In many ways, much simpler times.

In other ways, not so much

Different expectations. Or not many really.

Football has changed, knocking out Doncaster away to draw Arsenal at the Vetch. Now how many times have we played them.

Different views to games now. We've achieved so much, but so much bad taste.
A bit of a squash on the North Bank for the Arsenal game. One of the few programmes I kept from around that time.

Yes definitely a game where you stayed where you were as no way would you get back there
 
Just went to look through my programmes for the Arsenal one and came across this one too.

I know I've still got the Arsenal programme in a box. Most likely got the Oxford one as well. Looking at that Oxford programme and advert that triggers the memory. Around that time did we have a centre half Doug Rosser?
 
Yes, Doug played for us during this time, but not in this game.

Thanks

Maybe Phil should have an extra board

All our yesterday's

To think we could have beaten Arsenal in 68 and Leeds in 70 with a touch more luck.

And then we lost to Margate...
