I thought that at first, but he would only have been 15.

Players who played for the first team that season and weren't in that match that I haven't ruled out included Keith Masefield , Frank Pimblett, Bobby McDonald & John Overton.

I don't think it's Bobby McDonald but this picture might help http://www.dijitalimaj.com/alamyDetail.aspx?img=%7B48233F7D-14F7-4006-8AF4-DD212EB9E356%7D

Never mind the blanket, never mind who was sat next to A*** G***.  How about Brian's goal, and is there more footage of that era available to post up?
