NOLU badge : Millwall Rovers / Millwall Athletic ‘The Dockers’


NOLU badge : Millwall Rovers / Millwall Athletic ‘The Dockers’

Back by public demand, we at NOLU are proud once again to be able to offer a re-imagined version of our first in the historic badge series celebrating Millwall’s Isle of Dogs years from 1885 to 1910.

The original badge was launched as a limited edition and so it will remain with this revamped version using a reversed layout of a dark blue field with white edging. Across the top line and using a Victorian style font is the word ‘Millwall’. Down the left side is the original club name ‘Rovers’, whilst the right side carries the second title of ‘Athletic’. The main logo is a stylised M with a red A and FC entwined across the bottom. Underneath lies the old club nickname ‘The Dockers’ above the words Isle of Dogs and London.

There are three ways to purchase this badge:

Paypal – please forward £5 per badge to nolumagazine@hotmail.co.uk (please note this is our new email address following problems with the old)

Cheque – for £5 per badge made payable to ‘Nick Hart’ care of NOLU, PO Box 62554, London E6 9GH – please don’t forget your name and address.

Cash – I will be selling the badges at the usual NOLU spot adjacent to the Zampa Road entrance gate at the forthcoming home games.

All profits from the NOLU badges will contribute to NOLU costs, sponsorships and charitable donations.

Any queries please do email me at nolumagazine@hotmail.co.uk

1945 War Final (South) commemorative badge - £5 per badge


April 1945. Bomb shattered London is exhausted after nearly six years of conflict. In Europe the war is entering its final phase and across the seas, the Japanese will soon face defeat. For the dockers of Bermondsey, Rotherhithe and Deptford, the Southern Area Cup Final at Wembley between Millwall and Chelsea provides a welcome relief from the austerities of the day.

To commemorate this historic moment, NOLU magazine has designed the fifth badge in the Millwall history series. Using the colours of the Union Jack, the design incorporates the Victory V symbol with the word 'Millwall' across the top, 'War Cup' down the left side of the V and 'Final' on the right side'. In the central white area the year 1945 is marked alongside our nickname the 'Lions'.

At the base of the V is the usual NOLU tag.

To buy please forward £5 per badge as follows;

CHEQUE - made payable please to 'Nick Hart' c/o NOLU, PO Box 62554, London E6 9GH

PAYPAL - pleased forward £5 per badge to noluthemag@hotmail.co.uk

CASH - I will have these badges on me when we sell NOLU before the next home game on the 16th January. If anyone would like me to reserve a copy for collection on the day, please email me via noluthemag@hotmail.co.uk

Profits from these badges will benefit - deBRA www.debra.org.uk - the national charity working on behalf of people in the UK with the genetic skin blistering condition Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB).
