christ church 1968/9Christ Church team during the 68/69 season. I played full back, and am the tall guy 2nd from the right in the back row. Tough league back then Godfrey Dennis
Hi Bobby - left to right, back row as follows:
Dave Kelly (Mgr) Ian Perry, Steve Grindley, Philly Gill, Me, Jim Dolce.
Front Row:
Roy McCann, Mick Vasey, Alan Buckley, Will McGee, Kenny Kones & Martin Taylor.
The team won the Liverpool Cup in May 1969 at Bootle Stadium, referee Jack (or John) Crilly. Losing finalists I think was St Gerard’s or maybe St Mary’s.
Well well Jack Crilly would stand no messing on the pitch in them days
Thank you again Godfrey

My father Herbert William Willcox (Bert) is on the right of goalkeeper seated on chair
They must have had a great team Roberts School look at all the names from that school
Big thanks Bill Bill Willcox I played for Warwick Bolam Football team and the Coach for Bootle Boys was from our school was Mr Lloyd. I was part of last 16 group with team to be selected on the last training night which was Thursday. I had made a promise to my younger brother Allan I would come and support him in a final he was playing in for The Grammar School in Netherton. So I went to support him, missed last training session and teacher informed me and Walter France , who was the best goalkeeper in Liverpool area, that we would both never play for Bootle Boys whilst he was in this school, and we never did. I felt more sorry for Walter as he was my mate. Three players from our School who played at Anfield we’re snapped up my Liverpool and Everton
David Graham - Everton
Eric Porter - Liverpool
Hugh McCauley - Liverpool
That is so unfair

Salisbury street school football team. The little fella at the back is my partner Terry Dolan who grew to be 6 ft!! The rest of the team were older than him but he was chosen because he was a great footballer. When he was due to leave school Liverpool schoolboys wanted him but it meant he d have to do another year in school and he said no!!

Billy Sargent far left on the bottom row next to him, Billy Munrow from canal st, Ronnie Scott top row second on the left. Then Freddie Thomas goalie in the center top row. Great days for me. Do hope that's correct Albie

The Bootle Juvenile Organisations Committee (J.O.C) considered forming, age-restricted, cricket and football leagues in May 1921.
The cricket league was playing during the summer of 1921. The football league was formed for August 1921.
At the time, there was a open Bootle Football League in existence. The Bootle League and the Waterloo-with-Seaforth and Litherland JOC (which preceded Bootle's) League tables for the 1920/21 season will be in the next post.
The J.O.C. Committee.
Meeting to consider the formation of a Bootle JOC Football League.May 30 1921.
Regards
Dan
