I supported Yarmouth Town from 1948 and was their goalkeeper from 1957 to 1963, playing 140 games. I got a bit of local fame in 1960 when I saved five consecutive penalties. I think the two pictures shown are before the game with Fc Muttenze who were a Swiss team. The top picture is of Yarmouth and the bottom is the Swiss side. I think the game was played on Easter Monday, probably in 1953, and I think Yarmouth won 6-0.
