Interesting factoids. Wealdstone were one of the teams in the first ever live televised football match in the UK, away at Barnet in 1946.Twenty minutes of the game were televised in the first half and thirty five minutes of the second half before it became too dark.
...and a Notts connection...
Harold Smith was the first ever player to leave Wealdstone FC for a professional career, joining Notts County in 1930.
