The end is in sight, we’ve made it to 23 and we can almost hear the thud of reindeer hooves on the roof… Just a two days to go in the big December GOT NOT GOT challenge… one retro football post every day until Christmas Day…
Helping us along the way today is Michael Dixon @RetroRedDevil who handed us this Christmas Card via the miracle of Twitter…
Big Gordon, Kevin, Frank, Garry, Sammy, Lou, Martin, Coachy and Arthur have made a fantastic snowman in what we reckon is about 1982.
Now get inside lads, not a pair of gloves between you, you’ll get the chilblains.
Merry Christmas!

You’d better be good for goodness sake, if you want the retro-footy-grumble-fest ‘Got, Not Got’… runner-up in this year’s Footy Book of the Year, in your Christmas stocking (pillow case).
