West Ham unveil new team photo... so, how many people does it take to run a Premier League club (and what do they ALL do)?
- West Ham's players, coaches, staff and board members posed for the team photo
- There were 268 of the club's employees present for the picture at Upton Park
- Sportsmail was granted exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the photo
- West Ham are set to move into the Olympic Stadium for the 2016-17 season
When they first arrived at the Boleyn Ground 111 years ago, West Ham's staff would probably have been no more than a few dozen.
Now, with the club about to move to the Olympic Stadium, there are a few more!
Sportsmail photographed 268 of the club's employees for an exclusive picture to mark their last season at Upton Park and show the numbers needed to run a modern day Premier League club.
West Ham's players, coaches, staff and directors pose for the team photo as the club prepares to leave Upton Park at the end of the season
Sportsmail was granted exclusive behind-the-scenes access to West Ham's team photo with 268 of the club's employees
