    I think it's later than the 1972 match basing it on the crowd shown. That match had a gate of under 5,000, and looking at the stand, it looks as though the numbers would have been in the region of double that figure.

    I'm pretty sure that's Dave Booth and he left in 1972.

    Thanks so much for that!
    My grandad, uncle, dad and I are all on that picture - only me and my dad left now.

    1972/73 is the last time we had a white collar, red socks and no sponsor

    It's definitely the 1971/72 match. That's Frank Sharp taking the throw in, with David Booth stood next to him.
