    My photos of the Valley clean up day should be in the museum archive, along with a poem describing the day that I composed to go with the images. 
    Would be great to have the poem.

    Excellent photos by the way CE.  Thanks.

    A guy I used to work with took a lot of photos that day. We were cleaning up the East Terrace. Ive lost touch with him but I think his brother probably reads CL. I wonder if he could supply some copies......RG if you're reading this maybe you could send in copies.

    The now defunct “Today” newspaper took pics of a few of us playing footy at the Jimmy Seed Stand end , thought I was gonna be in the paper but the pic was not used .

    Edit : The “Today” newspaper ran from Feb 1986 to Nov 1995 and also sponsored the Football League 1986/7
