West Ham United Manager
West Ham’s current manager is Italian Gianfranco Zola, who won great acclaim in English football as an attacking midfielder and forward for Chelsea in years previous. Zola was well known for his aggressive, dedicated offensive play and his creativity and technical prowess with the ball. He became West Ham’s manager at the beginning of the past season(08-09) and his positive effects became quickly evident, with a focus on creative passing, quick-thinking tactical play and positive, attack-heavy football showing through and bringing new life to a famous and storied team.
In 1898 Thames Ironworks FC became a professional team, joining the old Southern League’s second division, and ascending to first division shortly thereafter. Due to internal problems the team disbanded, but reformed as West Ham United in July of 1900.
The team’s traditional colours are claret(a deep red) and light blue, the latter usually on the sleeves. The current season’s home kit features a check pattern on the shirt and blue trim rather than full sleeves for a change of pace(which helps also to differentiate their shirts from the nearly identical kit of Aston Villa), and the away shirt is a dark blue with a light blue stripe, a reference to the all-dark blue kit that was the original shirt worn by the team.
The club was formed originally in 1895 by the workers of Thames Ironworks under its original name, Thames Ironworks FC. The team remained an amateur group for the next few years, achieving considerable success. They won the first West Ham Charity Cup in 1895, a tournament of local teams, and the London League in 1897.
West Ham played in the new Division 1 during the Premiership’s inaugural season in 1992-93, finished in second and was promoted to the Premier League for the following season, where it has remained with the exception of the ’03-’04 season.
West Ham United Stadium
The Hammers play at the Boleyn Ground, more commonly called Upton Park after the area of East London in which it is located. The stadium has been their home since 1912, when the team established themselves at the grounds of the old Green Street House, which was known also as Boleyn Castle due to its size and association with Anne Boleyn. This later became known as the Boleyn Ground. The stadium seats 35,303 at top capacity and is arranged in the familiar rectangular design of English football grounds, with tiered seating sections outlining the field at right angles to one another. The second world war had its effects shown in East London when a German V-1 rocket struck the stadium in August of 1944, fortunately while the park was unoccupied. The team played all of its games away until December when its repairs were completed.
West Ham’s youth system is also well-renowned and has brought a number of prominent British players to light, resulting in the other descriptive nickname for the club, The Academy of Football.
In honor of its origins as a group of iron workers the team is referred to by the nicknames The Hammers and The Irons, and the club crest is an image of the front of the old ironworks with a pair of crossed hammers in the forefront. The fact that the word ‘hammer’ sounds like ‘ham’ is simply a fortunate coincidence.
West Ham United is an English football club based in the borough of Newham in East London. They currently play in the English Premier League, having finished 9th at the end of the 08/09 season.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Short Summary
Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. Crest
Stan Cullis, himself a former Wanderer, became manager in 1947. For the first time in forty years, the club earned its first major honor with an FA Cup Final victory. Wolverhampton went on to be the top club of the 1950′s, winning titles in 1953-54, 1957-58 and 1958-59.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Manager
Mick McCarthy was brought on as manager of the Wolves in 2006 and has propelled the club to the Premier League.
Wolverhampton is the third club McCarthy has managed. His first was Midwall, where he managed from 1992-1996. McCarthy led the Lions to a third place finish on 1993-94, and though the club was 14 points clear of the relegation zone in 1996, he left the club for the Republic of Ireland manager vacancy.
McCarthy guided Ireland to the 2002 World Cup finals, but a clash with ManU midfielder Roy Keane created bad press. The fallout was enough that McCarthy walked in October of the same year, despite propelling Ireland from a Aworld rank of 54 to as high as 13.
After Ireland, McCarthy managed Sunderland and in three short years took the Black Cats from relegation back to the Premier League. The year in Premiership was tough, and with little money to improve his club, McCarthy was sacked with just 10 games remaining.
Now Mick McCarthy has managed the Wolves to the Premier League and has the tools to stay there, with the signing of current striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake through 2013, as well as signing of Reading star Kevin Doyle.
A once-proud club has made a return to prominence with a new manager and promotion to the Premier League for 2009-10.
The Wanderers are an old club, founded in 1877 by a pair of students attending St. Luke’s school before becoming the Wolverhampton Wanderers two years later. In 1888 the club was one of twelve that formed the English Football League.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Stadium
Molineux Stadium has been home to The Wolves since 1889, when it was rented to the club by a local merchant name Benjamin Molineux. The first league game hosted 4,000 people; fifty-years later the record for attendance was set when 61,315 people watched The Wanderers beat Liverpool 3-1.
The Wolves installed lights in the stadium in 1953, the first club to do so, and that summer Wolverhampton played games against foreign clubs called "floodlight friendlies." Hungary had been embarrassing England in recent World Cup play, so when a Hungarian club visited Molineux for a match under the lights, The Wolves made the most of it and won, prompting manager Stan Cullis to anoint his club "Champions of the World."
In the early 1990′s, Molineux Stadium underwent redevelopment. Neglect and financial difficulties of the previous decade resulted in three sides of the stadium decaying and inaccessible. Today, the grounds have a capacity of 29,000 and there is talk of expanding the stadium to seat 40,000, dependent on the club’s ability to stay in the Premier League.
On 18 April, 2009, The Wanderers were promoted to the Premier League with a 1-0 win against Queens Park and clinched their first divisional title in twenty years the next week.
The most dismal period in the history of the Wolverhampton Wanderers began in the early 1980′s. Serious financial difficulties almost resulted in the club’s extinction. The Wolves endured three consecutive relegation’s, sliding into the lowest tier – an embarrassing first in club history. For nineteen years The Wolves played in the lower tiers, emerging into the Premier League just one season before being relegated.
