    The White Horse Final
    2026/04/28

    OTD E0179 — 28 Apr 1923: The new Empire Stadium staged its first match, the FA Cup Final, and nearly lost control of the whole thing. Bolton beat West Ham 2-0, but the day became immortal for the vast unticketed crowd, the delayed kick-off, and PC George Scorey’s grey horse Billie, which looked white in the photographs and gave football one of its great myths. This episode traces the FA Cup’s rise, Wembley’s birth, the chaos, the goals, and the stadium’s afterlife.
