The picture captures the moment just before the mischief unfolds, with Teesside Evening Gazette Sports reporter Cliff Mitchell still proudly wearing his trilby hat. Cliff Mitchell, a well-known journalist and sports writer in the North East of England, stands confidently on the left side of the frame, donning his coat as he prepares for what is about to unfold. Little does he know that his beloved hat will soon become engulfed in flames. The atmosphere is filled with fun and humor as these footballers decide to add some excitement to their day. This quirky display showcases not only their mischievous nature but also their camaraderie off the field. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time on January 1st, 1974, it becomes clear that moments like these transcend mere sport; they represent human connection and shared experiences.
