Thanks for the info Brian - shame that the 78 final footage has disappeared. Maybe one day...
I have an interesting 30 minutes radio recording of a show on BBC Radio Manchester immediately after the 1978 Trophy semi-final 1st leg against Runcorn - it features Tony Sanders fielding questions from supporters on a phone-in and the presenter in the studio. The mood was a little despondent after a 0-0 home draw but Sanders seemed optimistic about the 2nd leg as we had been without Jeff Johnson (suspended) and John Rogers had gone off ill during the game - I remember Mickey Brooke playing up front for the last half an hour in that game. If I remember correctly Barry Whitbread (then Runcorn) was supposed to have been suspended for the 2nd leg but they somehow managed to get him free to play which was annoying as we had lost Jeff for the first match. Didn't matter of course - Mal Bailey, what a hero!
I also have a recording of the radio match reports from throughout the 1-1 draw with Spurs as I didn't actually go to the game. Must dig that out - its buried in the loft with all my other Alty memorabilia going back to the early 60s...
Cheers,
Paul
