PENALTY.................

Definitely! Springett missed the ball and took Young's legs. I was in the scoreboard end, dead centre, half way up, and could see that clearly.

The Cannon ball kid in full flight -

I notice a sectioning fencing running down Gwladys St in this photo. What was that for? I began watching in 1961 and only remember it running down to the end of the ledge that demarcated the Boys Pen.

Yes it became a lot smaller than that in the 1960's it did become caged pen! It never looked like that good spot!

Yes it was a nailed on pen - but the day got even better!

Just before or just after the penalty appeal we also scored a perfectly good goal that was chalked off for offside.

I meant the great fight back from 2-0 down it made it so sweet!

The Cannon ball kid in full flight -
I know it is such a major issue for us that the stadium issue has to be sorted but it is ace in my opinion to be able to see photos like this one where the key elements of the stadium are instantly recognisable as ours and so similar to what it is like today, so many years later.
