I was there along with many more (some more) on here. I have not watched but Danny Blanchflower Captain of Spurs Double Winning Team will I presume be commentating

He was notorious for using the word "chance" when the ball was in the area sometimes 3 or 4 times in quick succession.

Wasn't Kevin Hector playing for BPA sometime around then before he went off to fame and Derby County? No idea if he was on that pitch though. Thought at first we were wearing an early version of the hoops too. But it turned out to be t'other lot...

talking of archives my memo is so bad, but did we ever have a gk called Ogden think first name Stan????

[Askern_reds]

what an idiot.john ogston can anyone remember this keeper? Am I right in saying he always punched the ball instead of catching it

[Donnywolf]

No ... he did not punch EVERY ball although he had a high ratio of punches v catches but missed some crosses as well whilst trying to punch them
