I was taking up some old lino today when I found the back page of the Argus from FA Cup Final day 1950.

It carried a report of an Albion friendly against Hearts at The Goldstone from the previous evening. The game ended 1-1, but the interesting thing was that the reporter (unnamed) referred to the crowd as "10,000 critics."

Nothing much changes, it seems ...

The computer product akin to FLM was in its infancy then, a few playing cards and a few dice but still produced the same level of expertise from the masses.

Sack 'em all.

I found a massive stack of late 60's early 70's porn (30 years old) when I removed the side panel from the bath.
