Recommended Posts

Thought it is a good time to remember the West Ham players who were killed in the First World War. Four players were killed in action: Fred Griffiths, William Jones, Frank Cannon and William Kennedy. Two others, George Hilsdon and Fred Harrison were badly gassed. You can read about them here:
