PETER SHILTON. The boy whose great potential led to City parting with England goalkeeper Gordon Banks to Stoke in April 1967, Shilton is one of Leicester's most notable finds. In season 1965-66, at 16, he became their youngest-ever first-team player when making his debut against Everton. A product of Leicester schools football, he has this season added England Under-23 honours to caps at Schoolboy and Youth level. Born Leicester.  6 ft.  12 st. 2 Ib.

PETER RODRIGUES. Signed from Cardiff City in December 1965 for £40,000. He began his career in Welsh junior football and has 15 full Welsh caps to his credit. Unusually fast for a defender, he is a quick, decisive tackier and at speed in recovery there are few better. Born Cardiff.  5 ft. 7 in.  10 st. 13 Ib.

DAVID NISH (Captain). Another fine young Filbert Street prospect, he made his senior debut in October 1967 when 18. He becomes Wembley's youngest F.A. Cup Final captain. He started his career as an inside-left but successfully dropped back into defence when Graham Cross was out through injury. England Youth international, Nish brings a high 1.Q. to his game—he achieved nine "0" levels. Born Measham.  5 ft. 10 in.  11 st. 10 Ib.

BOBBY ROBERTS.  Signed from Motherwell in September 1963 at a £40,000 fee. Played in several forward positions for the Scottish club before settling at wing-half for City. A sharpshooter, too, he still likes to stride through for a crack at goal. Born Edinburgh.  5 ft. 94 in.  12 st. 4 Ib.

JOHN SJOBERG. He played in the 1963 F.A. Cup Final in which Leicester lost 3-1 to Manchester United. He is the longest-serving member of the staff, having been signed from the Scottish junior club. Banks O'Dee, in August 1958. A centre-half, he has also played at right-back and centre-forward. Born Aberdeen, of Danish descent.  6 ft.  12 st. 2 Ib.

GRAHAM CROSS. Left-half and another member of Leicester's 1963 F.A. Cup Final team. A Leicester schools product, he signed for City in November 1960. A real all-rounder, having played in eight different positions for the club and also county cricket for Leicestershire. League debut at 17 and made eleven England Under-23 appearances 1963-66. Born Leicester.  6 ft.  12 st. 11 Ib.

RODNEY FERN. Received his chance when Jackie Sinclair was transferred to Newcastle last season. Made his debut aged 19 and has proved a fine replacement. Good on and off the ball, he possesses a strong shot. Like Nish, he joined City from nearby Measham, where he was born. 5 ft. 10 in.   11 st. 7 Ib.

DAVID GIBSON. Schemed Leicester to Wembley in 1963 and has helped them do it again. Cost £25,000 when signed from Hibernian in January 1962, and the number of full Scottish caps he holds (seven) is small considering his ability to open up opposing defences. A fine ball-player, he can also be dangerous near goal. Born Winchburgh, near Edinburgh.  5 ft. 7 in.  10 st. 11 Ib.

ANDY LOCHHEAD. Signed from Burnley last October for £70,000, this 27-year-old striker was bought as a foil for Allan Clarke. Made League debut in August 1960 against Manchester City and is generally regarded as one of the game's most dangerous headers of the ball. Has played for Scotland's Under-23 side.  Born Miligie, Dumbartonshire.  5 ft. 11 t in.  12 st. 6 Ib.

ALLAN CLARKE. Became Britain's costliest player when signed from Fulham last June in a part-exchange deal equivalent to £150,000. Started his senior career with Walsall and joined Fulham for £35,000 in March 1966. Has played five times for England Under-23's. A natural striker, he has fulfilled a deeper role since manager Frank O'Farrell took over in mid-season. Born Shortheath, Staffs.  6 ft. 1 in. 11st.

LEN GLOVER. Cost £80,000, then a record fee for a winger, when signed from Chariton in November 1967.  Subsequently was dogged by injuries, and this season has been his first real chance to prove himself. Has played a prominent part in Leicester's all-the-way Cup run. Born at Milngavie, Dumbartonshire.  5 ft. Iip in.  12 st. 6 Ib.

MALCOLM MANLEY. At 18 the youngest player in the side that brought Leicester to Wembley. A former Scottish Youth International, he came into the side at the end of last season and this winter has developed into a commanding centre-half, who is being tipped for Under-23 honours. Born Johnstone.  5 ft. 11 in.  11st. 4 Ib.

ALAN WOOLLETT. One of Leicester's most improved players this season. He took over from injured Peter Rodrigues and has proved a steady and reliable defender. Originally a centre-half. Born Leicester.  5 ft. 10i in.  11 St. 2 Ib.
