Club Crest and Colours
The club crest contains a graphic of Gisborough Priory, a notable Guisborough landmark.
Guisborough Town were formed in 1973 and took their colours from the club that won that year's FA Cup final. They continued to play in red and white stripes, black shorts and red stockings, until a few years ago when they spent time in the Second Division. They now celebrate their return to the Top Flight and will be playing in the original colours for the 2012-13 season.
The 2012/13 season sees the home kit being red and white striped shirt, black shorts and red socks and sponsored by Taylor Wimpey with away kit being all blue sponsored by Cleveland Land Services.

Famous quotes containing the words club, crest and/or colours:
“Mi advise tu them who are about tu begin, in arnest, the jurney ov life, is tu take their harte in one hand and a club in the other.”
—Josh Billings [Henry Wheeler Shaw] (1818–1885)
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The sounding cataract
Haunted me like a passion: the tall rock,
The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood,
Their colours and their forms, were then to me
An appetite: a feeling and a love,
That had no need of a remoter charm,
By thought supplied, or any interest
Unborrowed from the eye.—”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
