I took this pic at half time during a friendly played on Worsley Mesnes' ground, the people I can name are: Brian Arrowsmith, Lawrence Sherrington, Keith Bates and Mr McNab. Greenough St FC came into being when Kevin Webb obtained 11 jerseys and a ball for 11 shillings from Wigan Athletic round about 1962. Mr Taylor also had connections with the club at this time.
Remember the game,it was Graham Bates I brought him to play for us used to work with him ,I just left a comment on greenough street sight,our first league game was against Standish b d a I can still name all the squad if interested get in touch ,my dad was Mr Taylor he bought us our first strip,Brian used to jump in the canal and swim for the ball we played on st pats not a blade of grass in sight,those were the days.gordon
