This is my dad (Bert Halliwell) and my cousin, Duggie Mole. Thank you for posting this Ian. The Sportsman's club was run by Uncle Bert Roberts. My mum (Joan Halliwell) and my papa (also Robert Halliwell) all worked there ... So nice to see this photo because I left Wigan 36 years ago and live in California .. Thank you.
