"We have our cricket team"

Group portrait of Bottesford cricket eleven and umpire. The picture is a double-exposure, which makes some of the identifications difficult, but with Michael Bradshaw’s help (all the way from Australia) the caption has been completed.

Miss Spick identified the following – Back row from left: Sanders (umpire), Police Constable W Bradgate, Jo Jallands (team captain), John Heath, Ernie Wright, Aubrey Norris, Ernie Wright and Albert Topps. Front row from left: ? , Jack Moppett, Bert Miller, Ernie Jallands (cousin of Jo Jallands). The Jallands were part of the family of C.M.Jallands, who had a painting and decorating business.

The person on the back row down as Bernard Box with a ? along side is not Bernard, it is Ernie Wright.

Thanks, Michael. I will edit the caption. It can’t be easy identifying some of the players, with the picture being a double-exposure. Good for you, Neil
