This latest set of artifacts for inclusion into 'The Collection' for your weekend entertainment. Starting at the club's centenary with this lovely cockerel. We will skim over the last hundred years and look at fans and their travel plans. We include the clubs financial side, some celebrations and we look inside the Directors Box and there are a few other curio's I think you might like.

This cheque comes from the thirties and we learn the club has paid its water bill with this glorious looking item.

Below left a set of commemorative plates. While to the right we find the prospectus from when the club was launched onto the stock market.

Below right a set of turnstile weights from the thirties use to weigh the coins collected. Whilst to the left one of the old turnstiles from the old stadium.
