draw 0-0 with Manchester United
  • Steve Bruce's side had to win to have any chance
  • Elsewhere, Liverpool were beaten 6-1 by Stoke
  • Steven Gerrard did manage to score in his final game
  • Theo Walcott scored hat-trick for Arsenal in 4-1 win over West Brom
  • Chelsea win 3-1 - Didier Drogba carried off by team-mates in final game
