Just watched the highlights of the final. Could and perhaps should have ended up about 4-3. Certainly Joe Royle had a goal disallowed and I've no idea what for.
Funny to think that for such a talented team - Asa Hartford, Dave Watson, Peter Barnes, Dennis Tueart - that was the only trophy they ever won. Even more funny to think that for a team that largely consisted of local lads (Joe Corrigan, Mike Doyle, Barnes, Tommy Booth etc) the next time we would win that particular trophy we would do so without a single English player in the starting XI.
