Apologies, I have posted similar requests in the past but not for a while
We are working on a project to try and collect video footage of as much historical GTFC action as we can. This includes matches/highlights that were on TV before the digital era or even just news reports about the club. There are even some old cine highlights of famous matches against Scunthorpe and Exeter in 1971/72 and Barnsley in 1979 (although we only have brief clips of this one, not the original).
If anyone has old DVD/Video/Cine or knows of any out there, please get in touch. We have a lot already but there are always opportunities to improve upon the quality of existing footage. There are also some more recent needs, particularly Town's early non-league games that were covered by Premier Sports/BT Sports.
There are a list of highlights games that we need. Some of these are almost impossible now I suspect but will list for anyone interested.

If you are interested in the history of the club, or just watching the footage we already have, then I share it daily as @onthisgtfcday on Twitter. Also sharing newspaper articles, photos, programmes and other memorabilia.
If you think you may have anything of interest, please message me, or drop an email to onthisgtfcday@gmail.com
Thanks
