Think i might have just seen one or two of those players, I wasn't a Hudds fan in those days but my Granddad used to take me all over to games I certainly remember the big terrace at Fartown, I remember going to a Cup tie there " a night match " i think it was a semi replay, Dont remember the two sides but i think one of them may have been Oldham. Maybe one of the older posters may remember it, seem to remember the crowd was about 30,000.
What i like about Fartown is they are still there despite the last few decades.
