YupFirst match with the new stand open. 1-1 I think.
I had the honour of getting changed in the Pavilion before i played in a match at BL - It was the supporters club u15 final in 1974 (could have been 75) played before the last game of the season V QPR (1-1 I think) . We lost 3-0 to Eckington but I'm dammed sure they had some over age ringers in their team - either that or we were crap.View attachment 161088

A lot of our members won't have a clue who Acker Bilk was, nor what a great jazz musician he was. Probably won't even have heard his signature tune, Stanger on the Shore.
Soulful, even heart-rending tune performed on one of the most underrated of the woodwind instrument family.
One of the most versatile instruments in the band when in the hands of a maestro such as Acker Bilk or Glen Miller.
Beautiful.
I was there and it has to be said that Chelsea did everything they could to give us a result but even then we couldn’t take advantage of it .
Birch ran around all afternoon giving us cheap free kicks and a possible penalty and Peter Osgood ( what a player ) looked distinctly embarrassed to have to tap the ball in after a series of defensive fuck ups .
Just another character building experience in the life of being a Blades supporter .
I know he did, I was a bit clumsy as I was referring to his use of the clarinet in the band to create his unique sound.Glen Miller played the trombone.View attachment 161277
Artie Shaw was the clarinetist, band leader.View attachment 161278
