    Frame the third one. A John Parsons rarity.

    Who got the second with the distance shot? I didn't hear the commentator name him.

    Well certainly a mystery as recorded as an own goal <doh> To me I think it was Leighton Phillips?

    The records say it was a Cec Irwin own goal but I think it was Gary Bell’s shot.

    Just come across this from the ‘Football in the Seventies and Eighties’ site.

    Some good old clubs on there.

    I see Reading we’re called the ‘Biscuit men’ which is what I called them when I lived there as the town was the home to Huntley and Palmers. Much prefer this to ‘The Royals’
