    I was there but can’t see myself.
    I climbed into the seats to demonstrate closer to the director’s box, so am probably there.

    is the only black fella there a young Norm?  I don't think so, but we didn't have many black or Asian fans back then to say the least?

    I was there or there abouts but cant see my lovely flowing locks.

    Henry let’s see some more please if you have them. I already have the photo of the side terrace by the covered end as my screen saver and have found myself and my mate who i still sit with on it.
    There was a black fella who used to run with the B-Mob early 80s……don’t think it him though.

    I was there with my Dad and brother and I remember a WPC goading some fans until they decided to all pile onto the pitch.

    I’m on the pitch with my late dad and a good mate who still goes but we are not in that photo.
    My dad dug up and took some turf home with him and planted it in his back garden in Wolfe Crescent close to the Valley

    Photo by Tom Morris, of course.

    @redlanered has been digitising Tom's negatives from the 1985/86 season (40 years ago!) for the museum and this one stood out.  

    Will  more if people want to see them.
    Go on then,it would be good seeing those young faces again.
