Stepping into History - Middlesbrough's Pioneering Team of 1899-1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant football scene of the late 19th century. The year is 1899, and Middlesbrough's first professional team stands united, ready to face off against Lincoln City on a momentous September day. The image captures the essence of early football with its sepia tones and vintage charm. Standing tall in their traditional kits, we see Alf Gilbert, Bill Shaw, J McNally, Jos Smith, Andy Ramsey, Peter McCracken, and Jack Smith – each player exuding determination and passion for the game. Seated gracefully in front are Herbert Allport, Bob Wanless, Jeff Longstaffe (captain), J H Gettings (manager), Bob Page and Eddie Pugh – figures who have etched their names into Middlesbrough's rich sporting history. This photograph not only showcases the players but also provides a glimpse into an era when football was still finding its footing as a professional sport. As division two competitors in Victorian England's bustling leaguescape; these men paved the way for future generations of athletes. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' dedicated staff members who understand the importance of preserving such historical treasures; this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate how far both Middlesbrough Football Club and British football as a whole have come since those early days.
