After 9 seasons on the highest level they relegated to the second division. In 1958 West Ham promoted back to the first division.

  5. I'm dreaming dreams I'm scheming schemes I'm building castles high They're born anew Their days are few Just like a sweet butterfly And as the daylight is dawning They come again in the morning I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air They fly so high Nearly reach the sky Then like my dreams they fade and die Fortune's always hiding I've looked everywhere I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air. When shadows creep When I'm asleep To lands of hope I stray Then at daybreak When I awake My bluebird flutters away Happiness you seem so near me Happiness come forth and cheers me I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air They fly so high Nearly reach the sky Then like my dreams they fade and die Fortune's always hiding I've looked everywhere I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air Lyrics/Music : Jaan Kenbrovin/John William Kellette

  6. Fight Song • I'm forever blowing bubbles,Pretty bubbles in the airThey fly so high, nearly reach the skyAnd like my dreams they fade and dieFortune's always hiding,I've looked everywhereI'm forever blowing bubbles,Pretty bubbles in the airUnited! (clap hands) united! (clap hands)
