Tin School top of the league!

This bostin’ football team picture from the mid-1960s comes to us courtesy of Raymond Wootton of the Sport-N-Tackle shop in High Street, Bilston.

Raymond actually took the photograph himslelf, of this double winning team from Ettingshall Junior School (better known as the Tin School).

This was just before the World Cup of 1966, and Raymond quips, “I’d like to think that this was the team that inspired England to win the World Cup!” Enthusiasm He son was a member of the team, which adds to his pride of course, and he recalls that the lads’ enthusiasm knew no bounds (take note, England 2010).
