Jimmy Greaves scoring at Hillsborough.

Not against Wednesday but against Manchester United in 1962 FA Cup Semi Final.
Think this is a great photo.

Why are old action photos so much better than current ones. This is fantastic in so many ways. The majestic new North Stand with flags flying, the little covering at Leppings Lane.   Only 7 players in the photo too yet it shows nearly half(?) of the pitch. or is it the camera angle?. Greaves was the ultimate predator wasn't he. I wish I'd seen him more. I used to go to see Spurs (well, him really) whenever they were at Forest or the lane. Can't remember ever seeing him score against us.

Agree with many of the names. First ones that came to mind were Klinnsman and Owen. Shout out for Collymore as well. We played Southend in a cup match, and we should have signed him straight after full time.  Very underrated player who should have done more.
