Malcolm Billingham Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Are there any Batley fans on here who may have any old Batley team photos from the late 1920's early 1930's. A bit of a longshot I know. I have recently started the task of putting a face to every Castleford Heritage player. I am missing 82 players and of them 4 have a connection to Batley. They are HERBERT WHARVILLE (1/4/29), GEORGE STAFFORD (3/9/29), WILLIAM R SMITH (13/12/30) and CYRIL WILLIAMS (Aug 1938). If anyone has a head and shoulders pic or team pic with any of these players on or can point me in the right direction where I may find any photos, your help will be gratefully received. Many thanks.

phildog Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Maybe approach Terry Swift, he may have inherited some old stuff from his predecessor at the Batley News. He is on FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you approached the club, as they have a substantial heritage project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Billingham Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 Thank you for posting the photo but I cannot see any of the players that I mentioned. There are a couple of players with the same surname but the initials are different (Smith & Williams). Again thank you for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
