Is that Alan Ashcroft from Highfield at centre half for Wigan?

Jarvo - Wigan's Alan Ashcroft would have been about 18 year's-old at this time, so I guess there's a chance it could be. Just two years before this game, Everton's Barnett Hurst Maher and Wigan's John Pearson had played alongside each other in the England Schoolboys team. John Pearson later signed-on for Man Utd - the same day as did George Best.
