Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur league match at Maine Road, Saturday 9th December 1967.
Final score Manchester City 4 Tottenham 1
That is an absolutely sublime photograph. It says "This was what football was like in the 1960s" in so many ways. Simple kit, no real advertising except for local firms, players who just got on with it, simple kit with just a badge, lovely piece of action and you just know the crowd is supping gallons of Bovril on a freezing Manchester afternoon. Gonna get a print of that I think.
