Delete#60 - The Crusaders
ReplyDeleteA site which I presume is the club's current merchandising outlet (https://crusadersfcshop.com/products/crusaders-rover-comic-feature-poster-a2) is selling a poster which is a reproduction of their entry in this list.
That's a good spot, thanks for letting me know. I'll add a new post some time over the weekend.
