I've just come across some old negatives that have been tucked away amongst my stuff and I need some help with identification. I know they must all be in the Championship winning season because the negs have the team photos with the cups - there's quite a few like this but I like this one with Woody sticking his tongue out.





Anyway, the first one that has me puzzled is this one. At first look I thought there were only Leigh players in the photo, but you can see the other team in the dark socks - who were they, and how come they were allowed to play in similar strip?

Does anyone know who this team is? If I zoom in it looks a little like the Castleford crest but I'm only guessing.

Is this team Featherstone?

Looks like Fev to me

I think it's Cas as well

Is the first one not widnes?

Is the hoops not Halifax?

What strip did Wigan play in, in those days? Could the hoops not be Wigan?

Here's another one of the team with the hoops:

think it is cas is player on left Barry Johnson?

is other player John Kear?

OMG I think you're right - how funny is that?

When I have ID for them, I'll post a link to the full size images, you can zoom in on then.
