Some Norfolk Thursday Cup records….Norwich CEYMS one of the most successful clubs and former Blofield United and ACLE UNITED FC striker Robert Bean topped the scoring charts. There is still time to get a copy of ‘The Midweek Men’ before Xmas.

The research for the Midweek Men discovered the short lived formation of #NCFC in 1893. Why did the club never kick a ball…? copies still available from City Bookshop, Davey Place, Norwich

It’s nearly 25 years since the last Thursday Cup games, but it has a fascinating history. In addition to Carrow Road, finals were played at Trafford Park, The Wellesley, Emerald Park, Gorleston Rec and Plantation Park

Merry Christmas to the local football family and thanks to all who have supported the book in 2024, especially Norfolk County FA who kindly hosted a great reunion of former Thursday footballers at the FDC.
