Old photos.
A dude on a different forum is collecting old BFC photos and offered us this one from the homecoming of the 1947 FA Cup Final which we lost 1-0 to Charlton Athletic...

You can see a couple of rattles near to the coach door, you really didn't want to be standing near to one of them on the Longside. There were some cheap, flimsy ones, no problem, but the ex WD ones could burst your eardrums.

The "politics free" banter on here really is a joy to behold. Hallelujah!

I can believe it Alfie, a group of us stood on the Longside and if it started getting a bit crowded around us my mate got his ExWD rattle out and gave it 30 seconds, never failed, we always had a bit more space after that.
