Before my time and my dad can't remember all of the team

something like this ??

Williams ?

Davidson ???? ????? Dennis Butler ??
Henderson Houghton Simpkin or Jarvis ? Butler

Waggy Chilton

Anybody know the rest ? I thought I could find it on the net but had no luck !
I know the team didn't change much over the season.

Cheers !

How many of that team were playing in 1970/71 when we played Stoke in the FA cup ?
I was watching the highlights of you tube !
 
FA Cup QF v. Stoke team at a guess.
McKechnie
Banks, Neill, Wilkinson, DeVries
Simmo, Houghton, ??????

I can't recall who was the regular substitute (unless this was before subs were invented)

Substitutes were introduced around 1966/67 - I seem to recall Ray Henderson coming on and scoring the winner against Brighton in a 2-1 win at their place. I thought at the time that he was possibly the first ever substitute to score in the league (but apparently not!).
I can't remember who he actually came on for - possibly Billy Wilkinson but I'm not at all certain.

Didn't we play Chelsea in the 1966 FA cup quarter final - fantastic last minute equaliser by Waggy at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea had already knocked out Manchester United and Leeds in earlier rounds? It was a great day out. Home replay was on General Election night and forty thousand plus of us crammed into Boothferry Park but we lost 3-1, our goal was a 25 yard shot by Chris Simpkin. You can still see the highlights on YouTube in glorious black and white.
