Thames started life in 1928 and finished it very shortly after, Ian. The club was founded by the owners of West Ham stadium, home not to West Ham United but to speedway and greyhounds, who were looking for ways to make some extra cash.<\/p>\n
The club started life in the Southern League, finishing third in their second season and pipping Aldershot to a spot in the Third Division when Merthyr weren’t re-elected. Over the next two seasons Thames played 84 games, won 20, drew 17, and lost 47 – conceding 202 goals along the way. No surprise then that they finished bottom with just 23 points in 1931-32, and promptly resigned from the league. Bad news for Leyton Orient, fellow strugglers hankering after a merger (and cheap rent); good news for Aldershot, who replaced them.<\/p>\n
Thames did set one record in their brief existence however, and it’s one they still hold: the lowest league attendance for a single game. Despite playing home games in a 50,000 capacity stadium, the glut of local sides meant Thames never really cut it on the east London scene. The atmosphere must have been electric on December 6 1930, when Thames beat Luton Town 1-0 in front of a whopping 469 fans.<\/i><\/p>\n
