  1. I was in Norwich today - got dragged into a posh Department Store called Jarrolds - noticed they had a Norwich City area in one corner selling merchandise - looked quite decent , having said that it was empty
  2. For posterity - "Programmes 3 Quid" man - taken in the South 2019 - someone said he had passed away?
  3. #0nThisDay in 1992 - 27,597 fans in Hillsborough created one of the best and most passionate atmosphere's we'd ever experienced at Hillsborough. If we can summon up half of that noise & passion tonight we'll not fail to show whoever's watching that this club and its fans are riches beyond compare. I'm an IDIOT https://youtube.com/watch?v=ia730m4PlWo
  4. A far bit of history there....
  5. In the programme in 1973 Eric Taylor said they had launched the competition to design a new crest because the club was losing considerable amounts of money on counterfeit merchandise as the old badge wasn't copyrighted (which the new one would be) which didn't actually happen as me mum often came back from Castle Market with shoddy imitations
  6. Seems to 1st appear in 1951-2 on the front of programmes !
  7. "Deo adjuvante labor proficit" is a Latin motto meaning "With God's help, our labour is successful". This motto is prominently featured in the coat of arms for the City of Sheffield.
  8. I think the first crest/badge on a shirt was for the 1935 FA Cup final - as recreated by Toffs :
  9. In the 1950s the club used this crest on the programmes - can't see it was used on shirts.
  10. Just for the record the top middle badge was launched in September 1973.
  11. The centenary match & whoever had that one job.......
  12. "Woodhead completed 31 bombing missions during World War 2" - they don't make 'em like him any more !
