Not everyones cup of tea I realise so if your not interested in history feel free to ignore the post safe in the knowledge you have missed nothing......










......just a quick plug if you have an interest in football and military history.

A new study group of military and football historians will research and publish papers on the links between football and war. Its supported by the National football museum and Wolverhampton Uni.

There will be conferences and public lectures the first one next week on Thursday 1 June, details can be found here https://www.wlv.ac.uk/about-us/our-schools-and-institutes/faculty-of-social-sciences/school-of-social-historical-and-political-studies/news-and-events/football-and-war-network-inaugural-seminar/

Prof Gary Sheffield is speaking alongside David Rout from the NFM, I am also speaking on our clubs (mis) fortunes 1914-18

Its a good opportunity for football club museums to get together with military historians and explore the subject further.

Anyway of your near to Wolverhampton (entrance is free) or just want to follow the twitter handle @footballandwar your more than welcome.
