A Pictorial History
1932-33 Football League Second Division
Manager: Syd King / Charlie Paynter
Starting life in the Second Division, the Hammers struggled as Bradford City won 4–2 at the Boleyn Ground, and in the return a week later the Yorkshire side won 5–1. A good 3–0 victory at home against old rivals Millwall was welcome, but this was soon followed by a 6–0 defeat at Lincoln City. The home faithful were then treated to five successive home wins where the team scored 24 goals. There were hat-tricks for Fred Norris against Oldham and for Vic Watson against Burnley. After Grimsby Town were beaten 5–2 there was an excellent 7–3 home win over neighbours Charlton Athletic.
The long-serving manager, Syd King, had been warned several times over his drink-related conduct and following an emergency board meeting in November 1932 he was suspended for three months. In January 1933 he was informed that his contract had been terminated. Days later he drank a cocktail of alcohol and disinfectant, and he passed away on 12 January in St Mary’s hospital, Plaistow. He had been at the club since the Thames Ironworks days, playing as full-back until April 1903. He was replaced by club trainer Charlie Paynter.
Throughout December there was only one defeat in seven games and it was hoped that this fine form would continue into the New Year. Non-league Corinthians were beaten 2–0 in the FA Cup and this brought a home tie against West Bromwich Albion. West Brom lay seventh in the First Division but the Hammers beat them 2–0. A fifth-round tie with Brighton was the reward, but a week before that West Ham were beaten 6–1 at Bury. The Brighton tie attracted a record crowd of 32,310 to the Goldstone Ground. In an exciting tie the teams drew 2–2 and the Hammers won the resultant replay by 1–0. Forgetting about their lowly league position they brushed aside Birmingham City in the quarter-final as they won 4–0 at the Boleyn Ground. The semi-final was against Everton at Wolverhampton’s Molineux ground. The teams were drawing 1–1 with seven minutes remaining when Everton grabbed the winner.
League form was still poor and by Good Friday, after a 1–0 defeat at Chesterfield, the team were bottom of the league. After that, though, four successive games were won and relegation was narrowly avoided. They had enjoyed an exciting FA Cup journey but by finishing in 20th place the team had almost been relegated to the Third Division.

What perhaps was the most outstanding feature of this game was the work of the Swansea forward line; Martin came into the centre-forward position in place of Pearce, who had been transferred to Charlton, and he led the line with considerable skill and thrust and his goal was the outcome of swift opportunism.
That was the only score of the day and upon it rested the result of the match. Lewis, who figured at outside-left for Swansea, had pulled a muscle in the trial match and, although he was well enough to turn out, it was clear that he was not able to give of his best. However, he proved an important unit in the Swansea attack and with Molloy was a continual source of worry to the West Ham defence.
West Hum did not come up to expectations, and it is very likely that the rearrangement of the forward line played an important part in reducing the effectiveness of the side. Collins, Barrett and Musgrave were a capable middle line, but under pressure Chalkley seemed unable to stem the Swansea attack.
Earl, however, was always very safe and got through a great deal of work in checking the activities of the Lewis-Molloy flank. The match left the impression that both sides have very considerable possibilities.

A stroke of bad luck early in the second half led to the big defeat of West Ham United at Valley Parade. Five minutes after the change of ends Barkas, the City's left full-back, kicked the ball towards goal from the half-way line. It looked as though Dixon thought that he had come out too far, for he made a quick turn, fell and twisted his knee, the ball bouncing over him into the net
Dixon was forced to retire and Earl took his place in goal. Although he gave a creditable display, saving many good shots, the City were on top from this time.
Early in the game the home forwards pressed hotly and Alexander scored after Dixon had failed to collect a header by Peel. West Ham eventually got into their stride and by clever open passing gave the home defence a trying time. The score was equalised by the best goal of the game, Ruffell raced away and made a perfect centre, which was cleverly headed through by Watson.
Bradford regained the lead with a header by Peel in the last minute of the first half and five minutes after the interval came the incident which led to Barkas scoring. Further goals were obtained by Webster and Watmough.
The methodical, long passes of the West Ham forwards in the first half, and the raids of Ruffell and Yews were much admired by the crowd. The City also had a clever forward line.

Following the heavy defeat at Lincoln, Hammers planned mass changes for the visit of Oldham Athletic. Puddefoot, Barrett and Ruffell are among those dropped to make way for seven reserves. A change of fortune with a 5-2 win over Oldham seemed to justify the changes but the press still wasn't satisfied. "Not good enough" said 'Athenian' of the 'News Chronicle'.

REPORT:
Syd King suspended until further notice
On 5 November 1932 West Ham lost their ninth game of the season, against Bradford Park Avenue, and at the same day's board meeting, according to one board member, "during the discussion on the team, (King) was "drunk and insubordinate." It was no secret that King "liked a drink", but he had already been appeased by the board many times over the issue. On the following day the board announced that: "It was unanimously decided that until further notice C. Paynter be given sole control of players and that E. S. King be notified accordingly."
Charlie Paynter given sole control of players
Paynter first became involved with West Ham United in 1897 as unpaid help. In the 1900-01 season Paynter joined the club as a player although he never played for the first-team. He sustained a knee injury in a match against Woolwich Arsenal which ended his career and the club appointed him reserve-team trainer in 1902. He was then promoted to first-team trainer, replacing Syd King, who was appointed first team manager.

Puddefoot scored within a minute and could have been 3-up before half-time. Instead, Hammond equalised on 30 minutes from Richards pass. And 15 minutes from time Hammond gave the home side the lead. Wrightson and Barrett added further home scores before Vic Watson made it two for the away team. Despite the flurry of late scoring it was not an exciting 'local derby'. The game was played from start to finish in a heavy mist.

In a game that never lacked interest, the superior craftsmanship of West Ham became the dominating factor. It brought them a comfortable victory. They were easily the masters of the amateurs in ball control, and their passing was neater and more effective. In the first half the Corinthians played good, open football, but the inside forwards nullified much of the clever work of Hegan and Cooler by bad positioning. Grant, the goalkeeper, was the outstanding amateur; he saved in brilliant style from Watson. Wilson, and Pollard.
West Ham took a long time to settle down, but once they had put their short passing scheme into working order it became obvious that success would not be too long delayed. Although they had to wait until after the interval before they obtained a goal, their mastery was complete. Vic Watson did not have an easy passage because Whewell, the amateurs' pivot, was effective in his spoiling tactics.
The Corinthian halves were all good workers, and much better use should have been made of the ball by the forwards. The most prominent men in the West Ham attack were Pollard and Wilson. The halves did not have a difficult task, and in the second half they easily stopped the poor efforts of the Corinthians to force their way through.
The best of the game was seen in the first 45 minutes, for the football was good and clean. Hegan missed a couple of chances and once Chalkley headed away a clever shot of Ashton's. West Ham rather overdid their short passing, but there was decidedly more fire in their shooting. The second half soon showed that the Corinthians had shot their bolt. West Ham did practically as they liked.
Watson scored the first goal ten minutes after the restart. Ashton once raised the hopes of the Corinthian supporters when he dribbled his way through from a pass by Webster, but be put in a very weak shot. Wilson was always a source of danger to the amateurs' backs. Pollard scored the second goal. The experience and skill of West Ham was far beyond the scope of the Corinthians, and the Hammers certainly enter the next round on merit.

Bury ran through the Hammers' defence almost at will. Four goals in half an hour was their reward and these had to be added to two goals in the first half. Bury have been searching for a centre-forward to add thrust to their attack, and, on the display, by Vernon in that position they need look no further. Obviously there was nothing wrong with the home attack. The inclusion of Chalmers at inside-right was a move which led to the improvement of the line. He was at his best, and, with all his four colleagues responding, they made light of the United defence. Bury were well served in every line. Chesters and Bullock were particularly good, and only on few occasions did the visiting forwards trouble the Bury defence. Their halves were at a loss how to combat with the fast movements of the home forwards. On the Hammers' side a tremendous amount of work fell to Chalkley and Walker, the former being outstanding. Watson, in goal, was inconsistent. Robbie and Chalmers scored for Bury In the first half, and in the second half Barrett put through his own goal. Chalmers, and Amos scored again for Bury. In the closing minute Harrison, the Bury goalkeeper fouled Morton and Barrett got a consolation goal for the Hammers from the spot kick.

Pre-match news was sensational, insofar that on the previous Saturday Jimmy Barrett (snr.) and George Watson (reputed to be the first West Ham United player to own a motor car) had been involved in an accident whilst returning from a postponed League match at Oldham on 25 February. Watson had 20 stitches in a head wound and several in the throat. He was making good progress in St Barts Hospital. Jimmy Barret escaped unscathed and was passed fit to play, but goalkeeper George was ruled out. So the job 'between the sticks' for Hammers fell to Patrick McMahon who is only 20 to make his First Team debut after the youngster was signed from Scottish junior club St. Anthony's just four months previously.
The Midlanders then went under the nickname of The Heathens' (from their origins as Small Heath Alliance). However, they belied that title insofar that in the following match-programme the scribe made particular mention that 'both sides were sportsmen in the extreme and gave of their best, and the whole 90 minutes was under perfect control'.
Birmingham put our team under considerable pressure in the early stages, but McMahon proved extremely confident and made some good saves. His counterpart - Harry Hibbs - was the current England 'keeper (eventually to gain 24 full caps), but he was powerless to prevent Arthur Wilson, Jack Morton and Wally Pollard putting the ball past him; Hibbs was knocked out whilst endeavouring to prevent Morton scoring, and his unhappy afternoon was sealed when a fellow-defender diverted the ball into his own net to make the final score-line four- nil in our favour.
Another paragraph from our report: 'As for the crowd - a record by over 4,000 - they were splendid. Through their sportsmanship we were able to avoid the unpleasantness of shutting out thousands of enthusiastic spectators, and their sporting attitude to both sides contributed in the greatest measure to one of the finest afternoon's sport possible.'
The official attendance was given as 44,232; but the calculation was later discovered to be incorrect, as the 4,000 mentioned above was the then 'population' of the 'Chicken Run'. Admission to that favourite spot was by means of extra payment through turnstiles at each end. The 4,000 got counted twice, but even so there were over 40,000 in the Boleyn Ground

West Ham advanced a stage in their fight against relegation by beating Bradford 2-1 at Upton Park, the two points thus obtained putting them five places from the foot of the table. With one change from their Cup side - Yews for Pollard - they had a large share of the game, and, except for a brief period in the second half, their defence was seldom troubled. It was during this spell that Robertson, outside right, scored for Bradford to neutralise the goal scored by Watson shortly before half-time from a pass by Morton. However, West Ham were not to be baulked of victory. Wood, playing at inside right, shot for goal, and, although his effort was intercepted, Watson was at hand to put the ball into the net. The score hardly represents the superiority of West Ham. The team played excellently together and the Bradford defence was often hard pressed. Watson and Morton were particularly prominent in the attack, but time and again their efforts were foiled by Hawthorn, a goalkeeper obtained from the Scottish club Alloa.

Although gaining valuable point each as the result of a goalless draw at Upton Park. West Ham United and Lincoln City have not actually improved their positions in the table. Lincoln City fully deserved a point, if only for the sound defence in which Buckley, the right back, and Dodgln, right half, subdued Victor Watson. West Ham, too, were more impressive in defence than attack, Chalkley, at right back, and Barrett, centre half, intercepting when scores seemed imminent, Pollard and Wilson, the West Ham inside forwards, made the mistake of almost continually putting the ball either to the well marked Watson or the wingers when a dribble on their own might have produced better results. White was responsible for Lincoln’s best efforts, but his tremendous shot late the game was finely saved McMahon.

West Ham overcame a very good side in Nottingham Forest at Upton Park by 4-3. They did so mainly by reason of the fine all-round form shown after change of ends, when accurate ball control and first-time passing exposed such a weakness in the Forest defence that three goals were scored in twenty minutes. Nothing was more interesting to watch than the clever footwork of Goulden, who played at inside left for West Ham, and the defensive skill of Graham T., the Nottingham Forest pivot. Goulden also combined excellent shooting ability with his smart control of the ball, and he and Victor Watson caused the visitors more trouble than anyone else. Graham J. headed a goal after seven minutes for the Forest, but Goulden equalised from twenty yards. Masters put the Forest ahead before half-time, but goals by Morton, Barrett a penalty, and Wood put West Ham well ahead before McKinley scored the third Forest goal.
