The club already have some old framed shirts on display in the newly refurbished boardroom. Particularly a set of home International ones.

This shirt would look good in there among those.


Are there any photos kicking around of the new boardroom? I've only seen photos pre-refurb (if you look closely, you can see the tie once famously 'waggled' by our glorious former leader in that very room, hanging proudly on the wall).

I love to see the packed crowds in our 1936 FAC semi- final.  Even typing that is special.

There are are number of fans breaking into the ground with a 12 foot ladder!  Can you imagine getting ready to go to a match today?  Phone, wallet, beer money, car keys, match ticket and..........12 foot wooden ladder.   Not even a collapsible ladder.

Not that I know of.

It has been plastered out and decorated in a black and white theme. White ceiling and walls, black carpet and woodwork, with new tables and chairs, which again are in a black and white theme.

Looks smart.

Sounds good. Nice work all involved!

Trouble is how many fans get to see in the boardroom, would be nice for them to be displayed for us all to see.



It would be great to have it framed in the club shop or Trust bar. Like you say, something like that needs to be displayed for us all to see.

If won, it would be nice to see someone that was at the game present it to the board.

Les, you available? 😉

Quoted from Poojah
Incidentally, I came across this video a little while ago. Colourised footage of a game between Great Britain and Denmark at the 1912 Olympics, some 109 years ago and a couple of years before the First World War.

Sometimes, when you watch old footage on Pathe, it appears as if the matches bare little resemblance to the game we play today. But with the addition of colour and an adjusted frame rate, it just seems so much more recognisable as football. Maybe just me, but I found it mildly interesting.

https://youtu.be/Zu7ulGcgtaQ

The ground in the video is still recognisable today.

Looks good. That Danish goalie looks a good shotstopper but clearly couldn’t deal with crosses.

I checked the team lists and it seems he was one Morton-Caspar Kijaun or MC Kijaun but known as “James” by his mates.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
