From memory I believe that Norwich City F.C. was formed following a meeting at the Criterion Cafe in Norwich on 17 June 1902 and then a sub meeting occurred on 2 July 1902 by a group of friends led by three former Norwich CEYMS players, Robert Webster, Joseph Cowper and Brad Skelly,[1][3] and played their first competitive match against Harwich & Parkeston, at Newmarket Road on 6 September 1902.[4]
