Stoke, books, history, football
It's 125 years to the day since Leigh Roose, the pioneering Edwardian goalkeeper, played his first game in a Stoke City shirt (a 2-2 draw at the Victoria Ground v Blackburn). Listed as missing-in-action in October 1916 during the Battle of the Somme, his body was never recovered.
