Barnsley v Albion 1912 FA Cup final

Fancy using a Barnsley fan's link instead of mine!
To be fair his is better, mine merely shows match action.
Goalies were crap back then weren't they? No thought of coming off their line whilst play was in the other half or to narrow angles.

Would you come off your line with 5...yes five forwards bearing down on you all willing to smash you into the net with the ball....:)

Exactly Mick, and Im sure that was Stroller in the crowd there somewhere, wearing a cap obviously. lol
Its odd that we as a club can say we won the FA cup that year in 1912, which is also the year of the famous Titanic ship disaster.
I wish we could be linked with a more nicer piece of history. ;)
