Great pics :D
Oh and some men painting the front of Burnden park too!
With the chrome bits over the headlight I'd say Triumphe Vitesse. Might be wrong.

Just spotted an item on ebay, its a press photo of "Bolton Wanderers Tour of Germany 1976"

Have a look at the flares, and Ian Greaves' blazor :lol:

If Ian Greaves & Roy Greaves combined they would have a matching outfit!

I'm trying to get hold of a copy of the programme from us v Millwall, 1/2/75. Why? Well, you might well ask. The game before we'd beaten Bristol Rovers 5-1 (Alan Warboys, Bruce Bannister and all). Our fifth goal was one that's been imprinted into my brain and will be forever - a Hugh Curran diving header into the Embankment end. I was only eight - I didn't even know that a diving header even existed. I was stood right behind the goal with my mate and his dad. In the programme for the Millwall game there was a picture of it, Hugh Curran mid-air and at full stretch heading it in. I want that programme again, just for that picture.

This was the large framed picture of the famous Lofty diving header ( pretty sure it was against Chelsea) that I saw all through my teens and twenties, in Len Hill's barbershop on Halliwell Road.

I think it's meant to spell Kick It Out, but they've gone all arse about face.
