If anyone could recognise a face in there or the school building, that would be great.

Default Amble Boys Club

I have an old photo of Amble Boys Club in the early 60s, where we won the East Northumberland Junior League and were runners up in the Northumberland Boys Club Cup Final, played at Hunters Moore, the old NUFC training ground. We had a reunion in 2007, where there were only 2 missing, one had passed away and the other was attending his daughters wedding.

I forgot to add that I was reading the local paper today and there is a possible chance that the boys club will close, unless it gets some more support. It would be a pity if this was allowed to happen.
