On Saturday 6th March 1976, I attended the U15 international between England and Northern Ireland (played for the 'Victory Shield') at the Manor Ground. England won 5-0 but I have no attendance figure for this match written down in my records, so can anyone assist? From memory I would say perhaps in the region of 1,000 but this was nearly half a century ago and my most specific memory of the day is of standing behind the Cuckoo Lane goal, rather than trying to estimate the crowd. Was an exact attendance figure ever published anywhere? Thanks in advance for any help.
