West Ham United F.C
West Ham United Football Club is an English football club based in Upton Park, London Borough of Newham, East London, and have played their home matches at the 35,303 capacity Boleyn Ground stadium since 1904.
The club was originally founded as Thames Ironworks F.C. in 1895 and later reformed, in 1900, as their current incarnation. They initially competed in the Southern League and Western League before joining the full Football League in 1919 and enjoyed their first top flight season in 1923, also featuring in the first FA Cup Final to be held at Wembley. The club, who have spent their entire league career in the top two divisions, have been FA Cup winners three times: in 1964, 1975 and 1980. In 1965, they won the Cup Winners Cup (now defunct), and in 1999 they won the Intertoto Cup. They also won the first War Cup in 1940. The club's best final league position is third place in the 1985-86 (old) First Division. West Ham currently holds the dubious distinction of being the only team to breach the 40 point boundary in a 38-game Premier League season and still be relegated (in 2003).[3]
They currently compete in the Premier League, after finishing in 10th position in the 2007-08 season.[4] The club's current manager is Alan Curbishley who was appointed on 13 December 2006[5]; the club's current captain is Australian Lucas Neill.
