Your dead right I played in that game, it was also on the local Television and guess who was Bournmouths Manager the Great Harry Redknap who obviously went onto bigger things.
Dave Boylen



24th March 1973, did Jack Lewis score?

Cheers, again if I remember right it was a pacey breakaway so it had to be JL or SB but it was a long time ago and most of us on the bus hadn't slept the night before.

That was a long way to go back in the day with not much of the journey being by motorway...remember doing an overnight drive in my old banger a couple of years later and it seemed like the road to Bournemouth was unending

Didn't go to this particular game as I was limited to local derbies and not allowed to go further afield being a kid but the team from that day / that era stirs some great memories

1.  Turner
2.  Campbell
3.   Booth
4.  Czuczman
5.   Wiggington
6.   Gray
7.   Brace
8.   Hickman
9.   Hubbard
10. Boylen
11. Gauden
12. Lewis

Oh Grimsby Grimsby

Redknapp didn't manage Bournemouth until 1983. He may have played in the game to which you are referring?

We won at Bournemouth (I think) at some time around 1973/74 and it was on MOTD.

Have to say I do not remember us being on MOTD against Bournemouth in the seventies or ever come to that, appreciate ITV covered these type of matches but no recollection of this at all. Getting concerned as normally this is the type of irrelevant fact I have stored away in the memory bank but not this time.

Still I await proof before seeing the doc to check for early signs of dementia
