Happy 50th Birthday Ozzie Owl


Recommended Posts

As Wednesday were beating QPR with a John Ritchie hat trick in an FA Cup game ON THIS DAY  in 1967, 40,038 in Hillsborough witnessed the birth of a club legend.

 

A little heavier but a legend in his own pie shop !

I was there, seem to remember a few balloons before kick off. Ozzie was just the drawing that appeared on stuff.  I bought a tie, which I still have.  I think he was inspired by World Cup Willie, and it was a really innovative thing back then. Under the late, great Eric Taylor we were innovators then.
