John Newman went on to manage Grimsby, of course.

Banksy scored a lot of goals that season.

I would have sold this programme issue, as I had a regular spot in Well Street at that time!

Was at both of those two games above, when mid week fixtures were always on a Wednesday & kick off was 7.30.
Banks & Binney... 2 of our all time great goal scorers!

I wonder when & why they changed to a Tuesday for midweek games..Also back then only 10 mins HT break.
Games finished at 9.10-9.15pm.i then ran to the bus station to get the 9.25pm bus back to Exminster.
