Leveller Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 OK, it’s only a minor curiosity. However, I’ve just watched the recent ITV documentary on one of my heroes Jimmy Greaves. Showing his league debut for Chelsea in 1957, footage of the players running out revealed one Alan Dicks a couple of places in front of him - they were in the same starting lineup. Its a funny old game. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
