Old Photos For No Reason Whatsoever

Died 2 months later

Malcolm X and a few of the talk organisers came round to our house for dinner (the chap on the far right of the picture was a lodger at our house). My mum said that Malcolm foretold of his own demise, saying in conversation "I don't think I've got long to live" or words to that effect. I'm sure he wasn't referring to mum's standard of cooking!

Now that's a claim to fame, Malcolm X came round for his tea What did you have? Did no-one take him to the lane?

Apparently it was on Friday 4th December 1964, so no game on at the Lane .
Who knows, maybe he went up Bramall Lane on the way to our house!

Hello Silent- Regarding your post 28,661. I have 50 original pictures of Football Club Shirts from that era (late forties) but can't remember which publication I got them from. Mine are similar in style and size so maybe The Rover. Mine is not a full set as I see The Blades appear in your picture but not in my collection. Do you know how many there are in a full set?
It is interesting to see a good number of shirt colours have changed since 1948.For example Leeds are in your picture in their old blue and yellow halves/quarters.

Why was the attendance only 12,000? And was Malcolm one of them?

I was born and raised until around 5 years of age on Manor oaks close and remember walking past the PO/BT building as a kid being so excited to see loads of yellow British Telecom vans as we passed.

Don Revie changed the kit to all white. I think it was due to his belief they would intimidate the opposition to think they were facing Real Madrid. (The blue and gold still remain on the Leeds scarves)

Bill Shankly changed the white shorts at Liverpool to red thinking that an all red kit would be more intimidating.

With regard to Malcolm X - if he'd been seen at the Lane in December then it would have been all over here saying he was signing for us in January.

Gerrem on here, please, all part of our football edification.
Thank you.
Reference Leeds, it was halves, but they also had this configuration,
Arsenal style, modeld by the colossus, both physically and footballing ability, John Charles.

That was at the start of what was to be Belfast Celtic's last season, though nobody knew that at the time.

Why was the attendance only 12,000? And was Malcolm one of them?

He had another public engagement in London on 5th December 1964, so he deffo wasn't at the Lane (source).
Maybe he went to see Spurs beat Wendy 3-2 .

"FUN FACT: Before he changed his name, Malcolm X was formerly known as Malcolm Twitter."

That festival was almost certainly Joe Cocker’s finest hour when he put on a stunning performance .

Malcolm X, formerly known as Twitter.

In all the years I’ve been on here, I reckon Malcolm X coming round for dinner is the best casual, most understated claim to fame I’ve ever read!

Looking at the skinny ankles I wondered if it was Joan Baez. She was 6 months pregnant at the time so the rear view doesn't help much.

Haha, OK strike that Joan Baez comment, it's actually John Sebastian who founded The Lovin' Spoonful in 1964. He wrote a few songs such as 'Do you believe in magic', and did say that the picture became more famous than he ever did. God bless my wife and her knowledge of Google

No, that’s definitely Joan Baez. Or, possibly, Suze Rotolo.
