A few well known locals on here but we will do very well to name all this lot

Well known? You ARE joking, Scholes Malc...aren't you???

Jarvo, read the posting "well known locals". If you read more carefully instead of jumping in too quickly with your misinformed comments you'd get less grieve.

Lord only knows where you're finding these pictures Malc,I know a few :
Tracey Grundy front left, Ronnie Braithwaite and Dave Walsh back right , might be Ged Dickinson next to Walshy ?
is it Nicky Kiss holding the trophy (right) with Billy Williams above him ?
I feel I should know more of these

Just below Keith Mills, Mick Nanyn. You can only see his face.

Is that Alan Greenall front right? Anthony Murray and Mick Nanyn either side of trophy I think. Alan Ratcliffe on the left holding bottle maybe.

holding shield - on right is it Ness Flowers and on the left the name of 'Kolias' keeps coming to mind but I stand to be corrected?

Comment by: 1934granada on 31st December 2012 at 20:07

Come to think about it, Malc. I do remember Wigan signing a player named George Kolios.

Comment by: Scholes Malc on 1st January 2013 at 10:01

i think YT is correct with Murray holding shield (and others as well)
others?

bottom right Malcolm Smith?

Back: third from right Kev Swan?

Hi All, what an awesome photo this is I’m a niece of Anthony Murray was just wondering any of you could contact me? Would love to ask some questions about my Uncle and his time playing for Wigan. Thanks
