It is 100 years since Huddersfield Town won the English Cup; let the celebrations begin!
- 30% off English Cup merchandise
- Barnsley game starts the celebrations
- More to come next week
On 29 April 1922, Huddersfield Town were victorious in the English Cup, the former name to the FA Cup. The final was held at Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge for the last time before moving to the newly built Wembley Stadium.
Town’s opponents that day were Preston North End and Town won by a single goal; a penalty scored by Billy Smith in the 67th minute.
As Friday’s game against Barnsley is the closest home fixture to this date, we are launching our celebrations at this game.
Not only this, but we are offering 30% off selected English Cup merchandise, which includes a hoodie, a polo shirt and replica leather football, all with the English Cup winners medal inscription on them. CLICK HERE to browse and buy.
Inspired by Town’s victory, this season’s blue and white stripes have been designed in homage to that Cup winning kit, and you can find out what the families of those players think about this season’s home shirt HERE.
There are still some 2021/22 Home Shirts left in limited sizes – CLICK HERE to buy.
Before the game on Friday, in front of The Core Stand, you will have an opportunity to view memorabilia from our FA Cup win and also a chance to talk with Clem Stephenson Jr, grandson of medal winner Clem Stephenson. Clem Jr will also be in the White Rose Club later in the evening.
The match day programme’s front cover will be a mix of the original Cup Final programme cover with a modern twist and will have a feature in it about that momentous day in 1922, including a chance meeting of the two teams on the journey to the game!
Hospitality guests will be able to view the original shirts, tickets, and other memorabilia in the display case outside the Boardroom.
