19th February 1966 Brian Labone heads home during a 1-1 draw at Burnley rare as I think he only ever scored for us twice -
12th March 1966 Fred Pickering scores the only goal during a 1-0 victory away to Arsenal -
5th April 1966 Fred Pickering hammers a twenty-yard shot past Harry Dowd and into the net via the underside of the Man City crossbar to score the second in the FA Cup Second !/4 final Replay, played at Wolverhampton -
They took the wires out in1960-61, if they had gone on to the hot water pipes by then, it didnt work that well.
We played a league game on 15th Dec then none at home until 23rd Feb.
