The big geezer at the back looks like The King of the Cobbles himself, Dick Richardson. Tough little nut at front centre, smiling, looks like Frankie "Tiger" Taylor.

The kid who worked for Lonsdale, at a guess, is it Johnny Cheshire (the one with the gap in his teeth, bottom left)?

David He played for Fulham with Dennies Brother and the Goalkeeper. The other 8 were Boxers. Before the game it was agreed for us to score a Few goals to get the crowd going. We got 5 in the first Half, The second Half we Kicked the F*ck out of Them. :DDD

It was tongue in cheek scrap, he just struck me as a real lookalike for Gazza.

Fabulous picture. What a treat to have played in those types of game, with fighters and no shinpads....
