FISH & CHIPS...AND STRIKERS, 1977
Local ad for "Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips" featuring the "English Lads" from the Ft. Lauderdale Strikers. The players are (L to R) David Chadwick, Maurice Whittle, David Irving, Gordon Fearnley, Ray Lugg, Ray Hudson, Tim Parkin, Gordon Banks, and Tony Whelan. We had "Arthur Treacher's" restaurants in Memphis back in the 70's. It was pretty good. Not as good as England but pretty good.
