A Good Name Endureth

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

Its written under the hornchurch badge...

What does that mean?

[Eastside Urchin]

its our moto,most football clubs have one.

It means a good name to last.At least that is my enterpretation of it.

[Diz]

Also on the badge at Emerson park school.

The clubs badge is also the same. At least when I went there anyway.

It's the towns motto, which the club must have adopted too??

[stantheman]

It comes originally from the Apocrypha - Sirach Chapter 41 verse 12 "A good life hath but few days: but a good name endureth for ever."

[lesbos]

i like tilburys motto on their badge 'who you fecking looking at'.

[American FLEET FAN No1]

Ebbsfleet's reads: Where the fecks that?

[Dagger03]

Just to clarify - it was the badge of the HORNCHURCH URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL and was granted on 14th September 1948

 

Details are as follows -

ARMS: Argent on a Saltire between three Roses Gules barbed and seeded proper and in base a Human Heart of the second a Martlet Or.

CREST: On a Wreath of the Colours in front of a Church Gable proper a Bull's Head and Neck affronteé couped Or.

 

Motto 'A GOOD NAME ENDURETH'.

 

Sid - it's another one for your 'facts of Hornchurch'.

It's the same for the local cubs/scouts.... I was one once and the badge/motto were there then.... I guess they still are.

I left in 99. Those where the days

[cantos]

I went to a Catholic All Boys School.

 

Our motto was "Dontus Bendoverous En De Showerous".

[Serious Sid]

Ha Ha, Sounds like a Harry Potter spell.
