Here is a photo of a West Derby Football team featuring a local lad who represented Stoke City and England.
He was a mate of my father (born 1908) and he lived in Fish Terrace opposite the village hall. The first Asian to play for the country. Soo second from left middle row.
Frank Soo played locally, for Prescot Cables, before joining Stoke City

A book about Frank Soo was published recently called 'The Wanderer' by susan Gardiner. Frank played alongside Stanley Matthews for Stoke and England
