Welcome to West Ham Wiki, the comprehensive directory of everything West Ham United.

Here you can find up-to-date information, statistics and records from West Ham United's entire history, including calendar years, seasons, fixtures, results, records, players, managers and loads more!

How To Use West Ham Wiki

We're working on populating West Ham Wiki with 130 years of club history, which I'm sure you can understand is going to take a very long time.

We plan to work backwards, starting from present day and populating history as we go. This will understandably take time, so please be patient while we work on creating the most comprehensive record of West Ham United on the internet.

In the meantime, there's another pretty popular Wiki on the internet you can use to find what you need in the meantime. Just make sure you keep returning to us!

To get started, simply click on the links below to find what you're looking for. Available pages will be highlighted in blue. Any pages highlighted in red are not yet available but are on our long list of pages to create and populate.

Want to get involved?

We'd love some help so if you're interested in joining the team and getting involved in such a large project, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

Such a large project also requires detail and accuracy. We don't just want to recreate whats already out there but also provide a hub of information that people can use as their one-stop-shop for anything and everything West Ham United.

This will require daily updates as well as creating a historical backlog.

Here's what we're looking for in contributors and volunteers...

Extensive knowledge of West Ham United
A passion for keeping a record of West Ham United history
Strong research skills
Strong attention to detail
Strong writing skills
Some technical know-how is preferred but not essential
