85 years as Sheffield Wednesday

[dunsbyowl]

I noticed that the 85th anniversary of the name change from The Wednesday FC to Sheffield Wednesday just passed on the 29th of June (1929). I susppose having Charles Clegg in the Chair prevent any delays in ratifying that

 

 

I wondered how may other teams there has been with Wednesday in their name and complied this list from newspaper press reports and I must confess I gave up! No wonder they changed the name!!

 

It's shame the The Sunderland Butchers’ Wednesday Football Club never drew United in the FA Cup

The reference to football boots in that meeting was to ban the use of pink and blue boots. Time to reintroduce that one.

[helmut_rooster]

They are just are fan clubs

[Miffed]

[Arthur Bach]

Hope this puts to bed the silly notion of us changing our name back to The Wednesday.
