Player Valuation: £750k
I’ve never seen that photo before. It will be at Charlton when we won 4-3. Whoever won the game went up. Charlton had champagne on ice waiting to celebrate their promotion. They sent it around to the Rovers dressing room after the game. A great sporting gesture.
Ex Evertonian Harry Leyland on the left, ex Evertonian Matt Woods behind Roy Vernon. Wigan benefactor Dave Whelan stood on the left of Bryan Douglas.
Players l-r - Leyland, Douglas, Whelan, Eckersley, McGrath ( at the back, no shirt ) Clayton, MacCleod ( future Scotland manager ), Dobing, Vernon, Woods, Johnston.

Few years back I went to a evening with Bob Latchford & regarding the £30000 he received
From the daily express by the time he shared the prize money with team members & payed tax
He ended up with less prize money than the team players

£30,000 in 1978 is the equivalent in today's money of £167,546 so it was quite a good prize amountHe shared it all out, amongst the team 30 grand - then the Taxman cometh - it took him an age to sort it out
Back in the day
The players get that a week nowadays plus more than £167,546 per week they pay tax but - it was a prize if you won the pools - Spot the ball now the lottery it's tax free.....
Big Joe cleans his own boots -
