West Ham United's Success in the 1960S Is Due 1960s - The Glory Years West Ham United’s success in the 1960s is due to for- mer player and manager Ted Fenton. By 1958 the Club was at the top level of English football. “Past the Boleyn on the corner, turn left, it was just a few shops down…you had a, the cafe on the corner where people like Malcolm Allison - he was a big men- tor for Bobby Moore…. I obviously didn’t intrude but I’d sit as near as I could just to look at them not…in awe just to think, ‘Oh that’s my idol sitting over there and I’m in the same room as them.’ So that…I think there was a lot of tactical stuff talked by the first team squad in that cafeteria.” Michael (b. 1946, fan) Bobby Moore played for the club throughout the 60s Ron Greenwood took charge of the club in 1961: “Ron Greenwood was a very, very forward thinking manager and he excelled on tactics, and if you like continual training regimes and coaching and he en- couraged all the apprentices and young players to do coaching, because he thought, quite rightly that it made you think about your game….so I mean, he, he used to like to play the right back on the right wing, or the centre forward of the centre half, and, and you Ron Greenwood would realise the, the differences between the two positions, so, that was all part of your education as you were growing up” Robert (b. 1948, fan) With young local talent on the pitch - Geoff Hurst, Martin Peters, Ronnie Boyce and Bobby Moore - the first taste of success came winning the 1964 FA Cup in a 3-2 win over Preston North End. In 1966 Bobby Moore lifted the World Cup as Eng- land won 4-2 against West Germany. This was seen as much a West Ham United win as it was for Eng- land. “And then of course…West Ham fans’ll tell you it wasn’t England that won the World Cup in 1966 it was West Ham because Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst, Martin Peters, three players from West Ham at that time were in the England side, ” John (West Ham Historian) Victory for West Ham in 1964 An Eastside Community Heritage exhibition.

  • George Cohen's 1966 World Cup Final Shirt Leads Christie's Summer Sale of Sporting Memorabilia
    For Immediate Release Tuesday, 16 May 2006 Contact: Matthew Paton 020 7389 2965 [email protected] GEORGE COHEN’S 1966 WORLD CUP FINAL SHIRT LEADS CHRISTIE’S SUMMER SALE OF SPORTING MEMORABILIA Traditional Sports and World Cup Memorabilia 27 June 2006, South Kensington South Kensington – Christie’s announce that the shirt worn by George Cohen during the World Cup Final of 1966 will lead the sale of Traditional Sports and World Cup Memorabilia on 27 June 2006. A rare relic from English football’s finest hour, Cohen swapped the shirt with Lothar Emmerich, a winger in the defeated West German team, in whose family possession it has remained to this day. It is expected to realise £15,000-20,000. The summer sale will also include approximately 200 items of cricket, boxing, tennis and golf memorabilia, including the Renshaw Cup won by Fred Perry at Wimbledon in 1936, the last time a British player won the singles title (estimate: £25,000-£30,000). George Cohen (b. London, 1939) won thirty seven caps for England between 1964 and 1967 and played in all six of England’s matches in the 1966 FIFA World Cup Tournament. He spent his entire playing career at Fulham and made 459 appearances for the London side before retiring through injury at the age of twenty nine. Described by George Best as ‘the best full back I ever played against’, Cohen was one of five players from the England team of 1966 to receive an MBE in 2000. His 1966 World Cup final shirt has been in German possession for forty years, having been swapped with Lothar Emmerich at the end of the match.
