Netherton FC c1938 - photo from Mel Morpeth, Facebook Bygone Bedlington group. Two players identified by George Railton who commented :-  George Railton The guy first left of the cup holder was my Uncle ,John Railton ,he went on to play for Glentoran in the Irish premier league and was then offered a contract by West Ham but turned it down. 

George Railton The guy far bottom right in the overcoat with the upturned collar was my Dad Isaac Railton. He also played for Netherton and Bedlington United and always that he was a better footballer than my Uncle John!!

Just like buses, two turn up at once. Found this one,  also Bygone Bedlington group, from Mary Mclean, who found it among her dads collection but doesn't have any info. Another member of the group,  Sheila Parr , posted :-  Netherton 1937 38 football team the best ever winning 3 trophies in that season sorry no names 😊
