All I want for xmas...

By ghost of mensforth -

I wrote a message, tied it to a balloon and sent it up the chimney for Santa Claus...it read:
Dear Santa,
I am the ghost of mensforth(its a long story...)
I would be very grateful if you could give me the following xmas presents:
a) One of the concrete boulders from the blue bit at the pyry
b) A 1" square grey tile from our beloved pyramid
c) One of the concrete maps of Kenton Bar
Hope this does not inconvience you too much,
(I believe in you Santa and know you exist)

kenton bar football team 1974-75

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
