cidered abroad Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Back row Jantzen Derrick, John Galley, Jack Connor, Mike Gibson, Gordon Parr, Alec Briggs, Terry Bush. Front row Trevor Jacobs, Chris Garland, Gerry Sharpe, Bobby Kellard, Ken Wimshurst PS. When I've finished dinner, I'll try to work out where the photo was taken as I believe it isn't Ashton Gate.

Trevor Jacobs looks a bit of a "dish," if a dark and moody one.Terry Bush, too; very chiselled. Better looking than Rovers, better turnt out, better all round. Up the City!

About 10 years before I was old enough to watch but looking at Terry Bush, he doesn’t look like someone you want to go in on a 50/50 with ! He’s a unit !

Hillzider, that seems spot on to me as that was the eleven that started the away game at PNE on 16 November 1968 with Jantzen as sub who replaced Alec Briggs. During the next week, we signed Alan Skirton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slartibartfast Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Deffo PNE and we won 1-0 can't remember who scored, probably Galley ! edit..... although it could have been year earlier 68-69 in which we lost 1-0 team didn't change hardly at all during that period edit to edit............no must have been 68 as we signed BTR's avitar in 69 from Boro !

John Galley was the East Ends main man! There's a picture somewhere out there of him walking towards the East End, arms held high, big grin on his face, milking our applause after scoring another great goal. Magic moments!

The stand before the Dolman was small and wooden. It would look good at the Memorial Ground.

He really was special, his signing from Rotherham saved us from relegation in his first season when I think he scored 22 goals in about the same number of games. City really worked for him and he scored 84 goals in 172 appearances, a ratio wildly above what he achieved across his whole career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downendcity Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 None of them went down like a sack of spuds under the slightest touch from a defender. Can remember them dishing out a fair few crunching tackles on the opposition though - but that was in the days when tackling was allowed. The OP said "what a team", yet, if memory serves me correctly, it was a round that time that we were perennial strugglers against relegation.

PHILINFRANCE Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 16 hours ago, swampy said: Can name them all despite being an old git these days!! and not one tattoo!! I got them all, apart from Bobby Kellard - I seem to remember him as a lot stockier with longer, even curly hair, or was that, perhaps, Johnny Quigley? Quite surprising I failed to recognise him, as he was always one of my favourite players. I remember one match when he had been pulled up for a foul in the corner between the Dolman and what was then the Open End. He trotted off, ostensibly to retrieve the ball for his opponent, only to trot back, without the ball, and present said opponent with a few blades of grass.

bcfcredandwhite Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 No tattoos - and no bentleys or Range Rovers in the car park either (ok the Range Rover didn’t exist in 1968) Was that the last time we actually beat Preston at Deepdale?!!!!!
