    I believe the one behind Lightowler with the cap on is Bobby Ham and the one at the back looks very much like Charlie Racketraw but he didn't join Avenue till after finishing at City in the late 60s.
    Pat Liney at the back to the right of John Hardie.

    That’s the one. I used to go there as it had a cellar place with good music. No beer as I was only 15 or 16.

    I can't imagine playing rugby on one. It was bad enough playing football.

    It never deterred some of the better players from making the odd sliding tackle, the scabs on their legs never heald from one game to another.
