Anyone having a post Christmas clear out ? Quite scary what you find - and this is without shirts / training wear etc.

Not just a proper formation but some proper players Played with leather ball that when wet weighed a tonne .Many a time the ball and2-3-5, now that's a proper formation for a football team!
We have been having a clear out too
and yes, surprising what you find. Local charity shop have been the beneficiary of many many black bags of stuff.
However, we have framed pictures of Highfield Road and Ricoh Arena (Ricoh one still in its original wrapping) which I am thinking of trying to sell for perhaps a tenner each if anyone is interested.
Also, not a CCFC item but I have a Coventry Monopoly game never been opened. It must be 15-20 years old, so got all the old street names etc. on it.
Peter Taylor played for England when Palace were in the third division.Not just a proper formation but some proper players Played with leather ball that when wet weighed a tonne .Many a time the ball and
goalkeepers were bundled in the net if they dare hold on to it with players like Curtis bearing down on them. Saw most of them play shame they played in kickers though (see kit).Our goalkeeper Reg Mattews was and i think still is the only player from the 3 tier of English Football to play for England great childhood memories there for me
Stand corrected.Peter Taylor played for England when Palace were in the third division.
I was going to ask if anyone recognised the team. I know Matthews and Curtis but the rest are lost on meNot just a proper formation but some proper players Played with leather ball that when wet weighed a tonne .Many a time the ball and

I might be slightly older than you the 1's i don't remember are Uphill Simpson , Johnson and Regan.There again if i looked them up might just jog my brain.There again at my age might not.I was going to ask if anyone recognised the team. I know Matthews and Curtis but the rest are lost on me
Saturday Monday fixtures!I've been the recipient of someone else's clear out this week, load of old programmes belonging to my auntie and Grandad. Me and Grandad share a birthday and by some strange coincidence, the oldest one I've found is from that date in 1956. Finished 16th in Div 3 (South) that year.

Interested if for sale?I have 2 menus from 1967 for a commemorative meal held at the Leofric. They open out to reveal the fully themed menu with a team picture on the reverse. One is fully signed by Jimmy Hill and the squad. imagine that these may be quite rare?
