Surprised we’ve not heard anything about the 150th thing.
For 150, I want a retro kit. Proper retro, no sponsor, no names on the back and very long shorts like trousers.One match at VP should be played with a brown leather ball with the stitching on it.Free top hats given out to supporters.The team comes out to Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake music (came out in the 1870s so everyone back then would have been bopping their heads to it). What food could be served at half time?
What food could be served at half time?
According to a study published in the Royal Society of Medicine, "How the Mid-Victorians Worked, Ate and Died", the combination of enormous amounts of physical activity (most people did physically demanding jobs which meant they were active for 50 to 60 hours a week) and a diet rich in fruits, whole grains, oily fish and vegetables meant that Victorians suffered less from chronic, degenerative diseases than we do.Dr Paul Clayton, one of the authors of the study, claims that they were "90% less likely to develop cancer, dementia and coronary artery disease than we are today". It certainly meant that diseases like type-2 diabetes, which plague modern society, were vanishingly rare.

Doesn't the massively lower life expectancy back then rather undermine claims like 'there was less dementia'? Most people didn't live long enough to see if they developed it.

If this is true, it’s not too bad.
New dogheads kit looks a lot like the Rangers and Newcastle ones. Clean design. Good chance our will be similar
