Old Bordenians to Veterans to Geriatrics – the boys done good
As early as 1926 it was hoped to start an Old Bordenian Football Club, but nothing materialised. The first match (apart from the annual game against the School) was played against the Old Anchorians (Gillingham County School Old Boys) on November 5th 1927, and the return game in March 1928. The next effort was in the spring of 1930 when three friendly matches were played.
