Help needed to name players and staff

That team brings back some memories. I always felt sorry for Geoff Nulty; our fans never really disguised their dislike for the guy, and then Case went right through him with what was pretty much a career-ending tackle.
Somehow found myself along with me Dad and a mate in the Park End stand that day. It went off all over the ground after that tackle - never seen or experienced such vitriol within the crowd especially as 'sh*thouse ' simply turned and walked away after ending McNulty's career without a second glance. Horrible specimen.

As s/houses go, Case was up there as one of the biggest. 'Horrible Specimen' is an apt description.
 

Can't find that jigsaw on the net e bay or Amazon, so it may be worth a few quid looking at the posts the team members have been nailed as spot on, it is probably now out of manufacturing ...... so a nice thing to have for a collector etc
Good news and bad news.
The good news is I finished putting it together.

Looking at the photo you could probably guess the bad news :(
 
Yes, that is definitely the 78/79 squad, but the mystery is where is the Latch.
Dave Thomas had just left, and I have a feeling Bob was in contract dispute.
Latchford never left until the end of 81 Season just after HK arrived.
For the record, that is definitely Jim McGregor far right
That is definitely Pat Heard to his right, and for anyone saying they dont remember him, he is one of only two players in that picture to receive a winners medal from the old European cup days, when it was straight two league knock out.
Pat Heard left at the end of that season as part of the swap deal for John Gidman.
And by the way, thats me, middle row, third from the right.:):):)
