Re: That Losing Habit
In 1950/51 we lost 24 of 30 matches, with a longest run of consecutive League defeats being 13. Our present team have a great chance to avoid matching that record run?

Re: Prediction - BROMSGROVE
Perhaps our team should wear Norwegian Blue shirts for the rest of this now dead season?

Dick Walker: Angling Superstar.
A fine display at North Herts Museum in Brand Street of the life and works of Dick Walker (who was born in Fishponds Road).
The 'Ranji' Adams (Hitchin FC Hall of Famer) display is also still on show there and is well worth a visit.

Re: Daniel idiakhoa
Both Daniel and Arnold scored for AFC yesterday. Anyone needing a footie fix when they can't get to a Hitchin match would find a visit to Creasey Park a good choice. Goals there are scored at both ends.......................... Such a shame that Daniel will be remembered by the fans for letting the ...

Re: Hitchin performances
Successive flat team performances, Snooker Loopy (yuk!) on the tannoy, our web site history still showing the howler that Francis Shillitoe lived at Foxholes. We are now attending matches expecting the team to be gallant losers. We want to see gallant possible winners; a squad capable of picking up ...

That Losing Habit
An unprecedented sequence of defeats means we no longer have any chance of reaching the play-offs, and opposing teams are chomping at the bit in their eagerness to add to our woes. There is a real chance of relegation unless the squad pull up their socks and battle to the magic 48 points. Even in ou...

Harry Raybould (Waders Reserves)
A query on our social media showing a picture of Biggleswade Town's team of about 1951 surprised me, as perhaps the only HTFC connections in the picture were of our ex trainer George Oldham, and Canary's legend Ken Lawrence. Whatever, the query related to Wader's reserve player Harry Raybould, whose...
