That's very interesting... :thumbup:

I knew Fred Keenor was on the front lines but not the others. Every one a hero in my book and sadly, we can see some didn't return to play again... :cry:

That list of Men Killed under "Roll of Honour" Just brings a tear your eyes and shows how many of our young British Men Gave their lives in this terrible War.

We do not know how lucky we are.

Lest we NEVER forget our Brave service personnel.

Interesting.. cheers for that and somewhat sobering.. maybe some of the modern lot should read things like this, just before they're thinking of putting the head bands on..

That's why in the history of our club nobody comes remotely close to Fred keenor in legendry status.
