12 December : Keith Ellis has uncovered this photograph of South Shields Adelaide taken in 1905. Although we cannot confirm the colour of the stripes , I believe they are most likely red and white . The club has a complicated history , dropping the Adelaide suffix in 1905 before joining the Football League in 1919. New information that has come to light about the origins of the club have been added to the South Shields / Gateshead section . ( 1904-15 , 1922-23 strips added . )
