Indeed, it was not until the late 1900’s that the football authorities took some interest in FA Cup Final programmes, having previously stood back while outside publishers “sponsored” matchday issues. A number of 19th century Cup Final programmes were published by “The People” newspaper. Printed locally, these Crystal Palace issues comprised a folded sheet with advertisements on one side, the People being prominent amongst sports outfitters; and team lines and more advertisements on the reverse. They were sold as “The only authorised programme” and so few have survived that they now fetch five-figure sums at auction. Some doubts as to the “only authorised” issue status of these programmes have been raised by the existence of another version of a 1901 Cup Final teamsheet. An “Official Programme” for the Tottenham Hotspur v Sheffield United match, in the shape of a 7” x 5” blue card, has survived. This version is devoid of advertisements, and one wonders if it was purely distributed to VIPs, as opposed to being on public sale. The teamsheet for the 1904 “English Cup Tie” between Manchester City and Bolton Wanderers listed the players in two columns, and numbered them (1 to 22), reintroducing the original concept of a match programme - the identification of players by spectators. Curiously, the reverse side displayed the same names, and numbers, in 2-3-5 formation, along with the note: “Any alteration taking place in the Players’ Names, a board will be sent round the Ground corresponding with numbers on card.” It must have been a particularly large board to be seen by everyone in the 61,300 crowd at the old Crystal Palace ground. When Newcastle United played Bradford City at the Crystal Palace in the 1911 Final, W.H. Smith & Sons issued a “Souvenir Card” priced 1d. Colin Veitch of Newcastle United was photographed on the front cover of this large folded sheet, with the team lines (un-numbered, in 2-3-5 formation) on the inside pages along with advertisements for “The Yorkshire Evening Post Football Edition ; containing full report of the Cup Final, will be on sale to-night at King’s Cross, St Pancras, Marylebone and Euston stations on the departure of special trains for the North.” The refusal of the Football Association to become involved in programme production has not helped in resolving this unofficial/official debate nearly a century later. Similarly, programmes for representative and International fixtures were left to the host club. It was not until the Cup Final moved to Stamford Bridge in 1920 that a single, definitive football programme began to be published for the FA Cup Final.

  • Marlow (BFB Cup)
    HARTLEY WINTNEY FC HISTORY Hartley Wintney Football Club History Hartley Wintney Football Club was founded in the North Hampshire village of Hartley Wintney in 1897 and played in an area adjacent to the village's golf and cricket clubs, the facilities not quite being up to today's standard, with only a horse trough or the pond to remove the heavy mud from a sub-standard pitch. The Club's nickname of 'The Row' comes from 'Hartley Row', a former hamlet within Hartley Wintney. In 1953, the club moved to its present ground in Green Lane, known as 'The Memorial Ground'. A pavilion was erected and the team played in the Basingstoke League and, later, in the Aldershot League. In 1973, an influx of players under new manager Glynn Howell put the club firmly on the local football map. In his six year reign, the team won the Aldershot Senior League three times in succession, and the Aldershot Senior Cup. After several seasons in the Aldershot Senior League, Hartley were admitted to the Combined Counties League (previously Surrey Senior League). After the first couple of seasons and two changes of management, the club appointed Ian Bedford, and once again an influx of senior players brought Hartley success. Within his three years in man- agement, they gained trophies including the League Title (1982-1983) and Runners Up (1981-1982), Aldershot Senior Cup Winners (1980-1981), and George Allen Cup Win- ners (1981-1982). They were also Runners Up in the League Cup (1982-1983) and Al- dershot Senior Cup (1981-1982).

The programme of events for2017 remains to be finalised. Keep your eye on the website for updates. In This edition: What’s In A Window? No 5: The Martyr’s Window by Burne-Jones Page 2 Our Footballing Hero (Charles Coleridge Mackarness ) by Mike Baines page 12 George Frederick Bodley – Early Commission page 14 What’s in a Window? No 5 The Martyrs’ Window by Burne-Jones Sir Edward Burne-Jones 1833 - 1898 (See the window on our website at: http://www.friendsofstmartins.co.uk/Window14.html) This is one of two windows along the South Aisle that were commissioned by Miss Mary Craven to thank God for the recovery of Queen Victoria's eldest son and heir to the throne, Edward, the Prince of Wales. (See Newsletter 5 for the full story). There’s a lot more than meets the eye to this window, especially in its somewhat controversial catholic symbolism which is reflected throughout the church. The three martyrs are from left to right: St. Peter, St. Stephen and St Paul. Burne-Jones may have chosen these three specifically because of their interrelationship. St. Stephen was the first Christian martyr, and his death by stoning was witnessed by St.

  • Guide to Paddington Old Cemetery
    A Brief History and Background to the Site and Burials at Paddington Old Cemetery by Kevin Barret December 2018 Background The public cemetery as distinct from the churchyard, as a proper place for burial, originated in the Victorian period. Under common law, every parishioner and inhabitant of a parish had a right to be buried in his or her parish churchyard or burial ground. There were few exceptions to this right of Christian burial. An Act of 1823 put an end to the practice of burying suicides in some public highway with a stake driven through them and directed that they be buried in the churchyard, but between 9 p.m. and midnight, and without rites of the Church. Compulsory dissection of murderers' bodies was not abolished until 1832, and hanging in chains lingered on until 1834 By 1850 most London churchyards were so overcrowded that they posed a severe health risk to those people working or living nearby. Thousands of bodies were buried in shallow pits beneath the floorboards of chapels and schools. Congregations and pupils had to beathe the foul-smelling air which resulted. The comparatively small number of gravestones in a churchyard can belie the number of bodies buried. The churchyard of St Martin-in-the-Fields was only 200 feet (60 metres) square yet, in the early 1840's, was estimated to contain the remains of between sixty and seventy thousand persons. In the past burial used to be in shared plots during medieval times. Victorians in the 19th century decided to give importance to how we treated the dead.
