Amazing how much has changed in 50 odd years. That programme seems like it’s from a completely different world. Different currency, ground, train company, businesses, print quality, etc. Rather sadly I find the adverts strangely fascinating… each one a little time capsule. I wonder what the next 50 years will have in store? Probably football on the fucking moon.

The OP makes reference to playing Crusaders, however the attached programme shows the opposition as Linfield. We did play Linfield in the ECWC, I have no memory of playing Crusaders in that competition. As far as I am aware Linfield and Crusaders are 2 separate teams in Northern Ireland.

I was about to post similar: the adverts are by far the most interesting part of old programmes and magazines.Amazing how much has changed in 50 odd years.

I picked up my brother-in-law from Piccadilly last night. Bloody train stuck at Stockport for an hour and finally arrived by minibus an hour and a bit late. Train might have been shifted by now. But he presented me with a West Ham shirt! The good news is that it's ZABALETA 5! I shall wear it tomorrow night at the Women v Bristol game!
