EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative group photograph captures the Millwall Athletic football team in the 1895-1896 season, showcasing the team's management and players in their Victorian attire. The team's Chairman, Mr. Lindsay Gordon, stands proudly in the center, flanked by the Treasurer, Mr. Dewar, and the Secretary, Mr. Law. The Trainer, Mr. Stopher, is seen at the far left, with a pipe in hand and a watchful eye on the team. The eleven players, all in various stages of donning their footballing attire, are identified in the bottom right corner of the photograph. Among them is Captain McInroy, who wears a flat cap, while Saunders, Clark, and Rhodes sport bowler hats. Other players, such as Kidd, King, Matthew, Graham, Davis, Matthews, Higson, Jones, Whelan, Geddes, and Beveridge, are seen in suits, waistcoats, and shorts. The team's mascot, a bulldog named Leatherbarrow, is notably absent from the photograph, but the players' determined expressions and focused gaze suggest their unwavering commitment to their sport. The shield emblem on their jerseys reflects the team's pride and dedication to their club. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of these late 1890s footballers and their management team. The moustaches, pipes, and flat caps add to the nostalgic charm, making this a captivating piece of sports history.
