    Magnificent.  So many differences to the modern game.

    I hadn't noticed before that Jack Shreeve (I think it's him) seems to be carrying an injury.  Take a look around 2.52.  Either that or he was a bit of a lumbering lump (but with an FA Cup winners medal).

    I wasn’t  born at the time….,,,not until January 48, thus giving me the satisfaction that in my lifetime, of being alive whilst we were FA Cup holders.
    Not a lot of people know that.🙄
