Apologies in advance for selecting the team formerly known as Newton Heath

Things to note.
405 line black and white broadcast only - keep an eye on your vertical hold!
Dreadful pitch (although it was the end of the season).
The clock showing time played!!
No current score display
No club or adverting logos on the shirts.
Action replays not yet invented.
Stitched on shirt numbers.
Many players look about 7 stone.
Bobby Charlton absolutely majestic.
Only one ball - but a spare was on hand.
Back pass to keeper allowed.
No subs allowed til 6 months later.
A number of players playing who later played for County- can you name them all?
