Football. English League Division 1. Circa 1960. Manchester City v Blackpool. Manchester City's captain Bert Trautmann greets Blackpool's Jimmy Armfield in the centre circle of the pitch before the start of the match.

I understand Bert, Jimmy and the ref being in the centre circle.. but what the fucks Len Fairclough got to do with proceedings? Edit: Please ignore. Seems a few have already spotted this.

I don't like to be pedantic but that is Bobby Johnstone.

A bit random but does anyone have any pics of the north stand concourse?

Couldn't find any of the concourse, but not see this before.

Looks like a young Pete The Badge entering the club shop! Is that the back of Bernard Manning in the foreground talking to the bloke with the beard? :)

Does look like a relative of Ptb that or a young Pete himself!

Am I the only one who looked closely to see if I was on this one?
