Best I can do on Pegasus is that they won a friendly 8-1 against Sheffield FC at the Lane on December 27, 1952, in front of a crowd of 11,168. A year before my first match. No idea why they played. 95th anniversary of Sheffield FC, perhaps?
Pinner was quite well known, and played a few games for Wednesday and other clubs, as an amateur I believe.

Is he doing Clubfoot or the Star Wars theme through his megaphone?

I'll be sure to watch it Bert. BBC 4 would be better though, for a chap of Bert's eccentric pedigree!!

Jeremy Kyle is at a loose end.

Thanks for that, never mind your best that's excellent, even the attendance figure and what a good one, such detail, I like it. I was 10 & 9 months, roughly, when attending the game and the thing that drew me was their badge and it's size, it was quite large as badges went in those days. I'll have a look in The Official FA Year book '52, there are records of all major competitions in there. Score line also must be an indicator as to why it was a select amateur XI for the '57 100 Year match, again thank you.

It certainly is mate, but if you could afford old newspaper underlay you were posh. We used dried grass and leaf mould.

Two of the games look like us v Bolton at Bunden Park in the late 60’s early 70’s. Can’t see who we’re playing in the other one, it’s at the Lane with Billy Dearden and Tom McCalister in our goal.

The day I got married. United lost. And Wednesday beat ManU 5-4. And we could hear the crowd at S6 while we were having our photos taken.

Wednesday beat Man U 5-4? You must have been married a long time

At least we beat Villa 4-1 the day after our 50th anniversary. Bloody long wait, mind...
