    A pleasure to welcome Keith , his wife and friends to the museum today. While watching the centenary DVD he told us that back in the 60's the players received ' crowd money '. On top of their weekly wage  ( approx £25 a week ) , appearance and win bonus they received £1 for every 1,000 over a 10,000 attendance. He used to tell the wife ' Don't watch the football , count the crowd '
    Another reason why crowds were regularly understated.

    Shame we weren't allowed in by the stewards at 12.45pm because some Johnny come Lately was being shown round the museum.

    Stewards have been a real pain in recent weeks.
