Had it been won at Leicester, they'd all have had Glacier Mints. Elsewhere, it could've been Bluebird Toffee, for which they'd have needed a Hammer.

I'm sure other Premier League confectionery-based humour is also available.

Everton Mints.

Oi! This is not the Guardian football comments section.

It's close, John, but not quite the same. Our original colour, Eton Blue, is more like Cambridge Blue, which you see on the tunics and the tips of the Cambridge crew's oars during the Boat Race. Arsenal just describe the shade of the shirts as a "modern green base colour."

I thought of this post and the ensuing discussion when I saw this today :

A surprisingly clean-shaven team for the times, I've always thought.

Founder Gus Mears on the far-left there with the legendary Fred Parker above-right of him.

I didn't know Stan Laurel had been involved with the club.

Quite like the black socks, incidentally, and interesting to see a couple of pairs of, what, white/grey/silver boots, though maybe that's the colouriser having a bit of fun.

Heh! Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if he was. The club was a common target of the music hall comics.

William Foulke showing more than we need to see. He was a big bloke, but didn't look obese in that photo.

[Janik]

He appears to have been big in every direction. Which probably helped, as a ‘keeper... Given people were on average smaller back then, he must have seemed enormous.

I mean, compare him to the bloke on his left. It’s ridiculous.
