EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1902, capturing the essence of Sheffield United Football Club in all its glory. Standing tall among his teammates is none other than their legendary goalkeeper, (Fatty) Foulke, positioned fifth from the left in the back row. Known for his remarkable agility despite his robust build, Foulke was a force to be reckoned with between the goalposts. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an extraordinary gathering of football pioneers who paved the way for future generations. The imposing figure at the center of the front row is Ernest Needham, a stalwart presence both on and off the pitch. Towering behind them all stands Bill Foulke, another prominent member of this illustrious team. The players are clad in their traditional kit and sportswear that epitomize an era when simplicity reigned supreme. Each player's costume reflects not only their dedication to sport but also their unwavering commitment to Sheffield United FC. As we delve into this historical photograph brimming with nostalgia and pride, it serves as a reminder of how far football has come since those early days. It encapsulates an era when passion and camaraderie were paramount; where men like (Fatty) Foulke etched their names into sporting folklore through sheer determination and skill
