I think we played em two years before at Oakwell , an early game for a certain George Best I believe .

38k inside Oakwel that day , lost 3-0 , Charlton amongst the scorers .

Busby just starting to rebuild the team after Munich as you say Archie .

Very sad tragedy and 60 years ago this week , Mark Jones and Tommy Taylor both Barnsley lads killed that day .

They say Duncan Edwards was an unbelievable talent .

Golden Goal ticket sellers were young dolly birds ( is that allowed these days )

White jackets , golden sash , short white skirts and knee length white boots .

They seem to do a roaring trade for some reason given you'd next to no chance of pulling the ticket with the correct minute and second of the first goal .

£10 I think was the winnings , can't remember my old man winning anyroad and he bought one every week for years .
