FA Charity Shield

Albion 1 Aston Villa 0 (5/9/1910) - Stamford Bridge

Perhaps our greatest-ever day. A goal from Charlie Webb gave Albion the opportunity to call themselves ‘Champions of All-England’. The programme is something of a disappointment, as it was incorporated into the programme for Chelsea’s game a couple of days previously. Nevertheless, it’s the ‘Holy Grail’ for Albion programme collectors.
