Do you want an EFW logo in your teams colours!? Drop me a line and I'll post one out to you. What's not to like!?

Alty-gether now: Good Old Sussex by the Sea

"On Saturday at five to three
There's only one place to be
Down at the Moss Lane football ground
The team come out, the crowd all roar
We come win lose or draw
The only team for me is Altrincham FC
Oh the Robins aren't Bobbins says me
The Alty!”

Lewes 2-0 Altrincham (04:04:09)

337 people turned up to the Dripping Pan yesterday to witness history in the making. Lewes FC were to enter into the Guinness Book of Records for being the most 'bobbins' team in history. They'd lost their previous 18 games in a row, a 19th would be a record for an English professional team.

They won (You what!? - Ed). Yep, they won, easily AND in doing so they scored their first home league goals since 22nd November (November!).

A shame that we had to beat Altrincham in achieving that illusive win. The Alty are the favoured team of our great pal and EFW Facebook member Frank Sidebottom.

I wasn't going to to do a report on the match but seeing as though it was such an historic occasion, I couldn't let it pass without a mention could I!? So here are a few photos from the day.

18 defeats in a row!? You'd have to be as mad as a hatter to attend the Dripping Pan.

You'll Never Walk Alone.

"You're going home on a organised football coach".

The Alty fans were fully flagged up.

Oh My God - Lewes have scored. The players celebrate Lewes and England star Dave Wheeler's goal. The first home goal at the Dripping Pan for umpty thrumpty days, weeks and - get this - months.

Serial 'Golden Goal' winner Cynical Dave won it again yesterday. As did our new pal on the right here (also from Scotland by the way).

As is (non league) tradition, we changed ends at half time.

30 years in the biz. Alty manager Graham Heathcote. He was a bit concerned - during the making of this photo - that he was about to appear on a communist website!

The Daddy! Lewes skipper Danny Cullip joins the EFW team.

Wheeeeler! Lewes and England star Dave Wheeler. The gift that keeps giving and the Lewes player of the season by several country miles.

As the EFW team celebrated long into the night - who should appear on the wall of the Albert pub just up the road from EFW HQ but my mate and yours Frank Sidebottom "You know it is, it really is.".

European Football Weekends - The Gallery - Part 1

We don't often blow our own trumpet here do we!? (yes - Ed). Similarly, we've never been ones to bend in the wind of public pressure have we!? (yes - Ed). So when it was suggested to us that we open our very own gallery, well...we just simply couldn't refuse.

The EFW logo is fast becoming one of Europe's most recognisable. So we thought we'd celebrate it by showcasing it in various locations.

Want the logo to be seen at your clubs ground? Of course you do. Send me an email (dannylast@hotmail.com) and I'll post you one out.

Ladies and gentlemen - The EFW Logo Gallery is officially open for business - step this way.

How did that get there!?

St Etienne v Bordeaux

Don't think football managers don't want a piece of the action as well. For example Wrexham FC gaffer Dean Saunders.

Tooting and Mitcham guv'nor Billy Smith.

Harrow Borough boss David Howell.

Hampton and Richmond manager and ex-West Ham United legend Alan Devonshire. Oh, I appeared to have sneaked into this one...well, he did play in the 1980 FA Cup Final AND won.

The infamous Merstham FC ultras. These guys have since gone on to fame and lots of it. They've even got their very own Merstham Ultras Appreciation Society.

And to finish of part 1 of the gallery, a local scene here near to EFW HQ in Brighton.

So that's it for Part 1 folks. We're thinking up a name for the next batch of photos - current favourite is Part 2. Before anyone tries to claim any of the above were doctored in photoshop, think again. We have the IT skills of a newt here at EFW HQ and frankly we're flattered you could even think such a thing. They are all originals. Don't forget if you want the logo to be photographed at your club, drop us a line and we'll pop one in the post to you.
