No, we have to name the crowd too.
There 7-8 faces there, we must know some of them.

I was a mere pup and was probably still sitting in there with my grandad at the time but I don’t recognise anyone.
Was the guy to the left of Deano surnamed Saul?
Geoff Saul I believe...used to do a lot of work on the ground as I recall
Can't say I remember any of them. Possibly the old chap on the left. I suspect some are no longer with us.

I used to sit next to an old bloke with one leg who'd been at Dunkirk (I don't know where the other leg had been...) Can't remember his name though.
And I sat in front of Eric and Madge Gill who sponsored Malcolm for donkey's years.

Great photo. I love looking back at old team photos! Can we have more?!

I can recognise two and could probably guess at another two...

Guessing the year would have been 85/86?

The 2 photos under discussion here are from around the time of the 1988 Gainsborough match.

So it WAS Harry as I thought. Who did you think I thought it was Chas?

Yes, that’s the bloke.

I remember a cartoon of players and supporters from the 1950s or so that someone put up and he appeared in that.
