Re: FA Cup 1871/1872

Just to follow up here Anthony - I've emailed HistorialKits to ask the exact source of the Hitchin FC colours shown, as he mentioned the Charles Alcock annuals within the list of sources above.

Re: FA Cup 1871/1872

Re: South Eastern League 1901-8 & others

Just seconding Chris' comments here Anthony. A wonderful collection of results. It would be great to expand upon the Hitchin FC section in the history on the Club website, so if you happen to have a spreadsheet of all Hitchin FC fixtures/results, that would be great to include.
