It’s because HH site is so good, Garry! Now when are you going to post the St Anne’s Cadzow league and Shinwell cup winning side of 1957? If you leave it any longer it could be too late!😀

Hi Teddy, thanks for that! I don’t think I have looked in to this. If you have a story then send it to me and I will publish it for you! 😀

Garry, the story is in the fact that we did the double so many moons ago! I would guess that some, hopefully none, of the team have passed away. The parents and supporters ferried us home. When we reached our particular street the player was carried aloft holding the Shinwell cup. I lived in Queens Drive in the new (then)Eddlewood scheme. Unforgettable even after all these years. I can’t remember which school we beat in the final at Douglas Park, but I am sure someone will when you publish the photo and story!
best regards

Doherty’s pool team didn’t need a story.
I give up.

Hi Teddy,
This all sounds interesting.
I do want to write a story about this.
Can you tell me as much info as you can on the pool team and include what you have written here. If you have some pictures then can you also send them too.
I will put a story together for you. Can you please send all the info that you have to me by email. Send it to historichamilton@icloud.com.
I look forward to hearing from you.
