George Monks still makes the annual trip to Wembley for the final! I see him every year down there with the Judes lads.

The lad 2nd from left back row looks a lot like Malcolm Swann but I think the date would have to be out by a few years

Its definitely Phil Eastham or I've been mates with an imposter for the last 45 years !

Tom Bibby became a well known businessman in contract cleaning...sadly no longer with us.
