Wow and to think if I joined to become an MCC member in 1939 I might just be receiving my full membership today 😂😂😂😂

Look how the people got dressed up in those days,not like the scruffy lot who get around today 😂.

I guess traffic safety wasn't such a big deal back then 😆

To think while this match was taking place, war in Europe had just broken out and Hitler had invaded Poland.
