Hi Gadget,

Thanks for looking, but I don't believe that's my George Bradshaw.  He was definitely born in 1913 (in Southport, Lancs) and was a goalkeeper.   

Are there perhaps any others with the same name?

Cheers!

Wow, Gadget, that was fast! 

Thank you so much for the information - I really appreciate it.  (I didn't know he played in all those places!)

My Dad and I played on the wing - must have got the speed from Uncle Billy

I take it you were a left winger Gadget!

Yep - and my Dad 

I think Grandad Joe was an inside left/centre forward. I'll have to look in my Chirk book for the details of him again 

anyone you'd like info on William?

Not for the moment thanks Gadget,this is just a thread I read with intense interest!

Hi
Not sure if you will be able to help.
I have 3 old photos of football teams, no idea who they are.
I have a feeling one could be from Lancashire area.  Do you have an Ernest Shaw born 1882 Yorkshire, or any Shaw around that time?
I could possibly try to scan the photos and upload to see if anyone recognises the teams.  They may just be local football teams (probably in Yorkshire), I'm really unsure.  One says 1910/11.
Thanks

Hi 

I've not got an Ernest Shaw listed but it would be worth putting up the photos to see if anyone recognised them - either on here or a new thread in the Common Room 

Simon might have some info.
