They're not interested. Do a Bassett one and they'll be all over it.

Very sad that even on Christmas day you have to continue with your bile.

Merry Christmas Pinchy.

Merry Christmas Pinchy.

What else does a lonely, bitter failure of a human being have to do on Christmas Day?

Anyway, all the best to you and yours.

Xmas 1973. Will leave it to the others to name them

I'll do the ones I'm sure of:

Cec Coldwell, Hodgy, Gentleman John, John Short, John Flynn, Colin Franks, Billy Dearden, Mick Speight, Ted Hemsley, Tony Currie, Len Badger, Geoff Salmons, Woody, Dave Staniforth.

One looks very much like Keith Eddy but I thought he was signed by Furphy?

I think Steve Cammack and Ian McKenzie are there as well. Others would be guesswork. Goulding? Ogden?

All correct but you missed out 4 more. My favourite captain, a striker who was with with us for 12 months and two keepers

Harris signed Eddy in summer 1972, His first touch for us was in the Watney Cup final penalty shoot out and he scored

Two more to name. Top left and to Len Badger's left

John Connaughton & Steve Goulding

 

[Silent Blade]

John Connaughton & Steve Goulding

John Connaughton is correct. Steve Goulding (to Len's right) has already been named by Pinchy . I meant the player to Len's left the one pointing to the drawing

Ah Jimmy Bone

 

[Silent Blade]

Ah Jimmy Bone

Strange that he is the last to be named in this forum but was the first to be named when I posted the photo in my Facebook!

I think we had one for 1972-73 too but am struggling to remember what it was like

These were pretty ground breaking back in those days....I did buy a few....i'll see if I can find.

 

[Blade1959]

I think they did do, at least one previous year. There was always a photo of the players & families christmas party in the programme around that time.
