No, I don't think that's Fred.olefogey wrote: ↑Thu Feb 26, 2026 9:18 pm Great picture of the players of that era. Does anyone else think that doesn't look like Tony Field between Mick Hartland and Eric Harrison? I know the face is obscured, but it looks more like Fred Else to me. Mind you, I wouldn't be putting too much money on it!
Anyone for McGarryism? Seriously?

McGarry channeling The Fonz there. Maybe it's an omen and we need to find Miss Zigger for some words of encouragement. A job for PJ who will have her autograph and hopefully a phone number in a little book somewhere.
We will foller the soccer, over land and sea...

WG . . . very good . . . I would have been 11 at the time that photo was taken, and a squeaky-voiced soprano in the school choir! I guess if Ms Zigger (what, 16? 17?) had given me her phone number she might have faced consequences! And if I had accepted her phone number, knowing Pirate Ron was clearly enamoured with her, then I would have faced consequences too, for crossing his path and incurring his ire. I suspect Ron is someone you wouldn't want to incur the ire of . . . if she had been a number in my little red book then I would have been a number in The Pirate's Big Black Book.Wintergreen wrote: ↑Fri Feb 27, 2026 8:11 am McGarry channeling The Fonz there.

I can report that Glenys Currie lived on Cowlarns Road at that time, she went on to become a chemist but I'm told, sadly, she has died. (More info could be forthcoming as my harem of girlfriends who knew her rack their collective memories.) I do know she and her sister, Liz (also, sadly, deceased at a quite early age) used to go to Vickers Sports Club.pjdaly wrote: ↑Fri Feb 27, 2026 11:50 amWG . . . very good . . .
