Love the programme cover.
Always handy to remind fans how convenient we are for the English Channel.
Also ... "Today League Division Four" ... did we hop from division to division during the week? :)

A great retro 1950s look to the programme that season.

Dartmoor seems to have shifted west a bit.

No programme cover, but 11 years ago today was the infamous 6-1 home defeat to Chesterfield.

That was an embarrassing night. And very wet, IIRC. I didn't mind the bad loss to Bournemouth later that season as they were a good team, but we were poor v. Chesterfield. I checked on Soccerbase and Matt T and Deano played in that game, too. The team was:

P Jones

S Tully
M Taylor
D Moxey
D Seaborne

R Edwards
M Gill
B Cozic

R Logan
A Stansfield
M Stewart

On paper you would have said that was a decent team- Stuff just happens sometimes.
