    To the right of Milne, Pitcher?
    Between Stuart and Peake, Walsh?
    Never getting the player directly behind Leaburn!
    Behind Melrose looks like John Pearson but pretty sure he was at Leeds by then?

    I don't think much about the setting for this year's Love Island.

    Think it’s Paul Williams between Milne and Stuart.

    Loved that team

    Mark Reid was with us then so could be the hidden one behind Leaburn.

    It is definitely CTCRM, Commando Training Centre Royal Marines.

    To follow up my post above, I have the pennant presented to  the CTC and the shirt worn by Garth Crooks from the game V the Corps team that same week.

    An amusing aside re the shirt.  We swapped shirts at the end of the game but were told to go and ask for ours back by the manager.. Obviously very embarrassing at the time but Charlton let us keep theirs.

    I had promised, a long time ago, to supply a bit of history referring to what is written on the plaque about 'the Puffing Billy'. I will try harder!

    P.S it is called a helmet W P - Woolsey Pattern.
