Take a look at this Sheffield Wednesday team photo. How many of the players can you name?

McAnearny(T) Froggat? Swan Gibson, O'Donnel Curtis Finney Quixall Shiner and Kay.

Don't remember the keeper and not 100%certain on one or two.

Its around 1957. A long time ago when I was just a nipper on the South Stand Terrace.

 

Somebody is sure to put me right though.

It's the 22nd September1956.

 

Tom McAnearney, Ron Staniforth, Peter Swan, Dave McIntosh, Albert Broadbent, Ralph O'Donnell, Norman Curtis

 

Alan Finney, Albert Quixall, Roy Shiner, Dave Cargill

 

 

 

Aaaargh! Spent about three hours trying to work out which game it is!

 

I'd worked out that the guy on the right in the front was David Cargill; it was tradition then with team pics to have five sitting down in 7 to 11 order and if he was no 11 it couldn't be anyone else. But on the basis that no 10 is missing from the front and must be Red (standing between Tommy Mac and Swanny) I couldn't work out which match it could possibly be bearing in mind it's clearly early season and that Cargill only played in a handful of games. Never even considered that it might not be Froggatt.

 

Anyhow, thanks for putting me out of my misery.
