Thunder thighs Mike Harrison and Duggie, early 1960s

From another site and possibly AI generated but a good image nonetheless

Note the spectators wearing ties

I remember seeing that photo years before AI Jim. I think it’s from a game against Bury in late 1966. Harrison was built like a light heavyweight but he wasn’t a fan of the rough stuff. He was seriously rapid in a straight line and had a shot like a rocket.  Possibly the best penalty taker we’ve had. He could side foot the ball harder than I could blast it. Some power in those thighs.  If it is that game we won 2-0 - Connelly and Harrison with a pen the scorers.
I still think that kit is my favourite. The first one I ever had.
