This is the start of me going to see some great games in the JOC
My brother Albie would take me to watch these teams in the JOC him playing great days
Me playing in the street (Canal St )
Who did l have as my mentors? Our Albie Ronnie Scott Jonny King Brian Munrow and loads more when l went to watch them play in the JOC Bootle St James Benson Cambridge Waterloo Aintree Pentagon YM Mariana could go on.

I worked with one of the greatest managers in the JOC Mick Goodwin who managed Pentagon lots will remember that team in the 70s
John Harris will give a little history on the teams we played for with Mick.

Well never knew Gerry had so much history in the game Gerry Bridge what a player he was in the joc played for Waterloo and loads more teams

I could write a book on all the memories but like the research on history on the JOC.

Looking back on the history on the Joc some great players in the 1960s


What a place to play football Bootle

Look at them names

Best ball ever. If a well-off mate had one of these, you would let him join in the game.

Sorry Bob, had to include the action photo.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the centre background appears to show a hopelessly out of position Robert Hamilton,

caught ball watching.
