It's been a wet Sunday after the match and I have been busy on the scanner......
One or two old and bold might recognize a couple of these misfits.

If I asked you to name them, then that would be relatively easy. What I want is the name of the person that was in this Band at this time, but didn't make this photo call. Think about the instrumentation, and then the person should be quite easily named.

Is it you?
I recognise a couple of faces, well, 3 in fact... and John as a Drum Major!

I'm still worried about what JC is doing 'down there' and so is Roger J by the way he's looking at him...

I`m surprised the H&S bods haven`t made it compulsory for Bulgers to wear ear defenders in front of trombone holders

I'll give a litttle clue. It's not me....or Willie Thorne (Stu). but he is a Tenor Sax Player. He was on board, and nothing untoward was happening, he just missed the photo shoot.

I don't get it - if Steve Shutt is there (Tenor) why would you have another?

Surely having a hornist would be preferable!

Tenor Sax? Dunno!

Hmmmmm, having said that - any saxomathingyist that's stood to my right in the past may not agree...

I guess the LOUD right notes were just about OK, but the wrong LOUD ones?
