The Reds in
Bygone Days
Many of our readers will know that the Nutten
family played a significant part in the local sports
scene for much of the twentieth century. Now, Chris
Nutten has very kindly scanned through his family photo
archives to locate some fascinating pictures of
Whitstable Town FC dating back to the 1930s and possibly
beyond.
Even if you are a "non-sports" reader,
you will want to take a close look at the background of
one of the photos.

samples.
