Was this the game when norman Gall got sent off and was fighting a fan?

now this was before my time.

Also I note 'dales colours as black & white, always thought they were a blue team.

At what point did matchday programmes stop listing teams in the rather far-out 2-3-5 formation?

All I have is:- First game at Spotland after the new year January 1965, again don't know the score! Albion were 4th in the league with Tranmere 1st, Bradford,2nd, York city 3rd

PS The official programme was 3"X4" priced at 6d. !

We didn't play them in Jan 65

Would it have been 22 March 65?
Ended 2-2 (Goodchild & Collins)

It was THE formation for many years, certainly still going strong early sixties.

I suppose the Jan game could have fallen foul to the weather.

This is the way proper football is played! They all had proper names that described their jobs on the pitch as well. They all got paid more money than me, but about the same as my Dad. Youngsters of today...Bah Humbug.
