ricardo 7,385 Posted September 24, 2014 That tram is going down Dereham Rd, St Andrews, Bank Plain and then turning into Prince of Wales Rd. You can recognise the Agricultural Hall (which is now Anglia TV) and the Old GPO, also now part of Anglia TV I think.And No, the little boy standing in the road on the left isn''t me, or even my dad, although it could have been my uncle Eddie.[;)]Great pic''s C1.[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 7,385 Posted September 24, 2014 The next bit with all the cavalry is looking up Upper King St from P.of Wales Rd.Also there is a bit with I presume King Edward 7th at the old tram terminus at Orford Place.Towards the end we have the funeral of Edith Cavell and the unvieling of the First World War memorial at the Guildhall.How did I do?

Bill 1,788 Posted September 24, 2014 that''s what I thought,until I did a bit of checking I even found more footage clickand if you compare what is supposedly Rosary Road with the two pictures, you will see the Leicester pic has the same chimneys that are missing from the Nest pic stop frame at .5.42 the game is listed as being against Leicester which was an away gamethe second footage lists it as Jan 1913 and we played Leicester in Jan 1913and the ad lists Boulevard which is a part of Leicesterelementary, my dear What''s on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crabbycanary 2 Posted September 25, 2014 Loved the footage C1.Is there anything in ''left'' handshakes, before the game, between the ref and captains, or is the film back to front?Also that''s how fans used to march to the ground (5.48), much more organized, and easier for the police to keep an eye on the ruffians and herberts!

Buh 0 Posted September 25, 2014 Fantastic footage. Although I believe some of our fan would love football to be like this again with Charles-Charlie-Charles bombing down the wing and a half time show of a man boxing a kangaroo which worries me slightly haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Molly Windley 76 Posted September 25, 2014 Looking on SUTRE this would appear to be the replay after the first game was abandoned at 0-0 due to snow.The first meeting between the two clubs took place on the 11th of January 1913 in a First Round FA Cup tie - but the game didn''t reach it''s finish. Starting in poor conditions, there was a dreadful snow storm on 65 minutes. The score was still 0-0 and the referee abandoned the game. On the 16th, the Canaries returned. Despite still being a Southern League side in those days, they thrashed their Second Division opponents 4-1, goals coming from Arthur Woodlands, Sam Wolstenholme, Alfred Osborne and William Hughes. It was one of a number of cup shocks that Norwich City handed out before the Great War. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Play was hampered by snow, but the inclement weather did not stop Norwich from emerging with a 4-0 victory against Leicester. Goals were scored by Osbourne, Hughes, Woodlands and Wolstenhulme. Norwich’s success did not last long, however. The team were knocked out of the F.A. Cup in the next round, with the Bristol Rovers beating them after a second reply. - See more at: http://www.archivealive.org/video/index/id/137#sthash.NT1qHvsT.dpufin January 1913, during an F.A.

Bill 1,788 Posted September 25, 2014 Have to presume the team would have travelled there by train - doubt they would have used a charabanc.......... and the kick off would have been 2pm as there were no floodlights thencan''t think that there would have been any City supporters who travelled there eitherit has to be wondered if any of those players were to be killed in the upcoming warone City goalscorer was Sam Wolstenholme, who -After retiring as a player in 1913, Wolstenholme accepted a coaching position in Germany. In the spring of 1914, he was appointed by the Norddeutscher Fußball-Verband (North German Football Association) as team coach/manager of their representative XI. However while there, the First World War broke out and he was subsequently interned at Ruhleben, a civilian detention camp near Berlin. The camp contained between 4,000 and 5,500 prisoners. Gradually a mini-society evolved and football became a popular activity. Wolstenholme was one of several former professional footballers in the camp. Others included fellow former England internationals, Fred Spiksley, Fred Pentland and Steve Bloomer, a German international Edwin Dutton and two fellow former Evertonians, John Cameron and John Brearley.
