It looks like Liegh and Charley Pawsey. ( I Don,t blame Ernie for going down)

Doesn't strike me immediately as Charlie, he always had a moustache, and I think he was taller, however, I've no idea at the moment which team it might be.

Difficult to tell,could also be Charlie Winslade with the skull cap and it could be Oldham.

If the game was played at Central Park, shouldn't Wigan be the team in stripes?

In those days it was courtesey to allow the visitors to wear their normal strip.
