This is my great friend Ken Aston who invented the Red and yellow cards anyone know where he got the idea from?? The picture putting on the white boots, which he was going to wear to referee an FA Cup final only to change his mind 30 minutes before kick off, reasoning that his bosses at the FA would not be to happy. This photo was taken in his back garden In Ilford, l was at his house twice for tea great times. The other 2 photos show Ken wearing the white boots at a charity match sending off The great Norman Wisdom for over acting??? Rest in peace old friend Ken, also RIP Norman Wisdom.
