It's good to see the police dealed with those over-excited fans effectively - that's a weight off my mind.

Ah Beaney, as you can see, it was "The Police" who dealt with those "over excited fans", NOT Stewards , maybe some of them had borrowed Vern's or Billy's hip flask lol

I am told teh book covers the whole season 69-70 - the histories (recent to that point) of both teams - players - fans - grounds etc eventually drawing them closer together for the match itself..... The cup run Brief history of SUFC and Leeds The sixties football scene from Isthmian to the First division A chapter on Sid and Don Revie and one on Ted and Billy Bremner How Sutton got there comparing it with what Leeds were doing at the same time The build up to the match The match itself and the memories of some of the players involved and then what happened after The rest of the season.... Where are they now

Enjoyed the News Reel.......I had forgotten how many Elm Trees littered the Ground, Especially on the terraces!!!!!. Don Revie up to his usual match antics complained about everything....quality of the pitch safety of his players etc, if my memory serves me right did not stop for a Cup of tea after the game......on the coach and gone, in Revies words Job done.
Billy enjoy the cruise . could be the first of many.

I would like a copy please. BTW Billy cruises are not just for old farts now so expect some young whipper snappers clogging up the bars and deckchairs. Is Vern going with you? If so please let him know that no beer is allowed on deck LOL PS don't forget the DJ and Sutton Shirt. You could always post your pics when you return. Bon Voyage

Copenhagen is brilliant. Although I have a feeling I liked it for entirely different reasons to you Billy. ;D
