The Dynamo match must have taken a lot out of us because on Saturday 19th November we travelled to Luton and were hammered 8-2. One interesting development of Dynamo’s tour was that a group of pupils at Loughborough Grammar School secretly formed a team called Loughborough Dynamo (soccer wasn’t allowed in their school) and today they’re members of the Northern Premier League, Division One Midlands.
It wasn’t Lev Yashin’s last visit to Roker Park as in July 1966 he played in a World Cup match there against Italy, which the U.S.S.R. won 1-0. My big brother Graham was sixteen then and had been chosen to act as a photographer’s runner, which involved him crouching near the goal and racing round the track with full rolls of film. He told me that Lev spoke to him a couple of times – some memories.
