EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1904, showcasing the formidable defense of Sheffield Wednesday Football Club. The image features six distinguished players who were instrumental in shaping the team's success during that era. At the top, we see J. Lyall and H. Burton standing tall, radiating confidence as they guard their territory with unwavering determination. On the right-hand side, H. Ruddlesden joins them, his focused gaze hinting at his commitment to protecting their goal. In the bottom row stands T. Crawshaw, a true leader as he assumes his role as captain of this esteemed squad. His presence exudes authority and inspires respect among his teammates and opponents alike. To his right is R. Ferrier, displaying an intense concentration that speaks volumes about his dedication to keeping rival strikers at bay. Completing this remarkable defensive line-up is W. Layton on the top left corner—a player whose agility and skill are evident even in this still photograph. Preserved meticulously by Sheffield libraries (s00410), this historical gem offers a glimpse into a defining chapter of Sheffield Wednesday FC's legacy—an iconic football club deeply rooted in Yorkshire's rich sporting heritage
