Great photo, thanks for posting.

Didn’t realise Keith Bradley was so tall.

Also like the attention to player welfare even in those days-‘ Lads, if you have to kneel make sure it isn’t onto the cold concrete- use a boot or training shoe as a buffer’.

Great photo, but where's the great Charlie Aitken?

The Doc's turns 90 next year.

It was an incredible couple of years.  To be relegated, having started the season as clear favourites to be promoted, was really quite something.
