    L to R back. Alan Jarvis, Andy Davidson captain, Mick Milner, Maurice Swan, Chris Simpkin, Mick Brown, Terry Heath.
    Front L to R. Ray Henderson, Ken Wagstaff, Chris Chilton, Ken Houghton, Ian Butler.
    All five forwards scored into double figures that season. Even the wingers scored eleven goals each.
    From memory I don't recall any of the back line scoring a league goal between them all season, Heath scored two in the FA Cup v Notts Forest and Simpkin one v Chelsea also in the FA Cup but the others?
    Missing from the line up is the regular left back for that season, Denis Butler, which is probably why Mick Brown is in the team photo. He was more famous for being a first team coach at Manchester United after his playing career then he was a first team player with us.

    If my memory serves me well, this team photo was probably taken before the Forest Cup game as I think Mick Brown played LB. It was either that or the Southampton cup game.

    Could be the Southampton game, John? Waggy didn't play against Forest (my first ever game at BP), he was injured - his replacement, Terry Heath, scored both goals.
