    This is from cameras in the charging station where the Tesla was on charge. It's a few feet down from the road. The Range Rover demolished the barrier, bounced off the Tesla's roof, went over a wall into Park Royal tube station and ended up on the track. Seems it started at more than 100 mph. As you say....a miracle that anyone survived.

    Why is a superannuated Gareth Bale wearing a Spurs kit in an anime?

    The replies seem convinced that the opponent is West Brom and I think they're right.
    It would be a few years after this picture from 1919/20 and the kits look very similar:

    Could be Huddersfield ? They were the champions of that era.

    We didn't play Huddersfield at home in 1924.
    The 23/24 game was on Christmas Day with the reverse fixture on Boxing Day! <laugh>
    The 24/25 game was in March.

    Huddersfield won the title in both seasons, of course, plus the next one.

    Good job I didn't mention my other reason for thinking it's not them, then.
    The central stripe is on that kit is white and I think there's was blue! <laugh>

    Stoke were in the old Division 2 and we only played Palace in the FA Cup that year. <whistle>

    Actually 3 of the shirts in that photo have a white middle stripe. Hand made in those days so variations did occur.

    1. At 0:10, is that the Shelf side (Willoughby Ave) ??

    From the old WHL players tunnel (bottom left Park Lane) ,
    I assume so, but I never knew there were once houses there.


    2. Seeing the ad boards there, when did the club finally stop
    selling Bovril as a match beverage ?? :)

    Q. Who was the the last British manager to win the English league title who wasn’t from the north of England or Scotland?
