Used to watch them in the 1950's. Players I remember were Frank Leyland,Tom Pey, my old friend Colin Peet and later Tony Stock
Remember Frank Leyland he was headmaster at my school, he loved his cricket I think his sons played there as well.
I remember a football pich being down there in the 1960's. It wasn't on the cricket pitch as it had old wooden goalposts up. Does anyone know where it was in relation to this picture?
Gordon. I was at WGS with Tony in the 1960- he was really good even then. I think the 70s and 80s would be his heyday with WCC
Dave Lewis. Yes both myself and brother Peter played for Wigan as well as Dad (Frank). Unfortunately he died 3 years ago this week, but was still watching over his back wall up to the day before he died.
