HER MAJESTY AND PRINCE PHILLIP! IN ANOTHER TIME AND SPACE! BEFORE WE WERE EVEN BORN.NINETY FOUR PERCENT OF THE WORLD'S POPULATION WERE BORN AFTER PRINCESS ELIZABETH BECAME QUEEN! THAT IS EXTRAORDINARY!
The way they kicked off.. it’s amazing how much has changed because now it’s all about possession. The way they started attacking right when the whistle blew off, you would never see that happen today.

You literally see it happening every other week. Just last week Bournemouth attacked and scored straight from the kick off.

Kick and rush was the phrase ⚽️😜
WASN'T THAT LEICESTER CITY TEAM THE LOWEST EVER PLACED FINALISTS IN AN FA CUP MATCH? ALMOST RELEGATED FROM THE SECOND DIVISION? AGAINST THE MIGHTY WOLVES,BIG TEAM OF THE 1950S AND ENDED THE DECADE BY WINNING THE 1960 FA CUP FINAL? 3-0 V BLACKBURN ROVERS? BROKEN LEG? KEN CHALMERS? OUCH!

It was Dave Whelan (Blackburn) who broke his leg in the 1960 final. Len (not Ken) Chalmers (Leicester) suffered a leg injury - but not a fracture - in the following year's final, playing on as a left-wing "passenger" till shortly before the end.
