Sounds about right as he took his Final Part 3 of The FA Pro Coaching Licence in summer of 1957 at Lilleshall, we did move to Luton in 1959 and then to Leeds in summer of 1960, so its almost 50 years since I last watched Stanley play as an 8 year old, need to rectify that soon!
Where do all the years go!
