BRISTOL ROVERS ~ 1963-64

The WATFORD programme for Sept 21 1963, a 3-2 defeat for ROVERS, eagle eyed fans wil spot Dai WARD playing for WATFORD.
A mid table finish this season (12th), the 46 games yielding 46 points.

91 goals meant an average of close to 2 per game with Alfie BIGGS notching 30 Ian HAMILTON(14) Harold JARMAN (13) and John BROWN 12).

Bernard HALL, Doug HILLARD, BIGGS and JARMAN all played in th 46 league games.

A trip to OLD TRAFFORD for a 4th Round FA Cup tie ended in a 4-1 defeat in front of 55,720 (and me and my dad) spectators. I am convinced Pat CRERAND headed an own goal to give us something to cheer!
