Fascinating photos. Got really excited whilst paging down... FA Cup Semi Final... Wolverhampton Wanderers.... I was hoping it would have been the 1921 Replay against Cardiff City, but it was Grimsby Town.

1972, Mick Channon scoring for England U-23s against Scotland at the Baseball Ground.

Does look like there are two footballs in the net, though.

Amazing how often the papers did that. They'd have displayed that photo probably to about the I in "WITH" so had to stick another ball nearer the action. Did wonders for Spot The Ball.

This is just a copy of the actual programme from this Baseball Match played at Griffin Park in 1923. The orginal was 'raffled' at a programme meeting about 20 years ago! So it is in a Brentford Supporters Collection, just not mine!!
