West Ham recently posted some pictures of the club’s FA Cup Final win on the 3rd May 1975, and a lot of the fanbase and loving the throwback photos.
It was a terrific day for all associated with the club as they lifted the FA Cup for the second time in their history at Wembley, via West Ham.

The Hammers did not just beat Fulham 2-0 thanks to Alan Taylor’s two second-half goals but also defeated Claret and Blue legend Bobby Moore at the stadium where he had forged so many unforgettable memories for club and country.
They actually managed to win the cup again five years later, per Transfermarkt, but since then the only silverware they have managed to pick up was in the Championship playoffs.
Fans will be hoping for cup winning days to return soon, but for now they are in a very different situation, as they were knocked out in the third round of the FA Cup this campaign and are in an ongoing relegation battle in England’s top flight, via BBC Sport.
Here is what fans had to say following the tweet:
