| A bit of history for you here lads, I thought I would share this photo from 1937, George VI's Coronation year. My uncle, Bill Rankin, is 5th from the left, top row.

| Great photo! A couple of those blokes on the back row look like they've had their heads "photo-shopped" onto the photo  |

And the player front row 4th from left with a black eye and a theatre dummy on his right knee has a proper pair of rugby boots!

lots of manly haircuts on that picture, plenty of windolene been used.
Non of this poncey looking fades and dodgy quiffs as seen in SL today.
The beards are ok though.

My rhymes and records they don't get played
Because my records and rhymes they don't get made
And if you rap like me you don't get paid
And if you roll like me you don't get laid:6355.jpg |

Often wondered about the 'extra' players. I have the original photo here and that's how it appears. Who would have thought Photoshop existed in the 30's? lol

| I submitted the above photo to the Wire2Wolves heritage site. I've had a wonderful reply from Neil Dowson at the club this morning, may answer a few questions as to who the other players are  |
