It was a long day...

 

I held up a line of traffic in Brisbane City centre because i was looking at the wrong lights.

 

 

Fuck em, they're only Australians.

I've just dropped my daughter at the airport. Up since four o'clock, I could be making similar cock ups today.

Having posted our team for the last game we had in Div 4, in 1971  I thought it would be interesting to do so for our first game back in it after relegation.  This is the team lineup for the game at Notts County Aug 9 1969. A 0-0 draw was one of our better results ea;y on, as we won only four matches upto the end of the following January.  Frizzell's appointment as manager rallied the troops and we eventually climbed to 19th.

Just three players - Bowie, Bebbington, and Whittle - remained in the team for the final match in the following season when we were promoted.

I was six and was probably there. All the names are very familiar apart from Alan Lawson. No bells ringing at all.

Numbers 1 to 11, one sub, blue and tangerine, World Cup winner at left back....

 

Some of the county players were decent too: Masson, Needham, Barker, Butlin. I was at that game being a Barlows regular back in the day. An average season but still happy memories.

Tough as teak, ginger haired Scottish centre half who made significantly more first team appearances than I remember. One thing that does stick in the memory was him booting Tony Hateley on his gammy knee in a reserve match at Ashton after he left us !
