Who was there in 1973?

Not me, I was 13 and had me paper round to do. We had lost in the cup the previous season after taking the lead twice at Highbury and took them back to Filbo, Farrington scored after 2 mins but Arsenal came back to win, Eddie Kelly scored. So to win at Arsenal the following season was karma, in fact, we did the double over them
 
I was there , can't remember anything about the game. Just looked at the math stats, out of 22 players on the pitch 20 were English & 2 Scottish. We had 11 English players.

Attendance only 28558
 
I remember going to WHL a couple of years later when Stevie Kember scored a beauty. 1-1 draw I think.
 
Only went to Highbury once in 1994/5 when we inexplicably got a 1-1 draw, the only point I saw us get that season. I was on the North Bank and stupidly stood up when we equalised.

Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?
Shanks says no, I don't think so
But I've heard of the Bentleys Soft Lads"
