In 1881 they became the 3rd Volunteer Battalion, Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Regiment), but they retained their title until the formation of the TF in 1908, when they became the 7th (Robin Hood) Battalion, Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Regiment). During the initial research phase fans were keen to ensure this was a natural evolution rather than an overhaul. Supporters were proud that the club are one of the few in Rugby League that remained true to it’s original identity with no name change or Americanised badge introduced in the Super League era like many other teams. Yet they recognised that the club needs to evolve and move forward in the digital world. New Chief Executive Paul Lakin is appointed and gives the project the go-ahead to move forward ahead of the 2022 season. In all 106 variations of the new look were explored, with the final version receiving overwhelming approval from the fan sounding board.

To commemorate election to the Football League Division Two in 1901, a badge of the Bristol Coat of Arms on a shield was sewn on to the players’ shirts. This was worn for two seasons before plain red shirts returned. Animals start life as a single cell: a fertilised egg that grows and multiplies to form millions of cells making up all the tissues and organs of the body. Along the way, cells need to decide what actions to follow, such as dividing or dying, or what to become - for example, whether to become nerve cells or supporting cells in the brain. The Bristol Coat of Arms was reintroduced for 1970/71 and was embroidered on to the shirts. This season City reached the League Cup semi-finals for the first time, losing to Tottenham Hotspur over two legs. A simplified version of the robin on the ball, with the Clifton Suspension Bridge, but not in a shield, was embroidered on the shirts from 1986-94 before the Bristol Coat of Arms returned once more in 1994/95. 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 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. 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. Route refined and tested in multiple formats including retail product, digital work and a further group of supporters who were new to the project, with no prior knowledge of the journey so far. His work also includes a focus on stem cells. These self-renewing cells have the potential to transform into any other cell type and hold promise for treating a wide range of diseases. By studying the genes that confer these special abilities, Robin is examining how the decisions that determine the ultimate role of a cell in the body are made.

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. This is about the club building on 140 years of history to continually move forwards, with a fresh approach in how we look and how we think whilst staying true to who we are. People get a bit nervous when you talk about club badges and I get it. I've been to funerals where people have been draped in the flag and I've seen people have it tattooed on their arm. 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. He was elected a member of EMBO in 1993, a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 1999, and a fellow of the Royal Society in 2001. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA, elected 2002), and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology (elected 2011). He has received the Louis Jeantet Prize for Medicine (1995), the Amory Prize (Awarded by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences) (1996), the Feldberg Foundation Prize (2008), and the Waddington Medal of the British Society for Developmental Biology (2010).
