8two: yes a good read, however it brings to mind the pictures of spaced out druggies on the streets of San Francisco and most major US cities which are posted by Russian bots on twitter.

biscot boy: I have a different view, as a person who grew up in Luton and started watching the team in 1955, we were then holding our own in the top division comfortably and had a fair number of well known international players. I found this article patronising.

shatter2: Just heard that Charlie Hurley has passed away. He was one of the first "star" players I remember playing at Kenilworth Road for opposition teams.RIP.

8two: Opposition players I can name that have stuck in my mind from the mid 1950's are few but Matthews, Finney, Charles and Shackleton are the first I recall.

shatter2: Saw Matthews playing for Stoke and Charles playing for Leeds or maybe Cardiff? Both towards the end of the careers.

biscot boy: Lofthouse, Quixall, Ivor Allchurch, Finney, Matthews, Eastham, Mc.Ilroy, Blanchflower, Broadbent were ast my early opposition recollections.

8two: Albert Quixall made all the national papers when he did ballet lessons and exercises as a help to his game and fitness and Blanchflower one of the first to train with the ball rather than general fitness.

shatter2: I can't get the image of Albert Quixhall in a tutu out of my mind! 😁
