Ray Littler - great left winger !!! the goalkeeper was Harry Stevens. Sad to hear about Harry Rothwell. These really were a great set of lads to play with. I am the tall extremely good looking one in the middle at the back ! DJJ 12/11/2010.

Hi all you moggy laners.This was a cracking little team.Sadly Jimmy Dearnley died in 1993.A good stopper,if you ran into him it was like hitting a brick wall,a solid full back. This team ran from late 59/60/61,when Alan Smith,Dave Jones& Roy Stout left ML for Leigh Tech.All the ones in this team plus the rest of the A&B classes were really sound individuals.It was great times,never to be forgotten.The next ML reunion is scheduled for end of October'15. If not already in contact,get in touch please.'Robby'.
