From the Trevor Baumber collection Nobby played for Manchester United, Preston and Brighton before joining Lincoln City in 1971, making 20 appearances before retiring from the game.

An intriguing little book this giving a paragraph to all of the Football League teams playing in that season. What’s more interesting is the decision to use the Lincoln City Supporters Club badge next to the Imps entry!
