Never knew the referee only had one arm.

Not one fuckin' mention of Dave Ewing! You fuckin' bastards, Pathé!

I remember my dad telling me about Alf Bond when I was a kid. I presumed he'd lost an arm in the war but it was actually in an industrial accident when he was in his teens.
He had a newsagents shop - back in the days when refs were real human beings rather than pre-programmed cyborgs!

Ruined at the end with that sign, think I've found something worse than "Can I Have your Shirt?"



I still wince at that clip of Bert going in for the save after the earlier incident where he did his neck.

Our very own Bill Leivers is the last man standing from the 1956 Winners. He turned 92 on 29th of January.
