….i’d think that’s v Forest, Henry Newton, Terry Hennessy and maybe Ian Storey-Moore in pic.
 
….seem to remember that Forest team knocking us out of the FA Cup around that time with Storey-Moore grabbing a hat-trick.
Yes that was away & we were missing Joe Royle & Westy.... our defence went to bits that day after being ahead - at home we seemed to win if my memory serves me correct in that golden era of the Trinity
 
Which season have goalkeepers started to have numbers in the back? Or have I just been missing something
Goalkeepers began to wear numbers on their backs regularly in the 1939-40 season, when the Football League in England officially decreed that all players (including goalkeepers) must wear numbers 1 to 11.outbreak of WWII, leading to the full, stable introduction in the 1946-47 season after the war...

Intresting! How come when I see a pic of Westy from the back angle I dont see any numbers? Trying to make a replica so Im very focused on the details haha
