I take it you discovered this after the Pride Park thread earlier? Yeh was surprised so many teams played baseball in those days, I can't imagine it. Villa's best player when they won it also captained the football side and played for England here is the Derby side: they should have those jersey's in their club shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birley Owl 1867 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Apart from the fact that the baseball and football club are/were distinct, then yes they should sell them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birley Owl 1867 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 In fact it seems im incorrect myself. Apart from a tenious link between both county's and the cricket club, the club's are very distinct from each other bar sharing the same name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
