Found this rather worn old press photo this afternoon - can anyone tell me who the teams are and the approximate year please. Diolch, Mark Thumbs Up

Could well be Newcastle Unt. Is that Jackie Milburn far right?

Definitely Fulham, who are defending, the keeper might be Ian Black, I don't think it's Tony Macedo - the bald defender back left is Eddie Lowe.

Attacking, if black & white it should be Newcastle. However, I wouldn't be sure it's black & white - it might be blue & white (Sheff Weds) or red & white (probably Sunderland). Not easy to tell if black or a colour.

Mid 50's?

I did think it was Fulham from the stand in the picture and the white/black strip but as to the opposition??? Many thanks for the help on this one. Mark Thumbs Up

This is the FA Cup 4th Rd Tie between Fulham v Newcastle United in 1956.

Fulham lost 5-4 after coming from 3-0 behind to lead 4-3

Ian Black is the Fulham Keeper conceding the first goal of the tie which was scored by Jackie Milburn (Not in Picture).

Tom Wilson is the full back for Fulham on the goal-line.

The Fulham defender far left is Gordon Brice and the other Fulham defender behind Vic Keeble (Newcastle) in the centre is Eddie Lowe.

Not 100% sure on the final Newcastle player far side but pretty sure its Reg Davies
