Oh Yes , Probably the funniest and most unlikely goal ever seen at Selhurst.

Although nearly 50 years ago, I have more vivid memories of the team around him.

McCormick, Blyth, Kember and Jacko particularly.

Sewell, as I recall, was always the quiet man, but I guess that the late Bert Head gave him the captaincy for good reason.

And that, dear friends, is why I didn't even make it as a programme seller, never mind manager!

Got an idea that his goal against Leeds became the opening sequence for the Big Match the following season. If I remember correctly ,the opening sequence for that programme the season he scored the goal was the 5 goal drubbing at Selhurst by Arsenal,which was painful enough on the day, let alone having to see it week in week out on tv.
Happy days though.

Many Happy Returns to "Shovel".
He must be in his late 70s now.

Yes I remember that goal against Leeds ! I was right behind it in the 'Holmesdale'.

No. I was right behind 'if' or "him" in the whitehorse.
