Goalkeepers without gloves on! I don't know whether I ever saw the great Gibbo wearing gloves - in that era, goalies only ever seemed to wear them when it was bitterly cold. Can't recall Cashley wearing them often either. These days, keepers even wear gloves for the team photo!

Goalkeepers without a number on the back of their shirt. Teams were numbered 2-11 and the numbers reflected the position the player played in eg 2 = Right Back, 3 = Left Back etc

(As an aside, I think I'm right to say that in that time (1960/70's) keepers were only allowed to wear yellow jerseys in international matches but not league or cup games. Anyone able to back that up?).
