Hello all
I thought i would use the new photo feature to get some further help regarding this rare photo, some people have already helped. Research has shown that the future Prince of Wales has his arm in a sling dating this to 1921, I had thought that the photo is from 30th April 1921 for the match between clapton orient v notts county. This was to commemorate / respect orients war effort especially for the players who had joined up for the war effort. Game was played at millsfield rd and orient won 3-0. I think it is the notts county team in the photo, other photos i have seen don't show the uke in this suit and overcoat, any thoughts? Many thanks

Perhaps the uke was being played at the half time entertainment so that's why it's not in the picture. Smile

Hi
I have an update on this photo and wonder if any spurs collectors can help?
In February 18th 1924 the Prince of Wales attended a match between spurs and oxford university with his arm in a sling.
Where was the match played?
It would make sense for the oxford players to have their house colours on their socks?
May all be pure speculation but if the game was played in oxford. Would make sense.
Thanks for any help with this.
