Birmingham Amateur Football Teams

Whilst logged on, here's a shout out for the old Midland Red team who used to play in the Coronation League Div 6 in the early '70s. Roger Brown, bus driver, was our captain. We were no good but we were dedicated like so many of those Sunday morning teams - rocking up with hangovers to Cofton Park, Hay Barnes, Lyndon, Perry Park etc to play on windswept and boggy pitches just for the love of the game.
 
I am the Goalkeeper Don Walker, Eamonn & Matt are still good friends of mine. Played with Eamonn and Matt for many years after. I went to Sheldon Heath Comp, there was 5 of us playing for B'ham.
 
Great to hear Don - remember me to 'Locky', a former classmate. I remember him as a classy midfielder and Matt as a domineering centre half.
