EDITORS COMMENTS
1909: A Page from the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News - Football Match: Some Popular Songs for Footballers The roar of the crowd, the thud of the ball, and the thrill of the game - the excitement of a football match in the Edwardian era was a spectacle unlike any other. This image from the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, published in 1909, depicts various scenes of rugby and football, each accompanied by humorous songs of the period that echoed the spirit of the game. In the foreground, a goalkeeper, with a determined expression, leans low to block a powerful shot on goal. Spectators, dressed in their finest Edwardian attire, watch with bated breath as the ball sails through the air. The goalposts, adorned with bunting, stand tall against the backdrop of a bustling stadium. As the ball is kicked, runners in jerseys and knickers dash across the field, their faces a mix of concentration and exuberance. A referee, with a whistle around his neck, stands ready to call fouls, while a fallen player lies in the grass, a victim of the rough-and-tumble nature of the game. Amidst the chaos, the humourous songs of the period provide a lighthearted contrast. "Here we go gathering nuts in May," sings one group of spectators, while another chants, "Oh, I do like to be beside the seaside, oh, I do like to be beside the sea." These songs, passed down through generations, serve as a reminder of the rich history and camaraderie that surrounds the beautiful game. This page from the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when football was more than just a sport - it was a source of joy, laughter, and community spirit.
