It would seem the 1980s wasn't the first time we were denied entry to European competition because of our neighbours (though for completely different reasons). Catterick getting stick for being too 'nice' about it (there's an Everton theme there...)
No date on this but I think going from the text about FA Cup and European appearances of the time it's from the home game against Newcastle on 14 April 1969 (we drew 1-1, Jimmy Husband scored for us)
We lost the FA Cup semi to Man City (referred to) who went on to beat Leicester 1-0 in the final.
Love the index for the half-time scores on the left and the advert for Ford workers - 8s 9.5d per hour (about 43p per hour) after 4 weeks for a 40 hour week.
