It’s pre-Christmas guest blog time and the return of a regular voice, Alex Bain, who takes us back to football in the 1950s and 1960s. He compares then to now and, I should warn you… it’s not pretty. *** Having watched football since the late 1950s up to the present time, so much has changed […]

However, don’t be […]
