From 1982, City continued to wear the traditional red and white kit and, from December 1983, a pure text “BC82” logo was used as their badge, representing the new company formed after the club’s survival. City played Rotherham at home on January 9th 1954 in the FA Cup third round. City lost 3-1 with John Atyeo (pictured during the game) scoring their only goal – but what stood out from this fixture was the fact the Robins had to borrow a set of Bristol Rovers’ shirts due to a clash of kits.

We are studying how cells make these choices and the genes that direct their fate. We’re particularly interested in the stem cells that correspond to early embryo cells, which have the capacity to turn into many different cells types. We are also studying how specific structures, such as the pituitary gland or the brain, develop as an embryo grows, and how these come to contain tissue-specific stem cells, and in turn what controls the fate of these stem cells.The 2022 Genetics Society medal is awarded to Robin Lovell-Badge. Robin will receive his Medal at a Society scientific meeting during the coming year. Then the other half were saying let's go with the robin and let's be bold and brave, so we were left with the dilemma of how we keep these two schools of thought happy." initial concepts were presented with none hitting all the key parts of the brief that we had evolved enough. Fans showed a desire to push the club further and to future proof the change. Robin was a Distinguished and is now a Special Visiting Professor at the University of Hong Kong (where he has also been a visiting professor since 1996); an Honorary Professor at UCL, (since 2003), and a Visiting Professor at King’s College London (since 2016). He is President of the Institute of Animal Technologists.

The Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Regiment) was formed during the 1881 Childers Reforms of the British Army. The 45th (Nottinghamshire) Regiment of Foot (raised in 1741) and the 95th (Derbyshire) Regiment of Foot (raised in 1823) were redesignated as the 1st and 2nd battalions of The Sherwood Foresters (Derbyshire Regiment). The Derbyshire and Royal Sherwood Foresters Militias (militia and rifle volunteers) became the 3rd (Robin Hood Rifles) and 4th Battalions respectively. These were joined by the 1st and 2nd (Derbyshire) and the 3rd and 4th (Nottinghamshire) Volunteer Battalions. The Headquarters of the Regimental District was established at Derby. In 1902, the Nottinghamshire association was made explicit, the name changing to The Sherwood Foresters (Nottingham and Derbyshire) Regiment. Following a series of mergers since 1970, its lineage is now continued by the 2nd battalion, the Mercian Regiment. The same situation arose on January 3rd 1958, when City played Accrington Stanley away in the FA Cup third round. They drew 2-2 with Wally Hinshelwood and Dermot Curtis getting City’s goals. For the replay a few days later, the Robins once again borrowed Bristol Rovers kit and this time won 3-1, with Atyeo scoring two goals and Dermot Curtis getting the other.It was in 1990, in collaboration with Peter Goodfellow’s lab, that Robin identified Sry/ SRY as a new candidate for the testis determining gene in mice and humans. He went on to prove that Sry was the gene and the only one on the Y chromosome required to initiate testis rather than ovary differentiation. Subsequent work by Robin’s lab and others have identified and tested the function of many other relevant genes and established many of the genetic pathways involved in the initiation and maintenance of gonadal sex. The new design is able to be utilised in a variety of ways, including being able to stand out in an 8mm-by-8mm digital space in a way the traditional one cannot. The crest which we know and love today, was designed for an analogue world, to attract and retain the next generation of supporters we have to evolve consider how we compete with the challenges of the 21st century and the digital world.
