A pre-season ITV interview with Tommy from the same pre-season has been knocking around for a while but this one is from the BBC and includes the bizarre sight of sheep grazing on the pitch. Tommy mentions that the club's aim is to be back in the top flight by 1962. The first half of the video is focussed on Fword and you can see their new East stand being constructed (which only lasted until 1979)

The youtube channel has tonnes of BBC material from the late 1950s into the early 1960s, pre-MOTD era when it was "Sports Special" on a Saturday night with Cliff Michelmore (Tonight and later Holiday 7? fame) among the commentators.

Some great stuff there. Thanks for the link. Particularly enjoyed Alf Ramsey talking about how to take a penalty.
I do wonder how heavyroller got access to the stuff and also wonder if the BBC footage of Notts v Bath City in the FA Cup from December 1959 is available. It was the second game I attended at Meadow Lane with my dad. I was 9 years old and Notts lost 1-0. It was televised on BBC that evening. One of the many humiliations in the cup that Notts have suffered over the years. Sigh.
