I refer the Honourable Gentleman to the opening post of the Prediction League game 2 (v Portsmouth - home) wherein it says so ...........

the replay was my first sight of Stanley since being exiled south at the end of '51. Signal failure meant my train was late and got into the ground after 20 mins played. No subs back yon and Stanley had had one carried off + 'keeper McInnes limping badly out on the right wing. Don't know what the hell had happened but we were also 3 - 0 down to the top division side. Did well to draw the remaining 70 mins 1 - 1 with effectively 9 men on the park. Charlie Sneddon must have been out injured as Gordon Stones wore the 6 shirt that day.
