I post this as I feel it to be of interest to those who remember it, and those who have heard about it down the years. The guilty parties were Cherry, Ellam, Lawson and Worthington.

Lost in the mists of time, but proof that it went on 50 years ago. Not just in present era.

Long time ago, but I'm sure Ellams first game for Beeston was a 4-0 defeat at Chelsea.

The first 'Town shirt' I ever got was like the one Cherry is wearing there. I don't think they made official replicas back then, I suspect my mum just spotted it on the market. It had no badge, etc. on it, although I notice neither do they. It would have been around 1972/3 time & it had a blue collar. I remember all my mates taking the mick saying that it wasn't a Town shirt because theirs had a white collar & cuffs. I was made up when I found a photo of someone wearing one like mine & remember parading it around!

Given the amount of money being thrown at professional footballers nowadays those lads must curse the fact that they were born too soon.

The board should have let Ian Greaves sign Alan Gowling when we were in div 1 and wouldn't have gone down. IMO

Frank probably needed the money for his condom supply.
