Re: Blast from the past
Bit before my time - my first memory was teams including Eddie May - as a kid I thought he was actually a real giant who had climbed down the beanstalk just to play for us ! lol
Here we go. Back row - left to right Gareth Salisbury Elfed Morris Kevin Keelan Alan Fox Reg Holland Tecwyn Lloyd - Jones Centre row - left to right Jack Jones (trainer) Mike Metcalf Peter Jones Roy Ambler Ron Barnes Clive Colbridge Aly McGowan Front row - left to right Ron Roberts Ernie Phythian Ken Barnes (player / manager) Tommy Anderson Brian Whitehouse Confirmed as the Wrexham squad that won promotion to the Third Division in 1962.

When's the last time we saw an out and out winger hogging the touchline, running any distance with the ball and taking on and passing a defender or two before either cutting infield or putting a proper cross in - doesn't seem to happen in the modern game. I have fond memories of Bobby Shinton but particularly the late Steve Fox. Nowadays we or rather most teams seem content to stop the ball and go sideways or backwards - nobody seems to want to take a risk for fear of losing possession. Not a fan of Manchester United but give me a George Best any day. |
