I use to have that picture on my bedroom wallOn this day 1970, Jimmy Neighbour made his debut for us.
Got it from Shoot ,i think.

This is inside the ground that day. Is that Trevor Booking on the right-it does seem like he's been around for years?
Quite possible that is actually a red kit (Blue shorts)Spurs ex-captain Stanley Briggs pictured in 1893. An amateur, he left the club when we went fully pro two years later. Look at that lovely kit.
Yes, they were our colours in the year given. It looks white and navy though. Dunno mate.
Edit: it can't be red surely? It would be pink.
Agree, also has a badge on it, poss England?? Trotts of to google........back in a tick
Of course. He's holding a cap. Must be his first England cap.
Isn't it an England kit? Presumably the amateur national side ?

The cunt moved to Woolwich after us so fuck him.
