I'm vaguely starting to run out of Betamax tapes, so if you've got any old ones stashed away in cupboards/lofts, please let me know. VHS more than welcome too. Only looking for 80s recordings. Thanks.

Edozie on the bench! Didn't think we'd ever see him again. Larin on there too.
Good to see a bit of consistency with an unchanged line up

So no Archer or Armstrong in the squad, looks like they're off, I hope SR have at least one decent striker lined up because Stewart isn't going to stay fit for long which will leave us with.....?
