From right to left: John King, John Rogers, Osvaldo Ardiles, Barry Howard and, I think, Colin Lee.

Nice picture by the way!  Never saw it before.

I agree with ' Kingy's Beard ' apart from the guy on the left who I don't think is Colin Lee......possibly John Lacy.

Flynny,

I'm with you on this one.

I reckon that the character on the far left is the Spurs centre half, John Lacy, who played alongside Bobby Moore for Fulham in the 1975 FA Cup Final.

I found it even more surreal to note that those who had viewed this item also viewed canvas prints of Adolf Hitler ! Perhaps they should add Steve Evans to their range !

I'm reliably informed that Jeff Forshaw is sitting for a shoot as I type.

Can I just say that I think that is the most uber-cool Alty kit I've ever seen.

I bet it just got thrown in the bin without any idea that 30 years later people would love to buy it due to how iconic the performance was or discuss it over the 'internet' on their 'computers'.

Ballers,

I ended up being the owner of Mal Bailey's Alty shirt from the first FA Cup tie at Spurs back in January 1979.

Alas, I'm not sure where it is located now....
