    If we don't know about it. How can it clearly have gone on ?

    There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.

    Nope - no such thing as unknown knowns

    I think that’s film of the FA Cup replay in February 1960. Look at the scorers - Dobing 2 and Dougan 1. We won 3-0 away after drawing 1-1 at home with a last gasp Mick McGrath goal. Incidentally the gate for the home game was 51, 223 ! Most of the male population of Blackburn !
     

    Team for the home game - 

    Leyland

    Bray, Whelan

    Clayton, Woods, McGrath

    Douglas, Dobing, Dougan, Vernon, McCleod.

    For the away game Bimpson played in place of Douglas and Douglas played in place of Vernon. Vernon must have been on his way to Everton between the games.

    I love hearing people talking about this era - I can tell that you’re being transported back into that moment

    Had you seen the photo before or could you just remember them all?

    I’ve found a copy with the caption on it and you’re 100% correct!

    This is the link - https://www.theguardian.com/sport/gallery/2020/oct/03/graffiti-fishing-and-mr-whippy-unseen-photographs-from-footballs-yesteryear

    I’ll stop going off topic now!
