50 years today folks since one of the best ever days out. League Cup Final, Wolves 2 Man City 1 with Ken Hibbitt and John Richards getting our goals.I remember eey-aye-adio we've won the cup ringing round the ground.Found my ticket the other day;80p! FA cup this year at last?Fed up of losing in the semis, seen us do that in 73, 79, 81, 98 and 19!

Yes, what a day indeed Old Wulf, unbelievable, the image I'll never forget was the doog falling to his knees alongside Mike Bailey (, admittedly obscured somewhat) holding the cup up at the Royal box.
There's been so many disappointments as you point out bar our success over forest. It would be my dream to have one more Wembley cup win in my life time. As you ask, this year?

Great memories.
Who was the only non English player who played for us in that game?

Old Wolf, I also have a ticket for that final. Like you say 80p and have a ticket for the Second leg of the UEFA cup final against Tottenham at White Hart lane £1.20. A season ticket holder in those days. I can't remember how much it cost but £8 sticks in my mind.would that be about right?

It was Old Wulf, I also went to that and the one against Forest. Actually, never seen Wolves lose at Wembley.

I watched the first leg of the EUFA cup final at the Mol Alpine, broke my left leg very badly, playing football the following Sunday so missed the second leg at White Hart Lane. Waggys goal there was a screamer I seem to remember.

That would be the mountain Munroe greleg. If I'm recalling rightly his first full cap for Scotland was against England in the home internationals. I know I put a bet on him to score, and he did, in his own net. He was a fantastic player and I think he was spotted when he played against us in the 1967 USA adventure.

Not sure about the season ticket cost, alpine. Got some old ones in the loft somewhere but doubt if they'll have the price on.Junior prices in those days of course. Remember queuing to get in the North Bank in the 60's when blokes in their mid 20's were still blagging it to get into the school kids entrance!

Sorry folks, we also had a Brazilian in those days of course. Zico!

{Ed001's Note - that's a bit too much information there Old Wulf! I am sure your other half appreciated the tidiness down below though.}
