On this day

Love having a read through of the On This Day, section on the Heritage Trust site.

What caught my eye today was the game on the 2nd January 2003, against the Victims.

This game kicked off our centenary year and we got a credible draw against a good Victim side and from my memory, we played very well that day and should have won.

I remember the game well and still have my match programme and other stuff relating to our centenary year.

A crowd of just over 16k and over 3k, were victim fans.

Credit to the club for at least getting more fans through the turnstiles nowadays, even if the on field product doesn't match fan enthusiasm.

The centenary was a bit of a let-down, if I recall correctly.

Hopefully they've got big plans for our 125th in 2028. Apart from winning the quadruple, of course.
