I thought it was Roy its a pity it isn't in colour as he had bright coloured red hair. Also I recognise another one although I don't know his name. Middle row 4th from left.

Middle row fourth from left is Joe Egan and on the extreme left is Ronnie Hill

Front row second from the left, looks like a young Johnny Sheridan who played at Wigan Old Boys and professional RL at St. Helens.

Thank you for that Bill I only remember his face from school or church. Was he related to the other Joe Egan the footballer?
