The Legacy

John Lyall led West Ham United to third place in the First Division in 1985-1986. This was the club's highest league finish, trailing champions Liverpool by four points. The partnership of Tony Cottee and Frank McAvennie provided the attacking threat, while Alan Devonshire pulled the strings in midfield. Billy Bonds remained a central figure in a team that challenged for the title until the final week. Sporting the Adidas design with the Avco sponsor, this home shirt identifies the most successful league campaign in West Ham history.

Key Moment

West Ham United finished 3rd in the 1985-1986 First Division, driven by the prolific goalscoring partnership of Tony Cottee and Frank McAvennie.
