Old style floodlights.

Getting back on the coach at away matches in time for James Alexander Gordon reading the results.

It's not the despair, it's the hope I can't stand!

Snow covered pitches with orange ball
Half time scores on letters boards
Smell of pipe tobacco

Never asked for years, but is Bovril not on the menu any more?

Cheap standing tickets.
Only 1 substitute.
Goal keepers being able to take back passes.
Off side rule as it was, ie if one is off side, one is off side!
Jimmy Hill and Brian Moore.
FA Cup being really important.
Brian Clough!
Liam Brady.
Ron Atkinson.
The odd streaker! - with a preference for a lady steaker, although men streakers were funny too!
Manchester United being in the old 2nd Division!
Allan Ball (Blackpool) winning the World Cup in 1966. Was he with Everton by then, I cannot remember. He had real energy though, I remember that.

There is a few to chew on!

Alan Ball was definitely a Blackpool player when we won the World Cup.

The fact is that since that Final, no player registered with Blackpool has worn a full England shirt.

That explains the 48 years of hurt in a nutshell. Pick Blackpool players and England will prosper.



To add to the original topic

Cough candy sellers outside the ground.
Silk scarves tied to wrists

Think we cashed in on Ball shortly after the final.

I actually miss the fact you can have a half time ciggie - surely Blackpool should allow that back bearing in mind the stress we're under!!

Poll: Will a points deduction by FL be this or next season?
