Wrexham’s Oldest Footage ?

It was 10 years or so later that the great Kevin Keelan could kick it the whole length of the pitch if he so wished. (The ball had also eveoled at that point.)

Heading that heavy ball as we now know, must have caused many unknown problems in later years to those players.

The 'Wembley' Tee panel laced size 5 ball. Used so coating had worn off and soaked through!
when miss timing a header -ouch.
