    Mike Phelan didn't have to do much in the way of make-up fr that picture, did he?

      Now that I think about the McKenzie leap, it’s remarkable how blasé managers were towards their star players back in the seventies. It’s a packed Elland Road so it must be pre match. It’s amazing that McKenzie was allowed to do his leap considering all the injury potentialities. British Leyland must have flashed a lot of taxpayer cash at the United board.

              Yeah, Hughes is middle-right. Kanchelskis is middle-left.

              Steve Bruce really looks the part in that photo.

                Denis Irwin looks the spit of my dad's mate flinty in that picture. I might have to print it off.

                    Etudes typologiques is a series of images based on particular types of player represented on Panini-type football cards. The full study is here on photographer Olivier Cablat's website. For example:

                      I love the trope of photographing players in such a state of ball-watching concentration they look like they are being amazed and bemused by mysterious flying objects. This example, from today's Guardian, is particularly special in that it involves a man not known for having the most intelligent-looking face:

                              Nice piece of design on the ticket for Malta - England 1971.



                              There's an interesting photograph from that game (on Twitter, so I think unembeddable) here.

                                  also, from the same useful chap putting all these on facebook, i love seeing stuff like this:



                                  i remember visiting the ground around this time (1990) whilst visiting me uncle. never got to go inside (only into the clubshop portakabin). blows my mind a bit to compare it to the present stadium.

                                  i also like the old west stand, because every stadium should have the club's name painted on it in absolutely bloody massive letters:

                                      JW: IN the 70s the row of terraced houses on the right (leazes terrace?) had people getting a free view while that stand was under construction.
                                      It's a listed street (John Dobson?) and is the reason Syd James's is lopsided as I think their not allowed to build any higher than either the terrace or the previous stand.

                                        Aye, I love seeing 'The Big Match' and stuff like that from the 70s, seeing the houses peeping out at each end of the stand.

                                        Anyway, only came here to tack on that this thread on Skyscraper City has a lot of the different plans for expansions/replacement of St. James'. My favourite is this wacky mad thing somebody wanted to build in Gateshead;

                                            A rather charming picture of the North Korean squad training at Goodison Park during the 1966 World Cup can't be embedded (by me, anyway), but it's here.

                                                  PPV's Bobby Charlton is at Wolves, according to other sources. It's in that lovely book of photos by ... some guy I've forgotten, he was a football photographer for 40 years.

                                                    Thanks for resurrecting this thread - seeing that Keane/Stam photo again has really cheered me up.
