ARCHANT shock story about shoddy journalism / editing... 08:03 - Mar 26 with 1344 viewsPendejo

http://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/a_comic_twist_on_nostalgic_pictures_for_red_no

I know this will come as a complete surprise to you all but whilst perusing the Ipswich Star website I came across this photo of Eric Gates wearing a pin striped "Pioneer" shirt.

Which is described as...
"Ipswich Town Football Club V Bradford City, November 1978"

So what's wrong with the statement v picture captioned?

Not only did we not wear that strip until 1981, we hadn't played Bradford City since 1952 until we played them in the League Cup in November 1981.

As someone else pointed out the other day when this was covered, perhaps that was the 'comic twist' the Star were claiming...

So apart from it not being Eric, not being November 1978 and not being Bradford, they're pretty much spot on.

I think it is Eric Gates, position on pitch would indicate an attacker, and may be Bradford and from November but in 81/82 season.
