What a brilliant write up. Club should reissue some of that or loft certain passages for the first programme back when football restarts. Loved it.
Also just reiterated why club ethos is key. 1946 or 2020; the odd bad season, let alone the odd bad game is what in such a grand scheme. The club, the fans, it’s bigger than that. It’s spans time that we, as individuals, don’t.
Support it and be a part of it. Don’t expect something back. |  | |  |

Plus a photo of my dad's favourite player, Cyril Hatton. |  | | |

2-0 to the R's but, by the time the game took place, Clapton Orient had morphed into Leyton Orient. |  | | |

The Club have no intention to pay vastly inflated fees for players of doubtful ability
In the light of recent seasons it almost hurts to read that. This is the first one from 1947/48. Must’ve been a great season. First time we were champions in the football league and our first ever promotion. Rs 3 Canaries 1. Grant Holt scored for Norwich.
