'Ginger' Williams. He was at Blues for less than a year but scored 3 goals in 12 games in the 1908-09 season. Lest We Forget #BCFC

Main image is from Guy Russell (far right of the photo) during a training session in 1984. As was the case back then, old kits were used as training gear, including the red ‘double-penguin’ away shirt worn between 1974-76. We have NEVER seen one. Are there any still out there?

NEW ARRIVAL Away shirt from 2011-12. Except it wasn’t. The club never wore it, preferring the yellow ‘Europa’ third shirt instead. Chris Hughton wasn’t a fan & it was deemed too similar to the home shirt. The excellent John Devlin comments here dailymail.co.uk/sport/football…

Almost illegible now, but here's my ticket for Albion v Blues for 21 March 2020. Cancelled the day before due to Covid & eventually played on this day 5 years ago. Our first League game in June; first 'closed doors' & first sight of the NHS patch. Crazy days! #BCFC #KRO #WBA

I can't believe how little effort has gone into that Blues top. It's just a basic template. And it just doesn't go with yellowy/gold. Our colours are blue & white!!! 😄 #BCFC
