Guisborough Town F.C. - Club Crest and Colours

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:

    “The adjustment of qualities is so perfect between men and women, and each is so necessary to the other, that the idea of inferiority is absurd.”
    —“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, p. 204 (August 1866)

    “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)

    “When we reflect on our past sentiments and affections, our thought is a faithful mirror, and copies its objects truly; but the colours which it employs are faint and dull, in comparison of those in which our original perceptions were clothed.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
