Jeff Trice Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Click the link to see a 1962 photo of a local team which I think features MISA stalwart Keith Lewis on the right at the end of the back row... http://www.margatefc...Keith Lewis.jpg ...be good to know any other names if anybody recognises any faces - just in case somebody went on to play for Margate and I don't have a photo of them.

Klewliss Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Thanks for the memories, Jeff. Incidentally the hair was borrowed from one of the Marx Brothers! The team was Hartsdown and the photograph was taken circa 1940 sorry I mean 1960 something. Hartsdown, after being formed by a merger of MYLAF (work that out but there was politics involved!) and Westbrook, went on to take their place in the Thanet Senior Sunday League Premier division after winning Div.2 and Div.1 in successive seasons. We lost in the final of the Morgan Cup to Margate 'A' many of the victor's players going on to appear for the Gate's first team. I'm working on the names just two escaping me at present. They were of course much older than me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Knight Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Back row standing next to Keith Lewis - would that be Roy Starling ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Trice Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Scanned in a few local team photos Keith but you were the only person I recognised in any of them. So probably nobody of use to me in the photo then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klewliss Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Here we go my best effort at this time to identify my colleagues, the two I'm struggling with, not having seen them for over forty years, I shall keep working on! Back row L to R. Brian Wood, Roger Jenkins, Barry Tooke, Chris Davies, Roy Starling, and yours truly. Front row L to R. A.N.Other, Tony Wilson, Colin Rouse, John Hopkins, Brian (Smith?). Brian may have had the odd game in goal for Margate. Chris played for Margate in their FA Youth Cup side. Two, who shall remain nameless for fear of reprisals!, played for a team on the other side of the island!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Trice Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 Good effort after so many years Keith, thanks for the names. Unfortunately none of those played for Margate's first team - only name I recognise is Colin Rouse who was the brother of Dave Rouse who played for Margate in the 70's and Thanet United in the 80's.

I am Spartacus Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Was wondering if Keith with that hair was the first person in Thanet to play with a ponytail or bunches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
