Don't know if you have ever seen this. When the Shrimps won the FA Trophy in 1974 one of our fans took a cine camera with him as it was in the days before video.

I was in the end opposite the Tunnel end with 10,000 others.

This has now appeared on Youtube :-

In the Dartford side was Graham Carr manager later of Northampton and the lashers of Donkies, also father of camp comedian???!!! Alan Carr.

One of the Morescum team was head of metal work at Horwich Tech in 1974, think it was Richmond.

it was Malcolm Richmond and he scored the first goal at Wembley.

I knew he was a teacher but didn't know where.

There was a reunion a couple of years ago for the launch of a book "Light at the end of the Tunnel" covering the Shrimps history since being founded in 1920. Malcolm Richmond's sister came along to represent him as he was unable to come.

He was a very good striker.
