I wonder why players were always clean shaven in those days? When exactly did wearing stubble first become acceptable? Was it George Michael that made it the norm?

Kenny Burns of Birmingham City with his teammates and the car he received for scoring the sixth goal in a 6-2 win over Leicester City.
Burns would eventually sell the car and give £200 to each of his team mates.
 
Who else was there for this embarrassing game?
 
A very icy pitch, I think we were playing in trainers for the first half if my memory is true.
 
If you fancy watching it .......

I actually prefer the design of the old main stand.

The King Power Stadium one looks too corporate personally.

I would not want to step out onto a football field and face one of these players...
