EDITORS COMMENTS
This group photograph, taken in 1894, showcases the Essex football team in their prime. The team members, including Russell, Wells, Sheldrake, Porter, Brewerton, Johnson, Baker, Earle, Hughes, Mayes (Captain), Porter, and Markham, are proudly displayed in their athletic attire, with some donning flat caps and bowler hats. The team's manager, Major Rasch, stands amongst them, smartly dressed in a suit. Surrounding the players are the team's management and officials. The Secretary, R Cook, is seen taking notes with a determined expression. The Mayor of Chelmsford, Councillor Cramphorn, adds an air of prestige to the scene, while the referee, Kirkup, and linesman, Notkutt, ensure fair play on the field. The year is 1894, and the team's spirit is palpable in this photograph. The players' moustaches and the crispness of their uniforms are reminiscent of the late Victorian era. The scene is a snapshot of a bygone era, where camaraderie, sport, and community came together on the football pitch. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of football in Essex and the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, and a reminder of the enduring appeal of the beautiful game.
