Haha good spot Shaun .Our minibus was organised by John Billy (on pic) and ran from Sherwood.
Mick Maddock also on there.

Firstly I look a right scruff and needed a bloody shave/hair cut. Today not got much to cut. My lad with the wig and face paint holding blue baloon is now 37!

My dad and brother went the night before on the ISA coach and stayed in Wycombe.

Happy days.

I was on the same car park that morning. Feels a mightily long time ago now. Time to write some new memories Roland

I guess the two companies might have had an arrangement when one had a bus out of service or something.

I was thinking the same myself. Maybe I'm being thick, and I'm sure a lot of you will agree 🙄, but I didn't think cars were as prevalent in those days.

I think that photo is from the 1934 FA Cup tie against Northampton ( we won 4-0 )

I agree about the volume of cars though…..
