Merthyr Imp 729 Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Anyone else remember the cartoon, 'Ferdinand' in the Nottingham Evening Post? Yes - wasn't it actually 'Ferd'nand'? He wore a sort of pointed hat, and I don't think there was any text, it was just the drawings - a 2 or 3 frame strip. Speaking of the Post, how about the characters that used to appear in the heading of the Football Post? See below a scan of my copy of the Post Football Guide for 1964-5 which shows them. They represented the nicknames of the teams that were covered in the paper. In case anyone's not aware, they were (from left to right): Chesterfield - 'The Spireites' (a man with a crooked hat like the church spire) Lincoln City - 'The Imps' (someone's idea of an imp - not much like the actual Lincoln Imp - see my picture!) Notts County - 'The Magpies' (a magpie wearing a hat) Nottm Forest - 'The Foresters', as they used to be known before 'Reds' caight on (meant to be a representation of a forester) Manfield Town - 'The Stags' (a man with stag's antlers) Derby County - 'The Rams' (a man with ram's horns) Leicester City - 'The Filberts', as with Forest, another old nickname (meant to be Gilbert the Filbert, who was the subject of an old song) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I remember Foo-Foo, his enemy was Go-Go if I remember right. I used to go to my mates house to watch it because out telly didn't get ITV. I was glad when it conked out & we got a proper telly that DID get ITV (had to put 2 bobs in the damn thing though) .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
