This is a follow up to a picture added to Picture Stockton showing the Norton Juniors Team from 1942. The team won a cup and league double with my late father Tom Birtle as captain. This picture is much nearer to the camera and I can only hope someone can recognise some of the other players…

Pretty sure that Ted Waller is front row, second from the right…
Would think Ted Waller, George Malloy and Jack Fox would be amongst them.
Thank you for sharing this photograph. I feel sure that my father, Ken Sheraton, would have known these people as he told me he used to get paid a few pennies as a child to keep the scoreboard right. He was born in 1929 and would have been around 13 at the time. I well remember the first photo that was posted as I thought it possible that my uncle Gordon, his brother, could have been front row second from right, but having seen this photo I don’t think it was him.
