Slightly off topic – FIGHT THIS

By El Patron -

Dear Bozos,

I had an email from Rutter Carrol a few weeks ago in which he told me the following:

“North Tyneside Council has received demolition orders for Stephenson House and Norgas House, two of Ryder and Yates' buildings in Killingworth.  An application has been made to English Heritage for spot listing so fingers crossed that important examples of the north east's  architectural heritage are not lost for future generations to enjoy.”

 

FIGHT THIS TOOTH AND NAIL COMRADES!!!

Here is a photo I found during more extensive research in a library... I remember the football team played for the 'Bagnall Cup' and played 'derbys' v St Cuthbert’s and also v Mountfield, North Fawdon, Wyndham, Montague and Snow Street (we and everyone else always thrashed Snow Street at least 12-0-their home pitch was at an angle of 45 degrees...) Note the' flag pennants' which were inspired by the Leeds United strip from the 1973-74 season on the socks of some of the kids in the front row...these had the numbers of the players on. the 10 first team players are all wearing the blue top with yellow hoop:the' subs' are wearing... whatever! It looks like they must have won the Bagnall cup that year! Anyone recognise themselves or any of the players?... (The tecka is Mr Brownlaw, a true gentleman...) PS:Photo not taken at Kenton bar school-note the basketball net-maybe taken at Kenton school?...) Kenton Bar Pyramid Appreciation Society
