With Halloween coming up I decided to go to my local fancy dress shop to see if I could get a Dracula costume. After a few minutes the assistant handed me a Hull KR shirt asking "Is this suitable?", I replied "I think you may have misheard me, I said I wanted to look like a count."

"Huddersfield Cricket and Athletic Club"?

Just a guess, probably not.

Switzerland national football side maybe (judging by the acronym CHF) although the date predates their first international?

Could be a red herring, but I would imagine the CHF will be the key to sourcing it.

 

Switzerland's first international was in 1905 so can't be that.

Sounds extreme, but when you give it some thought... :kolobok_wink:

I don’t know the score but they  probably played for a penalty shoot out

After all that it looks rather like it might be a Hull FC RL cap :
