Great news Brian for your massive collection .......to add another photo to it made up for you .....
That's the beauty of football. Everyone has a view, the last game against Villa someone voted for LucasMate, I think you're selling him a bit short there...anybody who stood in for Ball (P1...W1); Kendall (P6...W5 D1); and Harvey (P8...W5, L3) - 2 of those losses were the Sandy Brown Derby and the FA Cup Vs Sheffield U. and everybody had off days in those two...deserves a bit more credit

Digne as MotM. I realise that I may have been a little unkind to Tommy Jackson and after all it is 50 years
ago, maybe my memory is not as good as yours on this subject, the only thing I am certain of is: That
I would never have chosen him in my first 11, hence a good 12th man. I also know that Harry the Catt
knew more than I'll ever know.
Nah mate sorry, total *sounds like things you put oars in on a rowing boat*.No it was our choice it was the start of playing cup games if possible in white right up to 1966.....
My older brother was there yes there was bewilderment in why we ran pout in an all white kit - yest as I stated we carried that on in cup copetitions even in 1966 -Nah mate sorry, total *sounds like things you put oars in on a rowing boat*.
If not, why didn't anybody know about it prior, there was not 1 person in a 1000 who didn't go...wtf, when we came out in white

At home -
5th March 1966 Fred Pickering adds the third against Coventry after Alex Scott had turned the ball back to him, playing in our white kit at home ....

Did every team do that?Home team changes
QED
Knowing The Catt I meant lolDid every team do that?
Knowing the fatty he just wanted to use that kit ......to not let it go to waste .......2nd kits were not the norm in those days...
I've been away checking cup progammes.Knowing The Catt I meant lol
Its weird My brother reckoned that Milan game the whole blues crowd were shocked when we ran out in that white kit - but it was used in cup completions afterwards - City always changed into that striped kit at Goodson even though they played in sky blue as did Coventry I think ....I've been away checking cup progammes.
Sometimes both teams changed, like City in the 6th round, they played in Maroon we played in white and black.
But for the replay we were in white and they were in red.
Yet the season before Vs Wednesday they mustve been happy to play in their normal 2nd strip of white...like league games and the 66 final - where iirc, we won the toss to decide as it was at a neutral venue.
Confused?
Me too.
But I do remember reading after the Milan game when the white shirts was queried that this was the Euro norm and for the away leg they changed.
From what I've read on here shouldn't that read no money given giving all the bunking in and such lol
The amount of times I stood at a turnstile & two kids would get lifted over to their mate on the other side in the ground - every one laughed - never a problem the guy obviously knew the gate man well - lolFrom what I've read on here shouldn't that read no money given giving all the bunking in and such lol
