Only a friendly but still a good result for their first ever game.

I think this current team could go far. Woolwich League Division One at least.

    Sounded like a proper east end derby.

    Bloody Defence was shocking that day... the Left-Back old Matthew Fox couldnt trap a single flying wing-back whilst the Goalkeeper Nathaniel Pope, how he failed to keep that clean sheet I dont know!!

    Plus how do we stand a chance of winning the Woolwich League Division One with just the single Striker, times aint changed one bit in the 109 years am telling ya

    Rose Tinted Brigade are out.

    We cannot afford to defend like that even if we did have 11 debutants.
  • All well and good in a Saturday friendly but can they do it on a cold wet february night against Pepys United

    Remember it well. Fell off my penny farthing on the way home. Mother called the doctor who wrapped it in vinegar and brown paper then Dad sent me off to my nightshift down the Plumstead salt mines.

    Quality game.

    Love the fact that you've changed George and not Tucudean to make it sound more Britain in 1905.

    Imagine if we hadn't sold Yann, would have been 10-1.

    Great result I was sure it was going to be a comfortable 4-0 home win.

    Arthur Bryan hasn't got a clue.

    It's all very well wandering round with an 'addick on a stick but the queues in the shop were a disgrace!

    Sounded very quiet on the crystal set.....the Siemens Meadow Gold lot got most of the tickets and didn't sing once. To add insult to injury I had a comp from Wally, I set off, but got stuck in the Blackwall Tunnel when a Horse and Cart broke down and had to turn back. Then I found out it was a home game.....

    I know who you are talking about, that goal machine Tuxie Dean

    (nb Tuxie scored 2 in that game despite being -2 years old)
