Football combination Result
Does anyone know where there are statistics for the Football combination results....in particular 1957-8 and Palace Brighton from November?

Ray Potter, Henry(?) Collison, Alf Noakes, Arthur Proudler, Harold Redmond, Jimmy Sanders, Peter Berry, Ron Brett, Ray Farrell, Jimmy Murray, Graham Muxworthy. I have all the fixtures and results for the Combination in 1957-58 but not all the goalscorers or the line-ups (yet!). Tony1947 may have though. |

This thread has got me thinking that back in the days (70s) when was keeping my own records of combination scorers I never found out scorers or team from Swansea away in 1972/73 season, which was last game after first team had finished playing so result (4-2 loss I think) and team and scorers never appeared in a Palace programme and the Croydon Advertiser (very unusual for that time) did not have match report with line ups.
I Think Swansea were still 'Town' for that season. |

Team was Towse, Chatterton, Parker, McCarthy, Brown, McAughtrie, Pain, Devonshire, Austin, Lindsay, Thomas. Pain & Thomas scored our goals. Can't remember how I got the details, possibly from a friend who used to go to Colindale newspaper library and fill in details. |

Len Chatterton, later the groundsman?

So, we'd be bonkers if that wasn't the top priority. Nobody's giving up on staying in this league." CPFC2010, 5-11-2013 |

That's going to be Nicky Chatterton, Len's son, who did a pretty good job for us in midfield in the mid 70's, although usually as cover.
Len did play for Palace I think, but it would have been around 30 years earlier as a Reserve or in Palace wartime fixtures in the 1940's. In that Palace reserve line-up v Swansea is Alan Devonshire who got released by Big Mal in about 1974 and went on to be a legendary midfielder for West Ham - his Dad Les played for Palace - which is probably why Alan's Testimonial was West Ham v Palace.

Colindale closed in 2013, moved to Yorkshire. There is still some papers at St Pancras Library. Mostly on Micro-film and easier to obtain. We certainly made a mistake about Alan Devonshire and Terry Austin played for Ipswich Town and other clubs.

Watched Swindon T Res v Palace Res at the Country Ground in Dec 1972 ... same day as the 5-0 thrashing of Moan U.
Bill Roffey, the nugget full back, was skipper. That is all.
