Hero and Villain: West Ham United

Original Date: April 1, 2020

West Ham United had three players on the pitch for the 1966 World Cup Final. Those three players were responsible for all four goals. Bobby Moore captained that team and his 16 years at West Ham United earned him legend status. He's described as a "National Treasure" and "Imperial Defender" on a statue outside of Wembley where he won three different trophies in three successive years. The man was a force and the topic of our hero portion of this episode. 
On the villain end of things, Both outlines the role that ownership has played in the last decade at West Ham: a new stadium, poor results, and pissed off fans. Two adult entertainment moguls, David Gold and David Sullivan, have not covered themselves in glory as local owners. On the cusp of relegation, these two men are villains at West Ham.
