The picture is a bit blurry but it looks like those are fixture posters on the walls. I think "Luton T" is one of the teams. Might help with the date.

I used to love walking past the ground as a kid and seeing those fixtures (1970s), with names like "Port Vale", so exotic!

I’ll guess the 1966-67 season.

I’ve never seen a old photo looking down St James Rd toward Well Street.
When I first visited SJP(1971)there was a large Exeter City AFC sign between the turnstiles & Cowshed facing up St James Rd towards Old Tiverton Rd.
It was certainly there until the early 80s.

A great image of Tony Kellow after he had completed his hat trick against Leicester in the FAC 4th Round replay Jan 1981.
Zoom in & see the silhouette of the fella in his flat along St James Rd.He had a prime view of the games sat on his stepladder(hence his nickname to many of us as stepladder)
I can remember seeing him from the early 1970s to the 1990s watching from that vantage point.

What a night that was. Went with 2 Leicester supporting mates.

On that run,I preferred the two Leicester games over the two Newcastle games(football wise)

March 1977.
A good crowd at SJP.
A lot of interest in Watford at the time after Elton John had recently bought the club.

Missing is the Workington v Bournemouth score & att 1-1 : 1,034.

The Cumbrians would be voted out of the FL in 3 months time.

At the time, that defeat at Crewe looked like the end of City's promotion chances: note the outfield sub for injured goalkeeper Key. Lee Roberts' debut (loan) but Geoff Gay (also loan) went in goal and manager Saxton got sent off.
