    Their best days were ahead of them, but not at that stadium. Bizarrely, they had two spells at Ground B, our fixture there was the first game of their return to the ground.

    That's us playing at ground B, probably in a change gold strip.


    Edit: Zooming in, we must be wearing the darker shirts. It wasn't unheard of to borrow the home clubs change strip in those days, but if that's the case, we'd probably be wearing red!

    I'm stumped! Although that looks like an athletics track...

    Another big clue for Ground B.

    Perilously close to being the last time Notts County ever won an away game, or anybody in that ground would live to hear of The Beatles.

    Ground A

    We went there as champions.

    October 1962, month of the Cuban Missile crisis and the release of The Beatles debut single.

    I reckon that's the White City Stadium. If so, we played QPR there in 1962/63 (won 1-0). I think it was also used in the 1966 World Cup.
