Gerry Summers left us in 1964 so the photo would be 1963 or 1964

This was used as a between programme filler in the early 1970s. Still appropriate now.

Yeah, so great, it killed my Mam.

I was there one Saturday night seeing the coppers scraping up the leftovers of some sad fuck who'd jumped of the top.

He’d become our first ever boo boy by then according to my Dad, but they were all hero’s to me as a kid back then.

Player far left Please, not a clue but I'm sure as soon as I'm told it will be as clear as crystal. By the way two cracking photos JSB, thank you for those.

Thanks BB, but I'm a liar it wasn't as clear as crystal, would never have got that. Strongly believe your right with John Short (trainer) background.

It is John Short.

David Webb, not Micky Droy

David Webb, not Micky Droy

I thought Webb initially but wasn't sure. Droy played in that game I think.

My early 80,s post match route , which the obligatory pit stop at The Friary

Great memory of The Friary from that era, possibly chips were a tad too greasy ? But what was the name of that small chippy up from The Howard and The Cossack?

Seem to recall great gravy. A lighter shade of brown, perfect consistency, clearly not packet made dark gloop and almost tangy ( but not heading towards Chinese chip shop style). I used to drink what was left from the corner of the plastic tray until our lass explained she expected more from our Saturday nights out...

Harlequin?

Bonetti, TC, Ron Harris, Eddie MaCreadie? Billy Dearden, Micky Droy?

I'm going to suggest it might be Alan Hudson instead of Micky Droy who I thought came a little bit later??? (though I'm probably wrong*). I reckon Hudson walked that way?

btw, I always liked Chelsea's kit in this era. When they had to change from white sox like against Leeds in the FA cup final replay or us on the above photo?, they wore yellow ones and changed their shorts to ones with a yellow stripe on them to match.

Nice touch

*ps - Yep, wrong again

Eddie McCreadie's daughter works in my local bank and , er , that's it.

Yes, he did.

Here's pictorial proof (not that it's needed Silent is enough) you were correct.
