Hammers Chat

Just a line or two, to say happy birthday to my idol Billy Bonds.
For me personally, the best player ever to wear our colours.

Happy birthday Bill.

Happy birthday Billy.

Bonzo and Mooro - kings amongst all the great Hammers.

Happy birthday to a true legend ⚒

Don’t have many heroes but Bonzo was one of them
Tremendous Captain and leader of men
One of our greatest.

Many happy returns Billy.

Many Happy Returns Bill.


Very few make legend status but you're one of them.

Happy Birthday Big Bill.

Happy Birthday Bonzo!

Greatest legend for us.

Happy birthday Billy. My hero, even though I was around for most of the great Bobby Moore's career. Played as I would have wanted to if I were good enough, all out effort and no little ability. Right back bombing forward, then all-action midfield, then outstanding central defender.

Spot on. My first games were in the early 60's when I used to go with my old man. Around the time Bonzo joined, my dad stopped going as he worked most weekends and I started to go to virtually every home game. I still think his best position was full back and couldn't understand how he never made the England squad, at that time.

Top man, always gave 100% and was totally committed. My favourite player ever, bar none.
