The listing has gone. Someone must've bought it. It said that they were supporters.

Just wondered why you mentioned that particular match. We played Swindon a number of times in 1906. I wondered if they might be on an away trip?

There was a reference to it on the back of the photo, derived from the poster on the left.

They are actually players not fans and it's from 1910/11 not 1906. The postcard is in David Ticehurst's book:

In the years leading up to the Great War novelty postcards were often produced by local photographers which proved very popular with the public. Taken during the 1910-11 season, this photo shows the Albion "Moochers" with a variety of props. Lto R: Back: Joe Lumley, Joe Leeming, Billy Booth, Ralph Routledge, Jimmy Smith. Seated: Jack Haworth, Tom Wake, Jimmy Coleman, unknown, Harry Middleton, Billy Miller, Bob Whiting
