All in all, the Boys League was superb, and I remember that Ormerod St, had a very good side which was mainly Accy Gram' School pupils, and run by Horace Frear.
Cheers T Jacky Eastwood that's the guy, ya I remember you playing for the All Whites, If I remember rightly there was a School verses boys league issue, especially when we were at the Holy Farm, Terry Neville tried to get kids baned from play in the boys league, insisting you all played for the school on Saturday mornings, can't remember if he succeeded as I was not involved, you know what my skills were at the beautiful game
