Guest MenstrieOwl Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I am researching the career of my great uncle George Robertson, a Scottish internationalist who played for Sheffield Wednesday between 1910 and 1920. George was indirectly responsible for Wednesday becoming known as the Owls when he presented the team with an owl as a mascot and they won their next 4 home games without conceding a goal. I would love to hear from anyone who has any information on George's time in Sheffield or any photographs of him or Wednesday teams in which he appeared. Attached are two photographs of George, one with the owl he presented to the club and one with his first Scottish Cap. Iain Paterson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
