I picked up a Luton Town v Gib single sheet issue from 1969, does anyone know of any other games they played at the time? Brighton & Hove Albion rings a bell.

Any other examples of Gibraltar or Gibraltar clubs playing in the UK? I have Stourbridge v Glacis United 74/75.

Gibraltar also played at Scarborough and Goole in November 1974 on what (in the Matlock programme) is described as their "first official visit to England".

Hope this helps further.

Found something on the net that suggests 11th November 1975? Matlock Town won 6-0.

The programme is unfortunately not dated, but it advertises next fixture for 15 November so 11 November sounds about right.

So the 1969/70 Tour seems to have been games against Luton Town, Brentford and Brighton & Hove Albion

1975/76 Tour against Matlock Town, Scarborough and Goole Town.

Also Glacis United played games in 1974/75, one of which was against Stourbridge.

Anymore?

Tynie, was just catching up on this and the tour is November 1974 NOT 1975. The programme from the Matlock game definitely says 1974-75 but sadly no date.

Strange! I'll try and find what I found earlier, it seemed to be some form of history of Matlock town and reproduced the match report, which defo said Nov 1975!
