Dutch, I had it as Colchester United, but that is purely on memory, and therefore I could be wrong. I was hoping someone would say Colchester to back up my memory.

Alick was long gone by the time we played Colchester at Home on 22 March 1969.

Have I redeemed myself yet  :lol: :lol:
Just done a bit of research and I think You're right. Jeffrey, Wilcockson and Rabjohn all played in that Exeter game, and that just about confirms it.

So yes, you've redeemed yourself, I s'pose!

King Alec, Rabjohn, Wilcockson.
Yep, King Alick is on the left. I had Wilcockson (centre) and Rabjohn (right) also.

Any idea of the opposition?

P.S. That photo could be worth some money. Can anyone guess why?



World's worst spot the ball competition?
It's good but it's wrong.
OK, it might be worth summet because King Alick signed the back of the picture to me!

Name the opposition for 1 point. Name the ground for 1 point. Name the Rover for 1 point. Name the former Rover for 2 points.

Made me wonder if this was the game that was on YTV.

I searched for this footage for years....and here it is....8m 12 secs in. A real gem despite the result.

The "Alick" photo used to be on the wall of his pub, The Black Bull. Caption underneath stated it was against Peterborough, but I don't know why they would be playing in stripes.
