When it wasn't all about money........................
« on: January 26, 2021, 11:03:57 AM »
I thought this piece taken form the Home page was interesting:


"It's been a while since Stockport made their last visit to The Walks. To be precise a mere 108 years, 1 month, and 12 days.
On 14th December 1912 County, a professional Second Division Football League side took on Lynn of the Norfolk & Suffolk League in the fifth qualifying round of the FA Cup.

It was a match that might have been staged at Edgeley Park, Stockport but the Lynn committee declined the offer of £50 plus half of the gate money over £100 to switch the tie".

The supporters are the true voice of football.
