Alan Edgar (Eggy1948)

Ali Mudd, of Morpeth, says he has been to get them and they are now both safe. I didn't ask what he has done with them.

Not that I would suspect that these two have planned their escape from domesticity, I suspect they had a couple of helping hands to get to where they are now. Posted on the Bedlington remembered site by Christine Townley :- Just been down to the foundry and hapenny woods and spotted two domestic rabbits running wild. Please share So if anyone is looking to give two rabbits a home then get yourself down to the Free woods

Terriers still 3rd but Hullbridge Sports FC (population of Hull = 260,000+) have moved into 1st

On the 'not sure?' photo Mick Stewart (Facebook - Morpeth History Matters) says :- looks like a few Widdrington lads in that photo, I think 2 is Wilf Kelly, - 10 Jimmy Bolton and 11 Archie Morton....................could be wrong though.

Cheers Joe, we did consider the Welfare team, but just can't prove it. We have a couple of photos of the Dr Pit Welfare team - 1944-45 season, wearing hooped shirts, and one from 1949-50, wearing striped shirts but we can't match up any of the players in the 'unknown' team with the others. The 'unknown' team against the 1949-50 Welfare team :-

This photo was posted on the Bygone Bedlington site and the brother & sister that posted it have been told it's Bedlington Mechanics, post WWII. Their granda is No 3 = Charlie Rand and his friend is No 12 Ned Riddle. The two named used to work as mechanics for Jennings of Morpeth. We have had the local Bedlington Mechanics 'historians' - Ovalteeny & Reedy + his dad - check the photo out and they all believe this is not a Bedlington Mechanics team. None of the people in the photo; the cup & shield or the pavilion can be identified. Anybody on this site any ideas?

Most identified and No 6 identified herself, and the event :-

An ex Barrington lass, Lynne Maddison, has asked if anyone can help her identify the young ladies in this photo believed to be at Bedlington Methodist Church Fayre.

Merry Xmas to everyone

James Matthewson - (Parliamentary Assistant House of Commons?) - just posted this on the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group site b:- And after another comment, from Alan Edgar - Might need a wider audience James - if someone had contacts with people on the local newspapers it might help. There may have been more voted but over the 4 sites I posted the request on only 20 members have commented that they have voted over the last week. As Bedlington Terriers appear to be the only North East team of the 19 teams in the list I think someone with more influence over the county may be of benefit he replied :- ....... will see what can be done 👍

On Facebook group - Bedlington Remembered a member, Guy Stoker, sent me a link to a song, The Bedlington Buzz, he had written and performed :-

Terriers now 3rd

Just checked the positions - last week it was Bedlington (population 18,000+) Terriers 2nd behind Gainsborough (population 22,000+) - this week Bedlington has leapfrogged Gainsborough but Aylesbury (population 56,000+) has leapfrogged them both Aylesbury FC The SRD Stadium, Haywood Way, ... Bedlington Terriers FC Doctor Pitt Welfare Park, Park... Gainsborough Trinity FC Northolme, Gainsborough
