Salford Was a Vet!

It was interesting to hear from TF that Salford Harriers recently celebrated their 125th anniversary. This prompted me to refer to Ian Campbell's "History of the Horwich RMI Harriers" which tells us that our local club was formed in 1924, just 85 years ago; so when Horwich was formed, Salford was already a vet!

Chatting to a couple of guys on the Pike this morning, it turned out that they were (or at least on of them was) Salford Harriers. I said that it was unusual to see members of their club with dirty legs. Looking at TF's photo, the one doing the talking looked like it was the smiley guy with his arms folded in front of the girl in pink far left ~ would it be him TF?
