Hi Phil
Have you got any recollection of a reunion for the 1947/48 Cheshire Senior Cup winners team. Think it was held 1987/88.
Also can you provide me with Gordon Smith playing record with the Albion 1947/8/9 ?
Cheers

Watcha Eli!
Reckon the get together was in 1991, think they used the Fourways for it. It was actually to celebrate our NPL Title so not only would the likes of Schofield, Ashley, Robinson, Radcliffe, Smith etc have been there.

Cheers Chad . Your a diamond. I have got the team photo for 1956/7 if you have not got it. Posted it on Facebook.
My pleasure.
I ain’t got a team picture for 56/57 so would very much like to get hold of it.
Couldn’t locate it on Facebook, under what heading is it posted please.
I can then upload onto the Seasons Archive on the website.
That section within Information is coming along nicely but if you or anyone does have suitable photos from yesteryear then please let me know.
My email address is jpeter.lyon7@gmail.com Phil . Send me an email and I will send photo back to you.
