1946 - 1973 : the Lockheed Leamington era |

home -> lockheed leamington fc era | ||||||

Football was very different then. The centre half rarely went into the other team's half and neither did the fullbacks. Likewise, a center or wing forward found loitering in his own goal area would risk a reprimand from the team manager. It was actually a more open game then, though not as fast as today. They would regularly pull in crowds of 1,300- 1,500. It was good quality football. (Kevin R Cox via email) |
