Number 5 Nick Marker.
I think it’s the 82/83 season.Delve was released at the end of that season.
A guess would be the game against Cardiff.

Number 5 has to be Nicky Marker, or its someone with a very similar stance and bearing.

Guess the team is someone in a change strip, so normally wear red. Someone northern like Rotherham?

Not many there - pre season friendly?

That’s never delve furthest right, surely?

Probably been posted before but anyway ... a picture quiz:

View attachment 5421

I always like looking at the demographic of spectators at games from games 30-40 years ago & how much they have changed in the past 15-20 years.
That picture & one from 10 years earlier(of the SJ Rd end,which is in Red Square)show a 95% male attendance & no evidence of family groups,something that was probably mirrored all over the Football League until things started to change from 1990 on.
It would be interesting to see the demographic of a crowd at SJP in recent times.
I would suggest that the Male/Female balance is now something like 70/30 ?

Gordon Hines was the Exeter City correspondent in those days iirc.
It was a decent Sunday Paper in those days.They always had great action photos from SJP.
