Speaking of early 70s players, I just found this cracking image of Peter O'Sullivan.

PROFESSIONAL AMBITION: To win a full Welsh cap and play in Division One.

Thanks for that. I've done my homework now and he did umpire in one day internationals and play in tests. I'm 66yo and I wish my memory was better.

I like the fact that all the First Division teams pose in their stadiums, while Liverpool's photo looks like it was shot round the back of the local working mens' club.

And workington in div 4, look like a load of blokes dragged out of a working mans club.
