Thanks very much for the replies.



Mystery almost solved. Just the comp to sus out.

What about the lad on the Kit mans shoulders,that might be my neighbours cousins lads dad.

And who are the two 'cheeky chappies' at the back

No, some were long gone by then, Fairhurst was at Borough for example


If it is Wigan 7's, it may be August 1977

That was called the Farrell cup wasn't it?........pretty sure that had finished before this photo.

Spoke with Terry Bilsbury earlier he thinks its the WIGGIN 7,S around the late 70,s

The one on Alan Fairhurst shoulder appeared in the 60,s tv show the Adams Family
Terry Bilsbury use to employ it in the 70s/ 80,s to nick pints of tables

My word Dessie that's some 'fro!
Fair play!

It must be 77 or 78 as that's when John Mantle was coach

Allan Rowley reckons it's the Swinton 7's

Loved watching Alan Fairhurst play. Excellent scrum half.
