42 years ago...

Tommy Docherty's Blue and White Army

A great first half of the season...

Clive Allen and Paul Goddard scoring. (Now THAT is youth development!)

Woods
Elsey Howe Roeder Gillard
Shanks MCreery
Goddard Hamilton Neal Allen

Stan Bowles left out

Tony Currie injured
And before Docherty went out and bought Bob Hazell AND Steve Wicks...Steve Burke AND Gordon Hill
Garry Waddock on cusp of his debut...
