Here's one for the old timers. Does anyone remember a winger called Peter Knight who played a few games during the famous div.4 promotion season (1964-1965) ? I think he was pulled out of Wednesday afternoon football in Preston Park (Post Office or Coop teams played there on early closing day)...
I seem to remember the Darlo game was on a Monday night. Waited apprehensively all day before catching the bus to the match. Electric atmosphere. 31000 for a Div 4 match was unheard of. The first goal was our hundredth for the season, the majority scored at home. I saw all but 5 of them - missed...
Halifax Town. 1963 Big Freeze. The only game staged that day and it was shown on BBC that night (no MOTD then) I'm probably one of the schoolkids who helped to clear the snow off the pitch before the start. We lost 1-0 !!!
