This is a biography of one of West Ham United's greatest ever
players, and the history of the club during his time in claret and
blue. During those dozen years, Len Goulden had a glittering
career, and became an England star. He scored the final goal in the
defeat of Germany in May 1938; the game being made infamous by the
England players being obliged to give the Hitler salute prior to
the kick-off. West Ham goal-keeping legend Ernie Gregory, who
watched Goulden from the stands of Upton Park before signing for
the club in 1936 claimed that: "We've had some great forwards over
the years at West Ham but Len was the greatest-the daddy of them
all. He was the one I paid my money to see...I can still see Len
now-controlling the ball, he killed it instantly...Len was the
tops." 'Golden Len Goulden' plucks from history a player who ranks
with the best ever to wear the hammers over his heart.
