Is that Mark who was undermanager in A section as Parkside Closed?

Many happy memories as Overman on that face. In particular spending a whole weekend dragging panzer chain on to that top end when replacing it. Graham Kirby I knew from Tech and was a good lad to work with on opposite shifts. Wolfy was a character I also knew from Tech. Mark Callaghan was our Undermanager for the last couple of years.
Just surprised the Pic was taken with the B team officials when it should have been me and Mick Newton.

Talking of characters from St Helen's Tech what about Joe Mears from Agecroft and Disco Devanne the lecturer. Also Mr Pownall who would digress.
