I recently found out that there is one football card in this set of cards. Matthew Zubrot (Jediknight) kindly supplied scans of the front and back of the card. Matt pointed out the strange reference to Spurs' third 'point' in the text on the back of the card. A couple of people have sent in more information on this card (Thanks Roger and Steve) - The card shows a scene from the F.A. Cup Final replay at Burden Park, Bolton, when Spurs won 3-1, with Brown scoring the 3rd goal.
18. Tottenham Hotspur v Sheffield United
"The third point" is probably a reference to them achieving their third point OF THE SEASON, either by gaining their third draw, or by having already won and this header secured a draw, or vice versa. Only explanation that I can offer!

DeleteJust seen this. Only 7 years too late!
ReplyDeleteThe "third point" is simply the third goal.
