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:
“At first, it must be remembered, that [women] can never accomplish anything until they put womanhood ahead of wifehood, and make motherhood the highest office on the social scale.”
—“Jennie June” Croly 1829–1901, U.S. founder of the woman’s club movement, journalist, author, editor. Demorest’s Illustrated Monthly and Mirror of Fashions, pp. 24-5 (January 1870)
“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)
“Your wits can’t thicken in that soft moist air, on those white springy roads, in those misty rushes and brown bogs, on those hillsides of granite rocks and magenta heather. You’ve no such colours in the sky, no such lure in the distances, no such sadness in the evenings. Oh the dreaming! the dreaming! the torturing, heart-scalding, never satisfying dreaming, dreaming, dreaming, dreaming!”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
