The BBC article say
Anyway, wasn't it nearly a year after formation that the first game was played? Which might explain the confusion.
It also says we won the Anglo-Scottish Cup in 1976. We actually won it in 1975.

We live in hope. It's a chance for them to make some€ , build a connection with the kids etc could be really big and help them in the future. Projects in the schools etc
Aren't most season tickets holders 40+ these days? Need to build for the future

18th of this month 1876 we were formed but played a friendly against a rugby team name just over 12 months later called Teess Wanderers on the 1st March 1877
Jackson Ewbank is credited with scoring our 1st ever goal
Some say we played a game before that date but I've yet to see it
