    That’s the same stage as Mike Norris and Aslewood stood on during that Demo in 86.

    Tom Morris has the date as 1986 but that doesn't seem to tally with the players present.

    Will a guess it was 85. Was a toss up between that and 86

    I think this would be Christmas 1985. I was there as one of the first Junior Reds, having joined up at the start of the season we left The Valley.

    Agreed. I reckon most if not all those pictured were still with us by the end of 86, yet none of our signings from 86 are present. Melrose, Walsh, Peake, Bolder or Shirtliff to name a few.

    Definitely 85 as Flan, Lange and Friar all left that summer. And Jimmy Hill only chaired the q&a one year, the years after were done by Lennie.

    Have the photo somewhere in the loft 

    I won tickets for a game in the directors box v Brighton midweek 2-2 draw from memory

    My memory as a 7 year old is vague but seem to recall all my family thinking Jimmy Hill was a bit of a prick 😂
