Hello Jimmy, remember me from school? The one in the middle with the ball isn't Stey Ratchford, it looks like Mick Fedigan to me, and the other one you didn't know is Tony Hull (aka Hatty). Dolly's name was Paul, although I don't remember him being interested in sport.
Cheers Phil, yes i remember you,didnt you live close to st judes on tyrer ave?. your,e right it was mick fedigan and tony hull, memory a little fuzzy these days. i,ve got a photo of st judes school team to put on later. you might know some faces on that .
That's right, my mum still lives in that house on Tyrer Ave. I work at Heinz with Bob Hinds and bump into Ian Whistlecroft every now and then at Latics, but haven't seen most of the rest of these guys since we left school.
Mike says that most of this team is made up of the Rugby and cricket team. And how sad to see Tommy More bulldozed. A lot of great times and memories.
