Yep, it's February the 12th, so it's the 119th birthday of our beloved club.

A little bit of history;

http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/newsfeatures/news/newsarticle/tabid/5586/newsid/89468/default.aspx

It was on February 12 1892 in a crowded Collingwood Town Hall that the endorsement and thus creation of the Collingwood Football Club occurred.
After months of petitioning by the town auditor E.L. Wilson and local landowner Alan Mansfield for the Victoria Football Association (VFA) to accept Collingwood as the 13th league club, a meeting was called on February 12 to invite men and women living in Collingwood to endorse the creation of the Club.

Some celebrations;

That’s wrong, the first meeting and the start of the Collingwood Football Club was at the Grace Darling in Smith St.
 
It's Dayne Beams' 21st birthday today too!
