Bob Latchford & Ken McNaught, training on the beach near Southport in the mid-1970s our favourite place for keeping the players fit going way back to the Catterick era - The players were not fond of it -
A top class left-winger - hard as nails - classy too deceptively fast with a pinpoint cross - The Catt named him the safety valve for the Holy trinity - for @Dario Terracotta & co -
Bally - performances in the 1966 World Cup winning England team attracted the attention of a number of clubs bigger than Blackpool. He was eventually sold to Everton for a fee of £112,000 in August 1966, at the time a record transfer fee paid to an English club - The Catt stated he would never accept £500,000 9 months after the 1970 World Cup he sold him for £220,000????? -
Mr dependable Sandy Brown - played most positions, even in goal before substitutes were introduced -
Sandy leaves the Burden Park pitch knowing, even after a goal line clearance by him for the blues, knowing Ray Wilson would be recalled back to the side for the 1966 FA CUP final -
Sandy letting Ian ST John he was around -
Sandy showing his prowess to outjump Gordon Milne in the 1966 Derby to score a cracking header to make it 3-1 after bally had scored Two - he is only remembered for that awful headed own goal in the Derby in the 3-0 defeat -
