Wnlverlmmpfnn. 1 Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club (1923) Limit* 1 NOTES BY "WANDERER" MOL1NEUX GROUNDS, WOLVERHAMPTON AN UNEXPECTED PLEASURE his is indeed an unexpected pleasure. In a season when it looked odds against SEASON 1152-53 a cup tie at Molineux—an unusual enough occurrence in itself—-we are Directors: T asked, thanks to the lucky toss of a coin, to provide the accommodation for Chairman: J. S. BAKER, Esq. what ought to be one of the most thrilling games of the season. J. EVANS, Esq. C H. HUNTER, Esq. J,H. MARSHALL, Esq. A. H. OAKLEY, Esq, J.P. The reason is well enough known. It follows what seems to be a Midlands habit of taking cup-ties to extraordinary lengths. First there were Albion and Manager i STANLEY CULLIS Secretary! JOHN T. HOW LEY Chelsea who went to three replays and now we have Birmingham City and Telephone: 24863/4 Telegrams: "Wanderers," Wolverhampton. ott^j?an? Hotspur who, following the same lines, meet today for the third time. Whether the teams like this sort of thing is, for the moment, beside the point for it may be said they have brought it on themselves because both, according to reports, have had their chances of winning in one or other of their FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION CUP —ROUND 6 —REPLAY two original meetings. AT What we, as spectators are concerned with, is seeing a good game and that MOLINEUX GROUNDS, WOLVERHAMPTON seems to be on the cards. (Covered Accommodation for 30,000) DISTINCT CONTRAST IN STYLE NE thing stands out about this game and that is the contrast it offers in MONDAY, MARCH 9th, 1953 # « AJ g4/L Ofootball style. Kick-off 3-0 p.m. W On the one hand are Spurs, one of the most immaculate football combina- tions m the business and on the other the Blues, noted for their tearaway, go-ahead tactics which, so far, at any rate have proved pretty effective. Shirts: Knickers Which of these two systems will prevail we shall soon see (if we do not, there Blue BIRMINGHAM CITY White is a fourth meeting to look forward to) and it will be interesting to see whether RIGHT LEFT the studied methods of Spurs can be upset by the more direct approach of the Blues. MERRICK Spurs are acknowledged masters of the short-passing game which they take sometimes almost to the point of insolence. Some feel this is a dangerous policy GREEN but there is little question about its paying dividends in this particular case. Birmingham on the other hand favour the " get-there-quickly" technique and this too has had its reward. THEY NEARLY DID IT Ba* ^^BADHAM NLY two seasons ago, playing in the same determined fashion, Birmingham Owere within inches of reaching the F.A. cup final. Do you remember their STEWART TRIGG FERRIS WARDLE sensational semi-finals with Blackpool; at the same time that Wolves were ft similarly engaged with Newcastle United? Linesman—Red Flag Referee— Linesman—Yellow Flag It was literally inches, we recall, that prevented Birmingham settling the C. H. SANT A. BROWN W. J. MAEDON matter in the last minutes of the first meeting (ending 0-0) and it was only with (Crewe) (Middlesbrough) (Bristol) the greatest difficulty that they were disposed of in the second game. .°n !£;e ?ther hand they may wonder whether this ground is one of their luckiest. Their last appearance here was in their last game in the First Division and they were on the losing side against a Wolves team who needed to score MEDLEY BAILY DUQUEMIN BENNETT WALTERS about 20 goals to get the First Division title. Wolves did not get their 20, but Birmingham got their removal to the lower sphere where they are now distinguishing 11 10 9 8 themselves. BURGESS GIBBINS BRITTAN Another tilt at Blackpool would not come amiss, but Spurs may have fome- thing to say about that. 6 SOME FAST WORK WITHERS RAMSEY T was not until 5-30 on Wednesday that we were told the ground would be ! required for today's game and from that moment we had to start working fast DITCHBURN in order to make all the necessary arrangements. There is much more to organising the ground for a sixth round cup replay than merely telling the two teams and the referee about it, as though they did LEFT RIGHT not know anyway. Shirts: Knickers There were things to be decided and by midday on Thursday all that could be done had been done. White TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR Blue THE TEAMS ARE SUBJECT TO ALTERATION The clubs had agreed to the disposal of the available stand tickets on the basis of a third each to Wolves, Spurs and Birmingham, and we at Molineux had made our selling arrangements. SOME FAMOUS FIGURES OST of you here today will be all-too-familiar with the players in this To COMPLETE enjoyment game, but for the benefit of those mid-week followers whose football Mopportunities are rare it is perhaps interesting to note a few facts For instance, if the teams are .at their full strength we shall have the opportunitv of ALL WOLVES FANS ASK FOR seeing in action in their respective goals two of the best goalkeepers in football, Binnine- ham s Gil Merrick and Spurs' Ted Ditchburn, who have long vied with each other for the honour of keeping goal for England. Then there are first choice England right-back for many a long day, Alf Ramsey of the immaculate style and the calculated kick, and Birmingham's Ken Green, so near to the BUTLER'S BOTTLED BITTER international class for so long. What else can we say except to hope we may see a game worthy of the occasion and two splendid teams who are to be congratulated on getting thus far? But Birmingham have been pressing their claims in the Cup Competition very hard since the Hitler war. They were in the semi-final in 1946 and gave Derby County, the ultimate winners, a real run for their money by taking the test to two meetings. Again, they were almost as brisk in their challenge to Blackpool in the semi-final of 1951 and only quitted after a replay. So their rigid opposition to the noted First Division team from Tottenham at the present juncture isn't surprising. (jftmnhyOGbmoC Birmingham City's team comes from all parts. Boy and man, Gilbert Merrick in goal, has been a Birmingham City stalwart all his life—first in vociferous school-days and now as a stylish International goalkeeper. Of the full-backs, Green comes from West Ham and, while on Army service, wrote to Birmingham City for a trial. That way Tom Bromilow, popular little ITHOUT being uncomplimentary, today's third meeting of the Tottenham International of Liverpool, entered first-class football, as he knocked on the door and Birmingham teams in the 6th round of the F.A. Cup can be called at Anfield with his boots tucked underneath his arm. Great things are predicted Wancient and modern.

    Players Parade at Goodison Park Appearance record to end of 1969-70 season Football League – Division 1 Saturday 28th November 1970 By Alan Williams, Daily Express, in Everton Matchday Magazine TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR Alan Gilzean Scotish international ALAN GILZEAN is now the highest-goal-scorer on Spur´s staff. A forward who mixes a high degree of craft with an eye for goal with either head or foot, the Perthshire men has been well worth the £72500 fee paid to Dundee in December, 1964. While with Dundee army service took him to Aldershot. Alan won the first of his 21 full scotish caps in 1962-63 and appears to be back at his peak this season Alan Gilzean´s Leauge career: Dundee Apps. 135 Goals 11 Tottenham Apps. 206 (2) Goals 66 Alan Mullery Some time next season Tottenham skipper ALAN MULLERY should join the select band of players to reach 500 Leauge appearances. Spurs paid Fulham £72500 in March, 1964, to enlist the Notting Hill-born wing half as the successor to Danny Blanchflower and, in topping 250 Leauge games for Spurs, Mullery has proved himself tough in avoiding injury – and also in character as hypercritical Spurs fans were too quick to compare him with the adored Blanchflower. Winning an FA Cup medal in 1967 was an important boost, but perhaps more important to Mullery was the faith of England team manger Sir Alf Ramsey, who had given him 31 full caps when he scored in the final World Cup game against Germany. Mullery also owns three Under-23 honours and has played for the Football Leauge, but won´t be happy until he has led Spurs to the championship.
