Bobby Moore
Posted by Camavinga on 8/11/2026, 14:51:26
A player from before my time, but an English sporting icon nonetheless.
When he passed early 90’s, as an 18 yo it was not shocking for me, he was just a player from yesteryear (well aware he was a WC winner)
It only occurred to me recently tagt he died young 51, which is my age now. I feel like a puppy, so not old at all and shame to die so young.
I see he never got much recognition about him at West Ham, no stand, no suites or even a job at West Ham for him, despite all he did for them.
He had a troubled time after retirement, cancer, bad business investments and a divorce.
Anyone have any recollections of him playing v Luton or any interesting anecdotes?

I took a team to a clients golf charity event for 10 years in Portugal. They supported a number of different charities over the years but did back to back for the Bobby Moore fund which was run by his widow Stephanie Moore. I got to know her fairly well , she spoke very fondly of him and had a few amusing stories to tell. The golf shirts we wore were in the england red and had number 6 on the back. Raised over £100k each year so decent funding.

She was working at ba at the time and one of the auction prizes were two bus class long haul flights which I bid for and won. Used them to go and watch England play cricket in Cape Town.

I thought Upton Park had a Bobby Moore stand? I was told that a lot of West Ham supporters didn't rate him as he reserved his best performances for England.

Also the number 6 has been retired forever.

I worked on the Bobby stand at Upton Park early 90s. I felt honoured as he was my hero growing up,I was always Booby Moore in the playground. I saw him play twice one at Wembley for England which I unfortunately remember very little about and when he played for Fulham with Best and Marsh.
I remember watching in 1970 world cup he looked like a god back then. What a fantastic player him and Beckenbaur were a league above every other centre back.

Not really an interesting anecdote but I met him at Luton Airport in late 1991 or 1992. He was with 2 journalists who were super arrogant and he was very quiet and unassuming. You wouldn't have known he was someone famous.
The truth is simple. If it was complicated, everyone would understand it.

He died Feb 1991, so he would have been very unwell at the time.

He died on 24 February 1993.

West Ham have named stands after him in two stadiums!

Not during his lifetime. Very much an afterthought.

There is a wonderful invention called the internet where you can look up all sorts of interesting topics. Look up "West Ham Stadium" on it, and you will see there is a stand named "The Bobby Moore Stand.".

I didn’t fill the need to google anything when you trust some random podcast haha
Edit: Just realised the podcast interview of Redknapp I listened to was pre London stadium 🤣
But still many feel he should have had more of an ambassador role at WHUFC.

But as Trevor says. No stand named after him in his lifetime.

Bobby Moore played in the West Ham side at KR for Bob Morton's testimonial. According to an interview in recent years, Harry Redknapp said he was in agony after the game as a result of the cancer. To my recollection, he played the entire game.

My memory of him after being taken match at Wembley we were taken to the The Hilton in the Watford area. For dinner and Bobby Moore made a presentation to some people there and he looked absolutely spent. He passed away a couple of days later I think It was extremely sad to see him in that condition.
