Two superb photos, Trevor, not seen that second one before. Terrific header from Waldo to win the Charity Shield for us in '73 at Maine Road. It was third time lucky for us in the Charity Shield having lost to Tottenham in 1921 and drawn against Wolves in 1960.Tricky Trevor wrote: ↑Mon Nov 28, 2022 1:25 pmNo squad today. just Dobo with a couple of trophies.

Re: 1960s BFC squad photo
Well, at least this was another trophy to add to the rest. We had a few cracks at this competition in the late '70's but this was by far our most successful, with the two wins home and away against Celtic probably the most memorable.Tricky Trevor wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 3:57 pm'78-'79 Anglo-Scottish Cup Winners.

The final against Oldham was also a two-legged affair and I remember driving home after the first leg at Oldham having won 4-1 and thinking the Cup was already won. However we somehow contrived to lose the home leg 0-1 against a poor Oldham side.
Sadly the squad was now heading in the wrong direction with just an average finish to the season in Division Two, but things were about to get even worse the following season.

I had my programme from the home leg autographed by a few of the side. They use to come playing tennis at Loveclough park. I could stand at the back door and watch them.

There is an unnamed player between David Miller and Vince Overson. I think it is Mark Allen can anyone confirm?

Re: 1960s BFC squad photo
I too think it is Mark Allen. I saw him play for our reserves once as a trialist after he'd been away from the club for a while. He looked quality compared with what was on show for Burnley but we didn't re-sign him.
I don't remember Billy Wright. It seems he's had a long and quite interesting but not overly active career, mostly in Australia and as a New Zealand international:

For instance, where are the likes of Tommy Cassidy, Kevin Young (who played 37 of the 46 games that season), Stuart Robertson and even Flynny who had a couple of substitute appearances ?
And yet there are players featured who never kicked a ball that season, Billy Wright, Billy O'Rourke and even Lee Dixon.

A very special season was '08/'09, with a slow start (something like two points from the first four games) followed by a memorable finish.......a perfectly balanced side all performing at the very top of their game......some fabulous goals along the way, but those final three, Pato and Thommo away at Reading and Wade's unforgettable strike at Wembley, will live long in the memory.Tricky Trevor wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 7:12 pmSame again for our 2009 Play off winners.

We've not been back to the Roggerham Gate since, but when we do I will get the project to display all the squad names under the photo back on track. It would be a shame to let all the great efforts and superb detective work which went into identifying everyone go to waste!
Just as an aside to the original team photo - my mother-in-law was looking through the thread and recalled that her best friend back in the day was at one time the girlfriend of Bill Poynton when he was with the Clarets.

Re: 1960s BFC squad photo
Well I've run out of our trophy winners but before starting with just squads through the ages here's our reserves from the 1961-'63 period.
Double Central League winners and Lancashire Senior Cup to boot. So many of them went on to have substantial EFL careers and most at the top level.
Back: Dave Walker, Walter Joyce, John Talbut,?, Harry Thomson, Brian O'Neil, George Bray(manager), Willie Irvine, Willie Morgan.
Front: ?, Freddie Smith, Trevor Meredith,?, Andy Lochhead, Arthur Bellamy,Ian Towers, Johnny Price Mick Buxton
I'm sure Royboy can fill in the blanks and I know I'll be embarrassed for missing them.

That's Ronnie Fenton on the back row and Peter Simpson behind the trophy on the front row.
Peter lived on Ingham Street in Padiham, literally a stone's throw from Gawthorpe and could walk there in a couple of minutes for training.

Red and White stripes, but the odd thing is that was not the second strip in the 1919/20 season.
On the official team photo for that season it's clearly white shirts, white shorts and claret socks.
