       Team Seasonal Files

       As I am sure you are aware I have compiled a large amount of
       referee data thanks to help from various people on this group,
       and due to trolling through various newspapers over various
       years. I am now in the process of compiling it all, and I am
       doing season by season, team by team pdf files. [Main reason I
       felt over burdened trying to compile multiple teams all at once]
       I have created various methods and layouts in excel, but found
       inputting data for multiple teams all at once, tiresome and
       tedious.
       I have attached file, which I plan to use as a template for all
       teams I compile now, and thought in future it might be of
       interest to some members here, as it obviously includes
       referees, but may interest those who enjoy reminiscing about old
       matches etc.

       Excellent, thanks very much mande70. I was certainly at Highbury
       for the League game against Crystal Palace in Nov 1970. The ref
       was Denis Turner and it was one of the wettest afternoons I've
       ever had to endure at a top flight game, Highbury not having
       cover at the clock end where the visiting supporters were
       located. I'm not sure whether I was at Selhurst Park when David
       Smith refereed the return. As a matter of interest, although you
       have not included the League Cup, the Palace v Arsenal 4th round
       tie and replay were both refereed by Norman Burtenshaw (I was
       present at both), and the Palace won 2-0 in the replay, thus
       depriving Arsenal of the opportunity of a unique treble in
       domestic competitions.

       Sorry, a couple of errors noted:
       Leeds v Arsenal, April 1971 - referee was Norman Burtenshaw
       rather than Clive Thomas, as confirmed in Norman's autobiography
       Tottenham v Arsenal, final League game of the season - this was
       surely refereed by Kevin Howley (his last game) rather than Bob
       Matthewson?
       Edit - Norman's autobiography says that Jim Finney was due to
       referee the Leeds v Arsenal game (not the Arsenal v Stoke game
       as shown on your list), and he (Norman) was asked to take over
       this game after Jim was seriously injured in a car crash.

       My post of Thursday 11 June 2020, with the subject-line "Ron
       Finnerty - Thame, Oxfordshire", covers this :-
       <snip>
       Ron was on the line for the North London derby in May 1971, with
       Kevin Howley in the middle :-

       The programme on that page has a pen-pic of Kevin.

       Great stats.
       Just one slight correction for the European referees.  It should
       be Gerd Hennig (not Henning)
